Message	So i go to time my engine, get to the point where i had to put the top chain tensioner on. Go to torque the first bolt, start tighting but it feels weird like its just turning and not getting tight. So i take it off look at both of the threads and everything seems fine. So i do it agian, get a few turns (only 20 NM of torque, i was being a dumbass :( So then i feel the dreaded little snap, shit. I knew this was going to happen. alright, so i'm thinking about this. I have a few options. Drill it out, heli-coil Drill it out, re-thread Go buy a small extractor and use that to remove broken bolt What does everyone think i should do about this? I'm just wondering, never had a bolt break off in my head before. if the mods could just leave it up for a little while, that would be nice :) ______________________________________________ "If it doesn't make it go fast or stop fast, then forget it"-Jesse James "Someone just needs to blow up z1 and make the world a better place"-unknown
