Head was low to the left this evening so I thought I would check the tyre pressures. Imagine my surprise to see 2 bolts missing and a further 2 what I thought was loose. Took out the 3/4 inch drive and 30mm socket and the first one sheared off so left the other. Running 1680E (1688) 1994/5 build and 20ft 1030 European head.
Questions are. What is the best method of getting the broken bolts out?
And in the parts book it says the bolts are Grade 8 why not go harder?
I know I was very lucky but I am not looking forward to tomorrow at the moment.
All you Axial flow owners out there go and have a look just in case. Good luck
I should change my name to Boltbreaker
Cheers BB
