Subject:      Exhaust bolt snapped off...yikes!!
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Ok I might as well advertise my stupidity to the list: While removing the 8
exhaust bolts from the heads, I was only successful in extracting 7. I
twisted the last one off...got too confident/aggressive I guess. So, I'm up
on blocks with no exhaust, and about 1/2" of bolt sticking out of the
exhaust port. It's the upper one on the front, drivers side. I'm hesitant to
do much else, lest I break off the last bit. I'll probably get it towed to
someone competent, but would like to hear from some "advisors"  :)

Thanks
Tom
