on my side motor mount the sid ewith the two 14mm bolts one of them is stripped on the inside thread. so when i put the socket on and try to remove it it doesnt go anywhere. how should i try to remove it? cut it off with a dremel? or is there a special technique to screw it off |

If you can fit a flathead screwdriver under there try prying up on it while you turn with the socket. Thats worked for me in the past. |

Get the biggest flathead you can fit under it. The more torque you can put on it, the better the shot you'll have at getting it out. |

Also try hitting the flathead screwdriver with a hammer in between the nut and the motor mount to pry them apart. |
