I had one break yesterday as it was a cheap alternator bolt that hold the water pump on. Summit, go figure. I got it out with a Ryobi extractor kit. Very easy took 45 minutes, that's including removing and install of the alternator.
1. Post a pic of what you think is the broken stud. worst case is you remove the timing cover. Most likely you can get away with using an easy out.
2. That is not whre the leak is from
3. Use brake clean and sharp razors
When you reassemble make sure everything is squeaky clean and dry.
1. After cleaning all of the muck off and going at them with steel wool for a bit it seems the end of one is cut different than the rest. Doesn't appear to be broken. Just curious as to why it go stuck. A few have some pretty bad corrosion. Looking in to replacing them.
2. Steel wool? or not necessary?
We just had this on another thread where someone broke a stud off. It has tons of what not to do it that made it more difficult to fix, cannot find it, ....anyone???
