Man Kenny is the greatest he is my favorite mechanic to watch.i know alot but man he has taught myself so much on all his videos

[@hickorystx]

Feel better soon and take care of yourself!!!! Nice tip on seized water pump bolts. Stay well!!!! 🔧

[@freeschaeffercox1640]

Great video man, exactly what I was looking for. I got the same issue on an 03 yukon but the timing cover doesn't seem to be as isolated as this one. It's just a big flat wall so I don't know if heating it is even an option if I gotta heat it right at the threads, or in the housing. The bolts are still intact though so that's a plus

[@6258RB]

I ran in to this many times they seize up from corrosion, what i do is made a hollow bit from brake line that just fit over the bolt, you install a steel rod in one end of the line so you can grip it tight with a drill and the other end make it jagged to cut the corrosion, and it worked great . and the timing cover was never damaged, the bolts would come out as you drilled, it was so easy to do. just snap all the heads off which usually happened trying to remove them then drill them no problem did it many times and never damaged the cover. so simple.No heat required. hope this makes your day The hollow drill bit is easy to make. I was self employed for 30+ years now retired.

Great idea. I will have to try that. I hope you're enjoying you're retirement!

[@6258RB]

@@WrenchingWithKenny Yes I am I still peddle around, Yea it works really well some time I amazed myself with the ideas i came up with. I had my own way of doing things.

I would love to see a video on how you describe removing a rusted bolt.

[@thomask4836]

Best Wishes on a speedy recovery! Yep! A new timing chain would be a good move!

[@jerrybigrig9475]

Hope your better soon ...

Horse shoe of luck ! That chain needs to go but that set up wasn't stock either! A lot of crude but ez to service! Timing chains and water pumps on new modern engine,s OMG! And many hrs$$ labor! 96 ,that's the end of bronco 2 style? Price tag on a new bronco! Ouch! Looking forward to see final results/video! My guess that was the second timing chain on engine and it's has over 100k miles on it! THOSE 302 run forever!
