Re: intake help

I would drain as much antifreeze as possible, I put 3/8 nuts over the broken bolt and weld them to the broken bolt through the center. then slowly work the bolt back and forth until it comes out. It normally takes 1 to 10 nuts before it is done. Be very careful antifreeze is flammable. You could also try to drill the center and use an easy out on it
