Subject:      Head stud testing
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

Dennis/List,
I noticed that you have mentioned testing head studs a couple times on the
list recently. I have an engine with a snapped head stud that ambushed me.
This engine was maintained properly with regular coolant changes etc no
overheating ( at least in my hands ) ran very well. Anyway, I have an
interest in preventing a recurrence of this but I don' t know how to go
about testing head studs. What's the procedure that is recommended.
Thanks
Rick Koller
