Its happened again; snapped off bolts. I've tackled this before, never
satisfied that the approach I used was the best (removal of the 'remains').
I've tried solvents (PB blaster, etc), heat (torch), and drilling
with/without Easyout. Heat and beeswax. What are YOUR successful methods?
BTW, these are two steel bolts into an aluminum transaxle at the motormount
of a FWD Coupe Deville.
