Coil Pack 8mm bolt snapped while removing
Just went out to change the plugs on my 2012 eco. Removing coil pack bolts and snapped the first two off. They made about 3 or 4 turns and never eased up. Didn't notice on the first one because the socket came off and the bolt fell out and couldn't find it. I quit after that and
called the dealer. He said they will have to drill them out and tap. Anyone else have an issue with this? Is there a trick to it. Don't want to spend big bucks
taking it to the dealer when the plugs need changing.

I broke one. Was late and I was ready to quit for the night.
Looked around the shop and found a hardwood wedge that fit under the fuel rail and on top of the COP so tight that it will not fall out. Will remain like that until there is reason to do something. Has been over 2 months and no issue.
