  • On This Video We Showing: The owner of this truck started this job, they were trying to replace the thermostat housing, but in the process of doing it, they broke one of the bolts; they try to use a drill bit to remove the bolt but they couldn't remove it, they brought it to me and ask if I can remove that broken bolt; my answer was yes, but not with the drill. so I tell them the reason Why You Shouldn't Never, Never Use A Drill. To Extract A Broken Bolt.
    Sometimes When the bolts are too rusted they are hard to remove, and most of the time break,
    We use a different method than the use of drill bit and the twisted extractor tool, because, even if you drill a straight hole all the way throughout the bolt. but if the bolt got a corroded thread it will be so difficult to remove, and you might break the extractor tool too; which will make it more difficult to remove it.

    En este video que mostramos: El propietario de esta camióneta comenzó este trabajo, estaban tratando de reemplazar la carcasa del termostato, pero en el proceso de hacerlo, rompieron uno de los tornillos; intentaron usar una broca para quitar el tornillo pero no pudieron quitarlo, me lo trajeron y me preguntaron si puedo quitar ese tornillo roto; mi respuesta fue sí, pero no con el taladro. así que les digo la razón por la que nunca, nunca debe usar un taladro. Para extraer un perno roto.
    A veces, cuando los tornillos están demasiado oxidados, son difíciles de quitar y la mayoría de las veces se rompen,
    Usamos un método diferente al uso de la broca y la herramienta extractora retorcida, porque, incluso si perfora un orificio recto en todo el tornillo. pero si el tornillo tiene una rosca corroída, será muy difícil de quitar y también podría romper la herramienta extractora; lo que dificultará su extracción.

    The difference between a technician and a parts hanger, right here. I don’t even know this guy but I am an automotive veteran and I can tell a few things:
    1). He’s honest.
    2). He will repair it. Not just sling parts at it.
    3). He’s skilled. He cares. And will do a good job.
    Anyone else would have destroyed it and/or just sold the customer an intake manifold, gaskets, coolant flush, hoses and probably belts. Because the best was “soaked in coolant”. This customer got out for 1/2 hour of labor, a new thermostat and some coolant.
    Men like this are a dying breed!

    If you weld a large washer to the bolt then weld the nut to the washer it seems to double the success rate. Awesome job and patience is on another level.

  • @JohnSmith-wj2wd
    @JohnSmith-wj2wd Рік тому +5

    The perseverance in this video is very encouraging. A lot of videos make it seem that simply a nut welded onto the bolt will immediately get it out, making it seem hopeless when it breaks off once or twice. Looks like you just got to keep trying with a ton of patience until it finally does work. Thank you for sharing this.

      I agree with you- I watched others and tried it, broke it again. Nice to see that a guy shows that it takes several tries and not to just give up.

      ​@@jku72 Just this week I had to remove two broken exhaust header bolts that were flush with a cast iron head. The first bolt I spent around 4 hours with countless attempts to weld a nut on it. Honestly, it was because of this video that I felt confident that it had to get out at some point, which it finally did.
      Top tip to use as much heat as you possibly can. I first tried using a MIG welder, but ended up using a stick welder like in this video at full amperage. At some point I was making lava baths inside that nut. If you use a very large nut with a washer underneath that has a diameter of the snapped off bolt, you can apply a *lot* of continuous heat before the nut is filled.

    Mr. Gabriel, of all the bolt extraction videos I have watched in the past two days, this is far and away my favorite! Well done sir. You are an skilled old timer for sure ("never drill"). I am fighting numerous 1/4 and 5/16" stainless steel bolts broken off flush in the all aluminum power tilt and trim pump unit on my 17 year old Yamaha F150 outboard, that I use to fish the Texas coast. Today I tried this method of bolt extraction and failed on my first attempt - the welds broke. What I learned from you is to stay with it. A new pump unit is $2300. I will let you know how I do. I am using 1/16" SS SS rod (E308L) by Blue Demon, and 8-18 SS nuts, and a Lincoln Electric AC/DC 225/125 stick welder set on DC+ at 35 amps. I am new to this. Thank you for your great video.

