What a pain in the arse!!

Screw you!

i rest my case

Get the easy-out off, then soak it in WD40 a few times a day for a couple of days

Then after heating up the head around the stud (hobby torch is good for this) use two nuts locked together to unwind it.

Works for me almost every time.

as chav says or if it doesnt work drill into the middle of the stud and hammer a torqx bit in and un screw it

Got my head back at the weekend, minus the easy-outs! Cost the grand sum of £15!! Mates dad owns his own machining business and did it in his spare time. That's what you call lucky lol!! Gasket sets, timing belt kit and a few other bits ordered so should be busy for a little while...
