the person i bought the jeep from snapped 3 bolts off that hold the valve cover down and i was wondering how to get the bolts out so i can change the valve cover gasket

 

easy out probably

 

are they snapped off even with the head or is there a little sticking up if so remove the cover and spin the it out if not drill and easy out.

 

If you can, get a hold of a reverse twist drill bit. Sometimes just drilling the hole will back them out. We used them in the machine shop I used to work at, not sure where to get them now, but I'd try Tacoma Screw. Theres one almost on the corner of 99 and Airport Road in Everett. If the drill bit doesn't do it ez-out it.

 

whats easy out

 

easy outs you drill a tiny hole in the busted bolt then you tap in a easy out and back the busted pc out

 

google easy outs

 

I haven't had to deal with a broken bolt in a long time, but I just remembered, if there is a little bit of the bolt sticking out, you can weld a nut on the top and carefully back the broken piece out. Try to get a nut that is for teh thread size or smaller and plug weld the top. Just whatever you do, presoak it with PB blaster first. Heating(not too much, more warming) the surrounding metal, but not the bolt, will also help.
