I have a problem.
I'm changing the water pump in my 5.0 and I rounded off one of the stud nuts on after getting all of the other bolts out.
I tried to heat it up, used a whole can of penetrating oil, and tried to vise grip but the bolt wont budge and in frustration I have rounded off the nut on the stud.
Any thoughts or suggestions. I'm kinda stuck here
I thought about cutting off part of the stud flush to the nut and use IRWIN bolt extractors. but im worried it might break or the bolt extractors wont work.
