Round torque bolts

[Paddy27]

I have just come to change my spark plugs on my vts, and the torque bolts that hold the coil pack down are completely round. How do I un do them??

Try a pair of mole grips mate or pliers if you can hold it tight enough and use plenty of WD40 to make it easier :y:

[MartinDines]

If that fails, hammer a screwdriver/socket into it.

And if that fails again, drill them out

[Paddy27]

Think it's going to be a drill out job. I can't get the mole grips on, and hammering a bigger torx socket on as not worked.

how much mate? the ones that hold coil pack down i presume

[Paddy27]

How much for the new ones mate?
I'm going to cut the heads off with a dremel and undo the spike that's left with mole grips. But I need the new ones go back in!
