Putting spray bar on and tightend the nut on to the cylinder head and the thread snapped off the cylinder head. To much force used.Is there any strong glue compound that can be used as an easy repair? or is it a new block? cheers

you can get kits for getting snapped bolts out.. i wud think glue would be a no- no! is it the bolt that has snapped or have you comeplteley chewed the thread?

The spray bar has a thread which tightens onto the block. Done this to tight and the spray bar just snapped the thread from the block away with it. Always been heavy handed
