I accidently broke of one of my throttle body bolts. I guess the haynes manual was wrong saying that they take 69ft-lbs of torque( They broke before 25). Theres no room for a vise grip to try to unscrew it from the back where its sticking out. Anyone else have any suggestions on how to remove it before I have to break out the drill? Also what is the propper bolt size? I know they are 50mm, but is it an m8? And what is the propper torque fro the bolts?

 

Sure it isn't 69 in/lbs? I've seen that used in a few places, at first glance I thought it said ft/lbs.

But as for taking out the broken bolts...no idea, basically just try to get in a position where you can take them out.

 

They sell kits at Sears that are designed to remove broken bolts. I had the unfortunate experience of buying such a kit when I broke a bolt off in my sister's car. In my situation the kit did not work but it is worth a try. It was roughly $20 (they have a combo broken bolt/stripped screw remover but it is $40). Sears took it back with no questions when I returned it. I ended up drilling the hole out and using a nut/bolt combo since I could access the back of it. Good luck!
