broken glow plug?

[giezy]

this isn't a plug tip broken off it is the bolt part on the top side off. Some one broke it pulling the motor and it worked fine before

What would bee the best solution to this problem? with out head removal?

 

[jwalterus]

assuming never sieze was applied liberally......

left handed drill bit, just bite it in and bind it intentionally

 

[giezy]

that was my idea. the motor was rebuilt and has 30k on it I haven't seen it yet but going this week

Hang on MORE details please before we can offer good advice.

How much if anything is left above the head surface?

Do the other ones come out easy? If so maybe then we can offer some non destructive suggestions.

 

[giezy]

will see it on Thursday going to look at the motor and see if a pair o vise grips might work

the guy has been giving it the wd40 spray every month so cross the fingers. he only want 800 for it and has video of it running

Tell him to use Kroil or PB Blaster, WD40 dries up to quick.

PB works unbelievably well, the only As Seen On TV item that is TOTALLY WORTH IT. Maybe try a bolt extractor? It's just a left-handed screw essentially that goes in a drill.

In my experience the 3M Penetrating Spray is the best and much better than PB Blaster even but it is spendy.
