I snapped the bajo bolt off in the head, the one that goes through the oil feed line from the turbo. Then we tried to back out the snapped piece with an easy out and that snapped off inside the snapped bolt. We then tried to use a drill and it got us no where at all.

My question is can i use a metal/steel line or hose from the oil feed line and run it to a different source to get oil? maybe tap it into the oil cooler line or somewhere by the oil filter?

Please help me, I have no idea what to do now and the car hasto be out of where its at withing 2 days.
Any information is greatly appreciated.
Thanks alot.

You can use one of the stainless steel oil feed lines that attaches to the filter housing but how are you going to seal the old fitting on the head if you can't get all that stuff out of the head?

Look in the parts catalog for the feed line.

so i can just add extra steel line onto one of those and route it the the oil feed line on the turbo?

That hole is plugged up so good that only a few drips of oil come out. I was thinking of just getting something to make it completly stop leaking.

My question is though, Are you talking about one of the stain less steel lines, there are two of them.. That go to the oil cooler do you have any pics of can you draw something up or go into alittle bit more detail on this?
Thanks so much so far.

You really have to fix the head. It might just weep now but it's not under pressure like it will be on cold startup when you can see 100 psi oil pressure.

Wow, Thank you so much.. i'm glad i'm not totally screwed on this I was really worried.

As for the head, Do you think i would be able to fill that with something and then just file it down so there is no hole then or somehow do something like that?

Thanks again!
