 |
|
I took out the water pump and one of the bolts had seized and is stuck in there (the big long one along the bottom)
It pokes out a lil and we tried getting a oxy torch onto it to try heat it up and then get the plyer looking things and to screw it out but to no avail.
i cant really afford or have time to take the motor out and take the thing apart. so any help is appreciated.
How the hell do it get it out?
it pokes out prolly 1.5 cm.
Thanks hones |

| ITs snapped off you mean? Saturate it with Selley RP7, leave it for a few hours , do it again, till it works its way right in. Then latch on to it with vice Grips. IF that dont work, you might have to take out the timing cover and drill it out, if that dont work, you need a new timing cover (or dont use that bolt, might be able to get by without it?) |
