Nice job and a good result. Good luck with the Grandson working on the Stag, I've done this with my 14 year old Grandson, must get them up to speed to take the classic's on when I can't drive any more!!!! All the best Bob

Hi there. Having had a Stag way back & fully rebuilding a poorly engine I watched your video with interest. At present still gullible I am restoring a TVR Chimaera 450 on my channel. I digress. Luckily i have a fully equiped machine shop so would take off the thermostat housing & set it up on the milling machine. Then using the digital readout , find exact centre of the broken bolt. Then creap up in small sizes drill out the broken stud. Using reverse flute drills. Then when the metal gets weaker with size the stud will extract itself. Another way is with stud extractors, but not had 100% success with that method. I take it you do not have the equipment to do this job. But you should have a machine shop near you that will easily do the task for you. Hope it all works out. Given you a sub. Steve.

Good luck with that bolt. It's happened to all of us 👍

Thank you :-)

You should really flush the block and radiator separately. With your method any sediment from the block will now be in the radiator. You have just flushed any muck from the block into the radiator, it will either stay there or go back into the block when you run the engine.

Flushed the block too with the removable stud/taps open - thank you 🙂
