I have a 2.0 type IV from a 914 in my 912, it has the GA heads and Weber 40 IDFs. Today I was warming it up to change the oil and saw flashing from the intake manifold/head seal area when small backfires occured. Naturally I started to tighten the intake manifold bolts. On the #1 cylinder outboard nut, I felt too much play. I wiggled the stud and pulled it right out!

See the picture below. I was able to find more threads in the hole and thread it back in using 2 nuts so it isn't completely stripped. Only about 1/4" of threads came out with the stud.

What should I do here?
