All right...so i was deleting EGR on my 83 2wd 22r. One bolt broke off in intake manifold...dang...no worrries. I will just extract it...um no, screw extractor broke next. Now I am really screwed... anyone got any ideas!? Thanx!
I understand helicoils are once the bolt is out. I have to get it out first. Any thoughts on getting it out?
I agree, Drill out and helicoil it, i have to do the same thing for an exhaust mani bolt. well i got the bolt out, but the threads in the mani are smooved out...
Im in the same boat, the top right manifold bolt, closest to the firewall is stripped out, just far enough in that I can compress the lock washer but not enough to cinch down the manifold, so my next step is to helicoil it, I got brand new M10x1.25 bolts and nuts though to swap out, in the mean time I deal with the awesome exhaust note, and slight smell lol
This happened to me too, but I managed to use a smaller bolt in the bolt that was stuck since it wouldn't come out. I have a problem with breaking bolts too A new manifold is on the way though for me.
