like an idiot, I overtightened the bolt that secures the tensioner assembly (timing belt) while changing the water pump. Obviously I'm going to need a screw extraction kit, some drill bits, and my B & D. I can't help but wonder if I'm going to break the damned extractor in the attempt. I soaked the thing several times w/PB. I guess I can resort to drilling it all out and tapping a new hole. So...anyone familiar w/this type of job? Your comments and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
