I've had to do this before on my 240. I didn't remove the head when I did it, I was able to find an air drill small enough to fit in the engine bay. I used a regular bolt extractor kit from home depot.

After an hour of painstakingly drilling, trying to fit the extractor properly, and lots of WD-40, I was able to get it out successfully . I had such a sigh of relief that it felt like I just performed brain surgery...haha

@asbestocide yes I have done the same as you - luckly this motor is getting rebuild so we were able to do it out of the car.

@asbestocide I'm in the same boat. I replaced the head gasket, and forgot that I had a broken stud when I put the head back in the car. Now I have to extract it while the head is in the bay as you did. It sucks, and I'm not looking forward to it
