Dear, the parts I just sold paid for that part ;)  Group: Members Posts: 1,568 Joined: 26-December 02 From: Williamsburg, VA Member No.: 16  |
There is about 1/8"-1/4" of threads above the head?
Can I remove this myself with standard tools (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif) |

Good luck Kerry, the exhaust studs can be a real pain. When I installed my six in my 914, I replaced most of them that looked questionable. I recently had one break off on me and found out a PO had put in a timesert that had stripped out. While drilling the hole out for an even larger time sert, there was a small piece of drill bit still stuck up in the hole I didn't see. Kicked the drill to the side and now I had a HUGE hole on my hands. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/mad.gif) Unless I wanted to pull the engine and weld it (Lots-o-work), I would up making my own time-sert out of another bolt. Anyway, guess I am saying take your time with it. It is only one broken stud, don't make it 6! They can be a PITA! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif)
