The exhaust stud broke off. It has about an inch showing out of the cylinder (but does not have threads)..
How to remove? I know this has happened before and you will have the perfect solution so I am waiting patiently.. I know these are never easy. Remember, there are no threads left (cannot use two nuts sandwiched together) so I would like to try and get some sort of broken screw removal tool to fix... and would like to find a local alternative so I can fix over the weekend if possible. Thanks for the help in advance, Bryan |

Two ways that IC.
Get a stud extractor...it looks like a socket. OR Jamb a nut on there and weld inside the inner part of the nut to the stud. Once its cooled, use PB Blaster and turn it in and out very little, then heat, then PB blaster...rinse and repeat. Its really a PITA to get in there so I would suggest welding a nut on the end. Stud extractors would need to be purchased from a decent online tool supply firm, or snapon...they are not a sears item. Rich |
