So I have a 94 accord project car Im workin on as we speak. I realized one of the valve cover bolts were broken off. I took the valve cover off and bought new bolts but I cant seem to extract the broken off part of the bolt out of the bolt hole...
Every drill bit seems to break that I use to drill into the broken bolt... Any ideas??? thanks

The studs are replacable correct ? You could just buy a new stud and nut and be done with it.

Exactly, I broke one a couple years ago. They are held in place by a 10mm stud. All you need is a deep socket 10mm and like $3 to get a new one from the dealership or a spare junk head you laying around. For some reason I feel like you completely broke it off........

Stop using junk ACE hardware drill bits. I have also never broken the stud off in the head, use a 1/4 drive with your left hand next time.

Im gonna take a pic then Ill post it. But the bolt broke off flush with the engine after the valve cover is off.
