Stator bolts are sheared off.

My friends stator bolts sheared off in his 01 Ultra. Now what? I suppose I have to try to drill them out. What about drilling and tapping four new holes using the stator as a template?

This is what screw extractors are made for....

Have you seen how small the bolts are? Not only that, but there are installed with red locktite.

They make very small extractors, and some heat will release the locktite..

Thanks Cool. I was freaking out a little. I am used to working on larger stuff.

I got them out! Not so intimidating when you use magnifying reading classes.
