Hi, Very Happy
How can I remove a striped exhaust cap bolt. The bolts are small (8mm). I was able move them half turn before I striped the bolts. They should be quite lose but not enough to move them using pilers
.would a nut-splitter work for it?

Either weld a nut onto the end or cut a slit across and use a manual impact driver and twat it out. Saying that though if they're already loose then just cut a slit and use a big flat blade screwdriver.

I warmed up the engine before I heated up the bolt with a blow torch. Then covered the bolt with a piece of cloth and used a 9mm socket piece. It worked. Nevertheless, thx for help.
