Airbox bolt snapped!

Stuck CAPS

New member
I was cleaning my throttle body yesterday, and as I was fastening the airbox back into place, the bottom one (near the wire ties on the sensors and closest to TB) snapped. I don't think I overtorqued it, but the top half came off, and the other part is stuck in the block. What should I do about this? E.G. How should I go about removing the bottom half?

Post a pics of both, bolt’s head and what is seen in the head. Drilling and extracting is my suggestion w/o seeing the matter. Drilling and extracting to back the threads out is a usual process if the size and conditions are good.

But what's to stop the bolt from spinning? And I can take some pictures later.
