removing snapped studs

[chris]

Anyone know where I can get snapped studs removed? some have snapped when the old exhaust was removed. the mechanic cant remove them, hes tried heating.

How much is sticking out? Can he weld a nut to it ?

I dont know fossie, I havent been to see the bike. I'm in the north east.

Is there a tool/jig to aid drilling out on a Suzuki Motor akin to this sort of thing (for Harleys).

He’s a shit mechanic if he can’t remove a snapped stud, get your engine/bike back from him now would my advice.

Solid advice that is.

[chris]

I'm not sure if it's a cant do or hasn't got the time

I'm in Sunderland

Its come down to he will not do it. I'll have a word with Armstrongs. Hoping the head doesn't have to come off.

[chris]

Speaking to Armstrong, they have no problem with removing the studs. They even said I could take either the full engine or the head, head being easier. I can't work out why the other mechanic has problems.

Thanks for the suggestion Blix

Depending on how much stud is protruding, a stud extractor usually does it for me.(tool station or machine mart)
