    How to have several hours of fun with starter bolts

    True, the reason the bolts fail is fatigue. Not from excessive force. Grade 8 have higher yield stress yet lower cyclic fatigue strength than grade 5. This is why removal success rates are quite high as the threads are not stretched. And usually coated with oil.

    Been there, done that. The knurling on the shank gives it away. Great job getting it out!
