[QUOTE="YZThumper, post: 511445, member: 24412"] I had this happen to my 94 YZ 250. I wish I could offer some helpfull advise, but I was never able to remove the bolt from the insert, or the insert from the gas tank. I was able to get the shroud off, and I tried the epoxy trick, but the insert still spun. I had the bolt cranked down in a table mounted vice with me and a buddy pulling on the gas tank . . . . In the immortal words of George Bush "Not Gonna Do it" !!! If they made the rest of the bike as durable as that insert is inside the plastic gas tank, we'd never break down or have to buy parts again. I ended up buying a new gas tank from Clarke and the first thing I did to the new bolts and inserts was to put anti-seize on them. [/QUOTE]
