For me I have narrowed it down to Howes penetrant & a drill & gas torch for broken studs. Quick & easy with zero issues. Thanks for your input.
Thanks KiWinUS; Ron told me a little about you some years ago, all good. Anyway thanks for sharing your experience and I'll have to try the Howes. So do you drill the stud heat it,let it cool and and then use an easy out?
Thanks again, Craig.
