Default I need some serious help!!!! oil sending unit broke in block!!! HELP!!!

ok so i found my oil leak finally.....the tee for the turbo oil sending had cracked. Thats why i bought the golden eagle block adapter and i was putting it on. I started to unscrew the old tee and SNAP. Oh **** i really screwed up this time....anyways i know some have you have done this so how do i get it out. It is completely flush to the block so i cant grab it with anything. Is there some kind of screw thats reverse threaded so i can wind it in while turning it counterclockwise???? please help thanks

you need a bolt extractor. it basically has reverse threads and bites on the inside of the fitting to remove it. can find it at most tool supply and hardware stores.
hope this helps.

Yup, and extractor is the way to go. Just make sure you use the right size extractor for the pirce you're trying to remove, and go slowly.
