I had 3 broke on mine and all 3 came out by tapping with a chisel and turning by hand. Should have bought a lottery ticket.
The key is torque them to the correct ft lb. Don’t just crank on the new ones, they have to be able to stretch when stuff gets hot.
Ha. I don't mention that trick because I don't trust a done enough to do it. Honestly, we've had a high success rate doing it that way, but the guy that welded them is no longer employed here.
