The worst thing about using one is, if it breaks off while twisting, you are screwed. You won't be able to drill it out if you break it off. I'd drill it out and re-tap the hole.

If you're questioning how sharp you drill bits are just try drilling into apiece of scrap piece of steel on your workbench and see what happens. It is quite possible that the bolt you are trying to drill is a grade 8. Inthat case you're going to need a really good bit as MO suggested. Also usethat centerpunch as others have suggested. When using an easy out make sure that the hole is undersized enough so that you have to drive the easy out into the hole with a light hammer.

This is the bolt that holds the alternator to the head. I suspect it's bottomed out. I've tried a left hand drill bit and a Craftsman Drill-Out and I am not removing any metal. I'd sure like to not have to pull the head to remove it. I'm no drill bit guru but the bits seem to be sharp. Any suggestions or help anyone can offer? Is it more than drill straight in to get the hole started or what? Akron Don Gallimore-- -- -- Please address private email -- email of interest to only one person -- directly to that person.
