He he he he..... i have been the so many time lately....there is a 50%
chance with heat or welded bolt on the remaining stud....or the
drilling/taping/helicoil.

My conclusion: if they don't come out with plenty of heat...they won't
with a welded bolt also...drill and tap is the way to go....

Cheers, Ben
