I was swapping out injectors, and I over tightened the Nut that holds the Fuel rail down, this is on a B16a2... Is there any way I can replace this asap, will the stud just come right out? I have 2 bolts really tight, but the one closest to the Distributor is broken, I just snapped it like 20minutes ago, I searched all over Google and H-T, and couldnt find shit, I guess its not a common mistake..

Before yall flame, I know its suppose to be tightened only 9Ft/Lbs, and barely tight, But last time I did that the nut vibrated loose and caused me to lean out on my AFR..

Please if anyone can fix this asap im down to buy the stud and throw you some cash. I need it done before Thursday. Since Im retuning at 9am.

Unfortunately it is in an area where you can't use open flame. If you are able to rid it of all fuel substance, use heat around the stud and use pliars if you dont have the proper stud remover tool.
