If you can weld a nut on it, after the nut is welded and has cooled a bit, put the wrench on the nut and lightly twist on the nut back-and-forth just a little bit and gradually twist with a little more pressure as you are twisting back-and-forth. Sometimes I use a vise grip instead of a wrench because the vise grip is absolutely tight on the nut and I have a better feel for whether the stud is coming loose or not. Sometimes the stud turns right out and sometimes it turns a little and stops. You just have to take your time and not get too anxious about it. If you just put the wrench or vise grip on it and start turning it like you would a normal bolt you might twist off the stud again, only it'll be deeper in the casting and harder to get a weld on the next time.BTDT.

The left hand bit will grab the bolt better if it's merely enlarging the first hole. Good luck and take your time. Jim

We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
