Re: need help removing broken bolts

On valve covers, I usually just remove the valve cover, get an impact screw driver with phillips bit and hammer it while spinning counter clockwise, it's much simpler than using an ez out and usually gets the job done, but periodically I'll have to drill and ez out.
