Broken the idle bolt on the side of bosch pump
#1
Hi guys, iv just being trying to turn my fueling down on my bosch pump, and so slackened the idle screw in order to turn that down before decreasing the fuel. So slackened the nut then the screw and then did the nut back up. with very little effort on the ratchet, the bolt sheared! :oops: just below the screw thread. Thinking i might be able to solder the remaining half of the screw on to the pin in the pump, in order to withdraw it and then put a new one in. is this going to be possible? or is the pump scrap. its only been in the car less than a week! any ideas would be great.

Cheers.

I will post some pics up if someone could tell me how to upload them!! all I seem to be able to do is put ones in from websites.
