Exhaust manifold studs broke!

[kevingmorales]

Hello I accidentally broke 2 studs in my head, and I've been told to get a Black & Decker screw extractor set, it comes with 5 reversable piece, can you guy give me a procedure, so I can take these out?thanks.

There are a lot of different variables involved. Are the studs broken off flush to the head or are they reccessed or are they sticking out a little. Give me more info and I can help you. Travis

I'm not a big fan of screw extractors since most break off in the head. I usually drill them out and helicoil or you can try drilling them a little bit smaller than a torx bit and driving it in with a hammer, then turning the bit with a wrench.
