Old tail pipe stuck in central heater

[ychowdhury]

Been trying to get an old stubborn tail pipe off my radiator.
Rather stupidly and after much frustration As you can see from the image I cut it off but now there's still a bit in the radiator and now I don't have grip for a pliers to turn it - any ideas?

If it's not too tight - tap something like a tapered chisel, narrow end in first, into the hole, then try some grips on the chisel. If it's too tight for that, you have no choice, but to level the edge with a file, centre pop, and drill it with a small drill bit. You should then be able to shrink, it in, to release it.

Hammer and flat bladed screwdriver on the rough cut bits?

hacksaw blade into the hole and do a few cuts taking care not to damage thread in the rad and it will come out using hamer and a flat blade

Judging by what can be seen of the old radiator's condition, it would probably be better just to replace it, rather then spending time trying to get the stuck tail out.
