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 |

Been there, done that. Here's the link: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=91292
Sears sells a nut/bolt extractor set. They're basically a hardened socket with teeth that cut into the side of the stud so you can torque it out. You need to hammer it on. All previous advice about heat and penetrant apply. |
