drain coolant

take off head

get it red hot round the barrel where the stud is with blow tortch, then belt it with hammer....dont miss

then get some big mole grips on it tight as u can, the hotter u get it the easier it will come out mate

 

if not its barrel off cut flush,drill and extract then put a heli coil in if it dont come out in 1 piece

smile
