ChristopherEP70 Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 Made a start on taking the head off my 4efte and noticed one of the head bolts are rounded. Any tips on getting it off? Quote
daniel_g Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 The bolts are M9 but if theyre rounded smash a M10 in. Quote
ChristopherEP70 Posted February 12, 2017 Author Posted February 12, 2017 I did try that only got a tiny bit of turn on the bolt Quote
daniel_g Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 What was stopping it? Was it just spinning?Try and mash an allen key socket of the same size into the headbolt with a hammer. Quote
patman Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 I'm not sure if this would work ( seing as the bolts are fooked anyway, could you not weld something to them and turn them that way Quote
5e colin Posted February 12, 2017 Posted February 12, 2017 Drill the bolt head off take the head of and unscrew the fucker bolt Quote
Ep82gi Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 I'm going with Dan on this one. Had this myself before. Hammer a Allen key socket in there n get a nice big bar and turn then out slowly Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
ChineseMafia Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 best option is to drill out the had ive had this issue plenty times when i just started to work on starlets drill out the heads is the best option Quote
ChristopherEP70 Posted February 13, 2017 Author Posted February 13, 2017 Was going to drill it out but chanced tapping a m10 into it. Loosened with a long bar and a bit of patients Quote
