dowel remover

A handy hint for the removal of dowels, using a 10 mm dyna bolt to remove stubborn dowels, place a 12mm ring spanner over the dyna bolt, insert into dowel, tighten, use small hammer on the ring spanner to tap the dowel out, works great, no damaged to dowels from pliers etc.







a length of 6mm rod with a cut in the end about 25 mm long is used to take a piece of emery paper to a honing tool to clean out stud holes in head and cylinder block