      Yeah, I was wondering, was that a hard line, or rubber, I think it was a hard line, but the heat seems to have done bad things to it!
      I have such bad luck, and a curse, really, if I'm honest, the things I've seen lately... I've seen water flow uphill to screw things up for me, I've seen pieces of metal jump up against gravity and hit my hand and tool, when there was no reason that they should move. I was sitting next to a fan blowing full speed, my kid threw a golfball sized ball of aluminum foil at me as a joke, they were maybe 2 feet from me, so of course I throw it back, gently of course, it hit their leg on the couch, and the ball should have just bounced a little, it was not heavy at all, just crumpled up aluminum foil, right, and it was soft, as it wasn't compressed really hard, it was loosely crumpled up, so it should absorb most of the energy... like when they threw it at me, it just dropped to the floor, so when I threw it at them, it bounced off their leg, and flew, against the air flow of the fan right next to me blowing away from me towards them, but this ball bounced three times as hard as I threw it, flew up against gravity, against the airflow of the fan, and hit me. We were both stunned, it was as if a kitchen chair just lifted up in the air and flew across the room. Are you getting me? I've seen things that just do not make sense, are absolutely inconceivable, just obviously so, but if you have an understanding of physics, of kinetic energy, and just physics in general, the things I've seen lately would get you to question reality... things are just going against me, I know that sounds like paranoia, and I'm going loopy, but I swear this, things that just don't make sense are going against me, trying to harm me, mess up whatever I'm doing, didn't mean to write all this, it's just so crazy what is going on.
      But I wrote all that to say... that I've gotten extremely cautious in everything that I do, because I know things are just going to go bad, against all reason, logic, physics, etc.
      SO, when I saw that open coolant/thermostat port into the engine, I was like, "He's going to drop a nut in there!" I mean, the chances aren't that good, but I knew it! And sure enough, drops a nut right in there. I would have sealed that off before I started the welding.
      And I was freaking out about everything else around the area in the engine bay, like the alternator and its enamel coated windings of copper wire shining all bright and new right there... I knew if I was doing that, some little sparks of molten steel would have flown off the nut, landed on the alternator windings, burning through the enamel, shorting them out, ruining the alternator, lets see, yeah, I'd a burned a hole in the rubber hose, just some glob from welding would have jumped up and flown right into the hose, burning through it... the hard line, yeah, that would have been damaged by the arc and heat of the welder, the juice from the welder would have found some path to the PCM/EC? and fried the car's computer... and worse than that, it would have arced the 96 wires in three wire looms into the computer, welding the wires into the computer port, the each of the three loom's plastic would have melted... from just one broken bolt extraction attempt (that would fail in the end), I'd have done $2k worth of damage when everything was all said and done.
      I'm scared to even put on my shoes right now... I'd probably hit my head on the edge of the table while bending over, knock myself out, and I'd fall on my dog killing it...
      I don't even know how to proceed with my life right now, things have been going so bad. Everything I touch not only breaks, but causes damage to something else around the thing I touch, and then when I try to fix that other things, bam, it breaks worse, and damages something else around it. I've never experienced anything like this in my life. I honestly believe this is supernatural at this point. I've never seen or heard of anything like this happening in REALITY.
      I don't know, I started to write this comment to say that I would have covered everything around that specific work area, welding blankets, everything. I would have pulled all the fuses that could have brought electricity to the ECM/PCM/Computer. I'm in the mode now where if it can go wrong it will go wrong, and things I couldn't even image would go wrong will go wrong, so take every precaution against anything possibly going wrong, even if it is impossible that it could go wrong, still, take precautions to prevent it from going wrong...
      Hope I make it through the day today...

I can appreciate this video and the fact is, there are sometimes it is corroded so bad and if ever overheat and cool down, it sticks to a point a drill/extract will never have the grip it needs, only by this weld process do you have hope
