Was in the process of taking off the lower unit to change the impeller and clean the water channels. 2 of the bolts broke off flush. What are my options on getting these out? What type of a shop should i contact to do this? Or is it possible to drill them out. The ones that came out were tough. It seems to be powdery, I think the threads are ok?? Maybe its just wishful thinking... Any help would be much appreciated!
Quick 2nd ? The reason I was messing with this in the first place was an overheat alarm, noticed steam coming from the exhast ports. Thought the impeller was bad. It didn't look too bad, quite abit of powder and crust in the water channels. What else could be causing the over heating besides the water pump? Thanks!! in advance...

Thanks,
