Broke Down

September6

I wanted to post my last event, but actually forgot, dang-it.  The belt tensioner on my car broke and the belt was so loose that the power steering wouldn’t work.  The part was $82 which pissed me off, but it only had 2 bolts holding it in.  I stripped on so bad that I had to get a screw extractor and drill out the head.  But wouldn’t you know it, the extrator broke off in side.  So I put the air hammer on it for like half an hour.  Still no good.

The next day I hit it with the grinder and a carbon fiber cut off wheel.  FINALLY after 2 days I removed the one bolt.  Everything was a breeze after that.  I should have had pictures of me and the bolt.  It was messy.
