Hmm, seems like there should be some "easy out" kinda tool that would
expand as turned CCW and grip the ID. But I don't knwo of one right off.
I do know they make reamers for cleaning out the ID of PVC fittings that
have been previously glued into. I understand yours is threaded, but
that might still be an option. At least to get a little extension or
nipple in to get up to a threaded fitting?
