Hi all,

Went in for an oil change today. Tech came over to me and showed me what was left of a manifold bolt. Apparently it broke from the head and it was wedged in between the heat shield. My question is what is the best way to fix this problem. I know how to take the manifold off to replace the gasket, but what if the bolt is snapped from the head. How do I get this out without damaging the head? Is there a special tool? Also, what size is the bolt and length as well as torque spec's. One last question. How long can I drive with only 7 bolts. Car runs fine and smooth. Will I damage anything. I just had the head gasket replaced 6 months ago.
