Thread: Broken Bolt EGR Removal

I had simalar issue with mine when doing egt probe fitting. Managed to drill out and put a bolt through. Problem I am having even with hi temp gasket goo I cannot get a good seal and afraid to tighten the one bolt too much.
Only issue I am now at Uluru so have to live with it for now.

Use new studs or one will break retorquing the manifold.

And... Torque up, run up to temp and follow re torque instructions or it will fail in short order.

The nuts on the manifold to engine didn't seem that tight taking them off, the 3 nuts on the the exhaust pipe side however needed a tap with the hammer to loosen. I'm pretty confident they won't break ..
