It ran the last time I checked it (a few years ago now) and my goal is to get it up and running too (why, tho, I'm not sure) on a boat of it's own. If you grind the head off the bolt you will be able to get a better grab on it once the cylinder head is off. Then you can work the blaster or whayever around the base of the threads. I doubt a screw extractor will be much help. Heat is usually the trick that works. Aluminum expands faster than steel. I'm curious why you doubt a screw extractor will help. This is exactly what they're designed for. I've used them and they work. |
