Subject:Broken Bolt on Fuel Rail-Help
From:Michael Sullivan

OK...Switched out new fuel hoses and FI seals in the engine compartment
yesterday. All went well until reinstalling left side fuel rail. I
over-torqued and sheared off the bolt. Went out and bought a new drill at
Sears and a few bits and a flexible/bendable extension at Northern Tool and
Harbour Freight.  Can't seem to drill into the sheared bolt too well in
order to get the Screw-out in. Will be heading to Lowes when they open and
try to get a better bit.  Any other suggestions?
