clutch trouble
Ok...Im a little ticked....
Thought since I had the day off I would try balancing my flywheel the way the TSB shows by adding washers to the flywheel bolts. Well, I did one corner no difference..then on the next bolt I tried the POS bolt I was using snapped off. I think it was a cheapo soft bolt cause I did'nt put much to it. So I put a drill bit in my angle die grinder drill it and try to easy out it with no luck...finally broke a easyout off in it so now %@$$#^$&! What to do next?? Will I be ok missing one of the eight bolts?? My last resort idea is tack welding it???........any suggestions?

Well I tried all day long to get the broken bolt out. No luck. Finally decided to weld the pressure plate and flywheel right below where the bolt is. I hope to have biger injectors soon and then a better clutch will be needed also so........
Just put about a inch long weld along the edge of the pressure plate and flywheel. When I go to change the clutch I'll just grind the weld off to get the two pieces apart. Hope this wont affect anything, dont know what or how....
