Well he just kind of showed up. He was playing with a soccer ball in
the street and it rolled over to my lawn, and he said "nice car" as he
picked it up. A short time later, he ditched his friends and just
shadowed me for the rest of the day. It was neat at first, but then he

Extractors don't often work since they break too e
Well, bad news. I went and broke my extractor bit in the pilot hole.
Looks like I've going to have to submit and take the case into a
machine shop and get a pro to drill it out.

Well I've gone about it a different way. We don't have Kroil up here,
so I picked up some Gunk Liquid Wrench penetrating oil. Didn't help at
all, and the vise grips kept slipping off. I noticed that there's a
larger "ring" or housing that the water pump bolts to. I ended up
removing that and cleani

My 123 isn't home to look at, but could you get the drill in there if
you pulled the radiator? It's not much work now that you've drained
the antifreeze. THere are also right angle adapters for drills, though
I've never used one.

Problem is, I can't get a drill in front of this bolt to drill a pilot
hole for the extractor. I may have to go with the heat and penetrating
oil method first.

So with the help of the new neighbourhood 10-year-old, I was able to
