Title: Broken High temp stat on Silvia
Post by: sduck27 on August 19, 2011, 06:51:42 AM

Hello guys
  I'm looking for some advice!  I broke the high temp stat on the front of the boiler of a silvia I pick up.  When trying place it back in I turned it one to many time and the screw part broke off. Is there any easy way to get it out?

Happens all the time. Drill the broken bolt & use an Easy Out extractor (http://www.amazon.com/Easy-Out-Screw-Extractor-Set/dp/B0002SDAIY). If you bugger that up, drill it out, put in some J-B Weld, redrill & tap it.
