Dear Listers, There are just two more full days left in this year's List Fund Raiser. Over the last couple of weeks I have received some really nice comments from members on what the Lists have meant to them and I really appreciate the feedback! At this point, unfortunately, we are still well behind last year in total Contributions to support the continued operation of these services. I really want to keep providing these Lists and Forums to the home built community, but it takes resources. Since there's no advertising budget or deep pockets to keep the operation a float, it's *solely your generosity* during the yearly Fund Raiser that keeps things going. Please make a Contribution today so that I can keep the bills paid and the services and systems turned on. If you've been putting off showing your support for the Lists, now is the time to do it! To make a contribution with a Credit Card or though PayPal at that Matronics Contribution web site: http://www.matronics.com/contribution Or, drop a check in the mail: Matronics / Matt Dralle 581 Jeannie Way Livermore, CA 94550 USA Thank you in advance for your support! It is very much appreciated...

I got them all out but one. Unfortunately, one broke off about 3/8" to 1/2" from the engine block. The stud is on the oil filter adapter, it I don't think that's important. I don't have any experience here. I'm looking for assistance to understand what options may be available to me. I'm hoping I can find a solution other than drilling it out.

I could barely get the alternator off over the studs. I originally installed the alternator when the engine was not mounted. Since it requires adding a 3/4" spacer, I'm trying to figure out the logistics how how to get things back together with the longer studs to accommodate the added spacer.

Some heat likely will help, but don't over do it. If there isn't enough left for that, there are extractors with left hand threads that will grab and start turning stud when you tighten them on. If nothing is protruding you are pretty much left with drilling enough to get an extractor into the resulting hole. As to your re-assembly, Rapco makes a crowfoot wrench specifically for the vacuum pump pad. It is the solution for the most difficult nut.
