you mean you stripped out the top of the screw? you might need to cut a flat notch in it with a dremmel and use a flat head screwdriver.

Just be careful not to cut too deep with the dremel. You may want to also try an impact screwdriver...

A pink wire? Is it for a tachometer signal? Are you running an external coil?
