Engine side mount bolt broke what do I do?
I hit a bump yesterday and heard something snap. My car started vibrating horribly. I looked under the hood and the side engine mount bolt sheared off and is stuck in the hole. How do I get the bolt out?

Buy a reverse spin drill bit, hit the broken bolt dead center and start drilling. When you have a decent hole, start w/ a bolt extractor and if you are lucky and holding your mouth right, it will spin right out.

If you aren't lucky, you will break the extractor off in the bolt - then you really have some problems.
