Snapped Off Bolt!? Heres How To Remove For Less Than $10 Under 5 Minutes!

I was doing a valve cover job for a customer and notice a snapped bolt in the head. I wanted to extract it for them so i can put a new bolt in. Heres an easy way to remove if its a little more stuck than being able to spin right out. Hope you enjoy! #diy #howto #mechanic #snappedbolt #rust #tricks

@@bigfootswatching9986 it can suck, most times they are loose and can just be spun out with a pick or fingers, but this one had some rust

@@meeeoooow theres many ways, i already own the tool so figured id try to show people and easy way. Theres a chance with a hammer they could do more damage. This one only applies so much pressure so the chance of damage is greatly reduced

Hammerless nail setters/center punches like Mayhew make nicer heavier duty spring versions, but for $3.⁹⁹ in a pinch...😺
