I was trying to take off my intake runners and i stripped one of the heads of a torx bolt. was trying to loosen it and ya, the stupid torx bolt head stripped. i can tighten it but not loosen, and i HAVE to get that bolt out to get the runner out to get the fuel rail out.. what is the best way to get it out? its on the passenger side on the bolt closest to the fire wall. should i just drill it and use a bolt extractor? im affraid thats its probably in there pretty tight so that might not work. im tired of my car and if i don't get this out im just gonna put it in storage..

 

Punk, you should have asked me in the first place.

Just drill the head off and after you get the runner off you can use some vice-a-grips on the bolt.

If you need help I can come over there, I had to do this one of my bolts on the B4C.

I hate torx bolts.

Call me if you want me to come over, if you need the phone # post this on the club board.
