1 shoot pb breaker at bolts.
2 center punch bolts.
3 take break, 5 minutes half an hour whatever.
4 repeat as many times as you have patience for.
I did this for my snapped trans bolts, and I turned them out by hand in the end- didnt even use the easy out
do you run the drill bit and the easy out in a clockwise direction ? or does the drill go CW and the e-z out go CCW??

If you feel the EZ-out flex, but the bolt doesn't move, don't keep turning! If you do, the EZ-out can snap inside the bolt, creating a MUCH bigger problem.
I learned that the hard way. Rusted tight lower fender bolts in the 510. 35 years makes for some nasty rust! Now I have a hardened chunk in that old crystalized bolt. I had to make my own 2nd bolt hole. Not fun.

my previous experience with ez outs was of the manual type. they have a square head which i used the appropiate size open end wrench to apply ccw rotational force with one hand, while tapping the end of the ez out with a hammer with the other hand.
