Hi,
Just had a rocker cover bolt shear off, about 2mm down from the bolt head. It snapped as if it was made of butter and I was hardly applying any pressure!
What can I do? Obviously the engine can't be run, and the "SPECIAL SCREW" (as listed in the parts manual) buried in the rocker arm support is so small that using a screw extractor would need a lot of finesse (assuming I could even get the right size).
And surely I don't want to risk re-tapping the rocker support?
Anyone had this problem before? Anyone recommend a DIY solution? TA!
