I just replaced the oil seal for thewater pump and while tightening one of the bolts for the power valve cover I noticed it was a bit stiffer than the others. I kept tightening, I didnt think it was too hard but apparently it was because the bolt snapped in half :mad: . I retreived the bolt and tried another one. This one was also tight....*yes I stopped before this one broke*.
The only thing I can think of is that the threads in the engine block are stripped?... What options do I have? :think I thought I could just get a smaller bolt, tighten it as much as I can and just try to use gasket sealer but I thought it would be best if I asked you guys first...
Thanks
