How to get stripped Screw off?

I have two 7/32 screws that are stripped on my ignition coils. I can't get them off no matter what. How would you go about getting them off. My problem is all the coils are sparking except for one. I replaced all of them and it worked for a while and now it is doing the same thing, only sparking of 5 of the 6 sparkers. What do you think the problem is and what would you do? Thanks

Screw extractor should do the trick.

is it a screw or bolt? if I remeber most the things on coils are bolts, if bolts try a pair of vice grips, and get a new screw later.

Like MustangEater said, i didnt mention that i assumed that it was a bolt, vise grips may do the trick, but they may also chew up the coil, and i'm not sure how much you care about the engine bay, but i would do it causishly either way.
