What have you done today with your Austin Seven

Think this little car doesn't want me to drive it but loves having money spent on him /her. Thanks for the heads up everyone regarding spark erosion procedure.

I have replaced broken manifold studs 'in situ' on a couple of occasions. I even have a couple of specially cut down drill bits to get in straight with the drill. Fortunately, I have a small Black and Decker D500 drill that will just fit into the engine compartment, but I have also recently acquired a right angled drill attachment for the big drill, should I ever need to do similar jobs in the future. Carefully centre punch the stud in the middle, drill out with a 1/8th inch drill as a pilot. Drill to size with a 7/32 in drill and tap out the hole (1/4BSF).
