Removing Broken off Bleeder Valve on 88 Rear Caliper (Page 3/3) reinhart SEP 27, 03:40 AM quote Originally posted by pmbrunelle: Good job OP, that's how it's done None of that easy-out stuff that gets people further into doo-doo. A little bit unrelated, but I generally only purchase new taper taps. Thanks. I've had EZ Outs work on other broken bolts such as in an engine block. Good idea on the taper taps. fieroguru SEP 27, 09:32 AM Glad you were able to get it extracted. When a steel bolt is stuck in aluminum, don't be afraid of cranking the welder up. The heat gives you good attachment to the end of the bolt as well as heat transfer to the bolt inside the hole which helps break the bond that has the bolt stuck.
