broken thermostat housing bolt
#1
Was replacing upper radiator hose today, and decided to replace t-stat while having to do fluid anyways. Put wrench on t-stat bolt, and barely applied pressure, and it broke off. So, now what are my options. probably going to have to pull off intake to get the bolt out, and possibly tap it. Thinking it may be easierto just buy a new intake manifold. Any opinions or advice?
