How to Remove a Broken Water Pump Bolt Stuck in an Engine
In this video, I share some of the best methods to remove stuck bolts. I snapped off the water pump bolt on a Mercedes SLK350, and the stud got stuck inside of the engine block. I tried several methods of removing the broken bolt from the engine and eventually got it using a collared stud remover. You can use these methods in many other situations of stuck broken bolts like on cars, motorcycles, trucks, boats, and anything else that may encounter a broken bolt
