lost bolt
WEll guys ive been working on my car for the past week non stop almost all day long every day, and i was finally about done with it...putting the upper intake on when a bolt stud...the bolt without the head fell down the lower intake manifold. So i took that off for the third time, it kept leaking everytime i did it before that, and found that it had fallen into the head. Anybody have any idea of how i can get it out? I was so close...and now im just set back that much more. So disappointing.

go to sears , they have a tool for that, it's a thin flexible handle with a small magnet on the end , btw i once dropped a small allen headed bolt that holds on the fuel pressure regulator onto the engine while i was installing a big shot nitrous plate and i couldn't find it till i started the car up and it started making a terrible racket, needless to say it fell into the hole where the fuel injector goes, long story short i bent 2 valves and beat up the top of the piston pretty good. lot more work but didn't cost too much to fix. DONT START THE CAR TILL YOU GET THE BOLT OUT !!!!!

thanks, thats just what i needed to know. yea i know what ur talking about, those things are pretty small. With the size of the bolt that fell down there it would prolly do some damage
dont want that to happen. Thanks again
