Broken oil pan bolt removal

[metsfan3197843]

in the process of changing out my rusted out oil pan one of the bolt heads sheared off like butter. Tried vise grips. Any suggestions???

thanks

If there's enough sticking out, once the sump is off, weld a bit of steel to the stud and unscrew it...

Smack it with a hammer, then use the vicegrips

The hammer was the ticket, thanks. A little embaresed I didn’t try that in the first place

when you work on old broken things as a hobby long enough..... you acquire a bit of knowledge on freeing up things.
