Posted 23:24, 31 Jul 2009 #2 internetscooter says: yep - that is another way. An alternative to vise-grips it to tighten 2 nuts against themselves and and use the nuts to do the job of turning the studs. Note though the warning (small image bottom-right), when replacing the studs you have to be careful one doesn't go all the way through and stop the oil pump cog. I prefer the shock removal method because touching something always runs the risk of breaking it. Studs and threads are annoying to fix.
