How to get broken pipe fitting out?

Question

I have a piece on my Denali that broke off in the hole and just the threaded part is left in the hole. The center is open like a pipe but the threads are left and I need them out so I can put the new piece in the hole

The part is part of the heater I was told. It connects to the top of the motor. It's a 99 Denali, c'mon I know one of you knows which line I am talking about

Answer 1

Yes very common pot metal heater hose connector you can pound a large enough screw driver blade with square shaft into it and turn the screwdriver with a cresent wrench. Or use a hacksaw blade and cut into the remaining pot metal two places 180 degrees apart just to the threads then hammer and cold chisel the parts inward the pot metal will crack grab with needle nose pliers and work the two pieces out. Good luck happens every time the manifold or heater hoses are removed

Answer 2

Pipe Easy Out

Answer 3

Be careful If you use the hacksaw blade method, be careful not to damage the threads. If you use the chisel method, be careful not to damage the threads or break the heater. If you use an easy out, it is fairly safe but can still damage the threads so use just enough pressure to get a grip. If you use ANY method be VERY careful not to let the pieces drop into the heater. Sometimes things are more loose than you might imagine.

Sears has the right toll for this ,It is called an easy out... like a large drill bit but has reverse teeth and toy put it in a socket wrench and it will remove the piece

Answer 5

Depending on the pipe size, I have used a hack saw blade and cut the old pipe long ways in two places and then took a chisel or screw driver and knocked it out.

Answer 6

Ok, you are to stupid to have bothered to read any of the articles about the leak. 1. There WAS a valve fitted. It failed. 2. It IS standard practice to fit such a valve, even on land. 3. Nope, only about 1/2 million. 4. The last time I let the pressure run down in my water tank. (I use a well!!)

Answer 9

You can very carefully get a drill bit about the same size as the hole. Drill into the center of the pipe and when it grips put your drill into reverse and it just might unscrew it.

Answer 10

You get an ez-out for that size hole.
