Wtf do I do here? First thought is to start drilling from small to large. Fker before me used locktite ffs. Give me some ideas.
>>3008362sheeeeitAh, you can try drilling a hole in it, reverse tap the hole and die cut a reverse thread onto something else.
Yeah i'd try drilling a hole and getting a torx bit to bite in it. There wont be any load on it now the head has snapped off. Heat will soften the locktite, so heat it up then try and twist it out.
>>3008362about to say you deserve your fate for using locktite, but i guess "it wasn't you" this timedrill smaller, bolt extractor, heat, then start extractinggood luck
>>3008362I deal with this all the time.>>3008382nails it.Pull the belt, heat the bitch til it smokes and you smell the locktite burning, hit it with a really good penetrating oil (Mouse Milk, Kimball-Midwest CB, maybe Kroil) then centerpunch and drill the cunt.
>>3008373The bolt started coming out then stopped. Wouldn't tighten back also. Tried a lot of back and forth and it snapped.
>>3008362Where is this from? Electric bike?To everyone saying heat it up: isn't there an oil seal behind that pulley? Made of rubber maybe
Fuck her right in her pussy!I removed the timing belt pulley and heated the crank around the bolt little by little with induction cause I couldn't get the flame inside the hole.
>>3008483Good job bud. Be sure to apply some red on the new bolt for the next owner.
>>3008483Good work, they must have put a lot of locktite to grab it once it initially loosened.In case it helps for another, some timing belt instructions say to heat the head of the crank bolt if its being stubborn.
>>3008485Haha, loled.
>>3008483I can just imagine the big brain going>well I don't have a torque wrench so I'll smother it in blue glue and crank on it for a good half heave
>>3008483Sumbitch. Nice job - when you said it started to come out then snapped, I figured it had been crossthreaded or damaged and you were fucked.
