Hey guys I have a broken bolt in my rear timing cover...While doing a repair a friend messes with my air ratchet without me knowing and sets it on tighten. Well being me, thinking it's on loosen still I go and continue to take out the bolts. Well one snaps and the head snapped off. What can I do or do I do?

Can you give some more detailed info??? I know nothing about extracting bolts...Like what to buy and stuff....

find out what pitch the threads on the bolt are then you can buy a tap set at a hardware store and once you drill out the bolt, you can use the tap and it will cut out new threads so you can screw in a new bolt.

Try EZout.

It's a reverse threaded tapered drill bit...

If that fails, drill and tap/helicoil it.
