    Default Need Help

    What should I do?
    Two bolts holding the waterpump, snapped.. One reachable and the other being unreachable (about 2cms or so inside)..
    I was thinking of maybe taking off the timing cover but one of the bolts wont undo and started stripping at the head..-Any tips on removing stubborn bolts? /any howtos to remove timing cover?

    I feel like giving up. :\

    Thats happened heaps of times at work. There is these tools you can buy called "easy outs". What you do is drill a hole into the broken/snapped bolt, then get the easy out and lightly tap it into the hole in the bolt you just drilled. Then get a shifter and turn it anti clockwise and it should come out.

    Not sure exactly where they bought them from but they usually buy there tools from Repco, and if Repco doesn't have them, Bursons is usually their second option.
