Noticed today that I had a broken bolt in my crankcase under the # 2 cylinder that holds the bottom half to the top half just above the muffler, was able to make a alignment tool to drill it through but after about two hours with a easy out the easy out broke, anybody know of anything that can drill a easy out its dam hard. |

You do need a miracle!! If you come up with something to drill or remove the easy out, patent it and make millions. Probably make quite a few dollas here. |

going to call rex supply and see if there is a diamond bit or something cause a carbide bit just burns up used up everyone I had. |

why dont u post a pic up, might be another alternative that ur just not thinking of. hard to say without seeing it. if u can get to it, tack a welding rod to it and pull it out. ur not gonna be able to drill through it with no bit. might have to just do whatever it takes and put a helicoil in it after. |

Some times a punch and a good hard rap with a hammer will break up the easy out. Take the head off if you can, you may be able to unscrew bolt and easy out has a package.. Use this has a last effort and use good eye protection. JD |

Its in the blind hole under the number two cylinder don't think it goes through it sheared right at the upper block so there is about a 1 inch dead spot in the lower block/cover will try to tap with hard punch maybe break it up but never been successful with that before but trying, also didn't notice any cracks in the crankcase. |

i have used masonary bits to drill out head & exhaust studs before. of course dat was in cast iron block & heads! an aluminum block with a steel bolt & a high carbon easy out jammed in it sounds like de makings of a disaster! for future referrence use left hand bits to get de bolts out. i stay away from "easy outs" dey become brittle after prolonged use and can really cause some headaches ![]() |
