Re: Bolt broke off Inside Hole



I had a bolt broken off in the block a couple years back.  Bolt up front that held the power steering pump bracket.  Tried all the magic techniques with no luck.  Finally ended up drilling it out and re-tapping to the next larger size.  That experience is what keeps me from changing exhaust manifolds now !!  Good luck with yours !

you may want to apply some heat with a torch around the bolt but not on the bolt and then put the easy out in the drilled out bolt hole if the lefthanded bit doesn't work. good luck..

I've had success removing a broken bolt by drilling a hole & hammering a slightly larger Allen wrench into it. I first sprayed a product called Moovit by Lloyds  to loosen the  seized bolt.

Don,
 
I had an exhaust manifold bolt that broke. I used a starter hole, then left hand drill. The bolt did not come out, but this work allowed the use of an easy-out. The bolt came out with no damage to the threads.

I have a 3/8 bolt broken off inside the hole about a 1/3". This is the bolt that holds the alternator to the head. I suspect it's bottomed out. I've tried a left hand drill bit and a Craftsman Drill-Out and I am not removing any metal. I'd sure like to not have to pull the head to remove it.

I'm no drill bit guru but the bits seem to be sharp.

Any suggestions or help anyone can offer? Is it more than drill straight in to get the hole started or what?
