drill a smal hole and use a stud extracter (sp) :thumb:

Like he said small stud extractor. The thread is a very fine taper therefore re-tapping (to the same size) is not an option.

Or I would just change the inlet manifold as I hate extracting studs and tapping etc!!!

A 1200 one must be cheap enough!

there £25 for an inlet but im just after buying this one so dont want to buy another. how much would a stud extractor be as i may invest in one as i dont have one.

About £8 a set in Halfrauds IIRC.
