I tried to fire up the car but the engine turned over and never started, I hope this is the reason. |
Hi. Ground is probably one of the most important aspects of any electrical system - particularly when it relates to car electronics.
Gotta ground it
When there's a broken bolt or stud to be extracted , I've found that utilizing a set of " reverse " drill bits
( yes reverse ) along with a medium to big torque drill will almost always walk out the severed stud.
It's a little miracle worker that reverse drill bit set. Start off with the smallest one that's seemingly strong enough , center it on broken bolt and just let the drill and bit do the work. Don't force don't press too hard and voila ! Removal successful. Good luck and keep the shiney side up !
