Intake manifold stud broken corolla 2007 - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Good day all,

I know I've been an idiot, but long story short.
I was replacing intake manifold gasket and broke one of the studs.
Is it possible to replace intake manifold stud somehow?
Everybodys help is very appreciated.
Thank you.

Can you drill into it or use vice grips to get it out?

It looks like it is still plenty of the stud left (thickness of manifold). I should be able to put double nut on it.

So, is the stud just threaded into the block?

Thank you for helping me.

I got all answers from the other place.

Looking at the parts diagram for the car, it appears to be threaded in there and can be removed. Looking at the diagram, there are different size studs so be careful what part number you give to the dealer when getting a new stud. Putting a double nut on it is best, similar to putting studs on a water pump.
