"Belt tensioner bolt" The 8mm Hex head pivot That's my next issue id probably run into. All I have is a 16" breaker bar with a 3/8 , 8mm hex head. Id probably end up needing a really strong impact?

"Belt tensioner bolt" The 8mm Hex head pivot bolt?

Is this sarcasm or literally? Lol. Welding required ,? for a little stinking bolt that got the head rounded out a bit? A little extra mechaniism there.

I don't have enough clearance to use a rachet or socket on this pulley or I would of just used a socket to remove or say loosen the nub without stripping the head. Im going to give it a shot with some vice grips tomorrow.

Ok I'll give that a shot tomorrow thank you.

a pair of long nose locking pliers? or any standard locking vice grips will work?

a pair of long nose locking pliers? or any standard locking vice grips?

I'll give this a shot tomorrow without actually trying to snap it. See if I can get it any what loose or anything after re.obe the two other ones. Thanks for your advice.

Dang it. Don't have a sawzall. Trying with a pair of vice my best bet?

That's sure one way to do It lol. What would you say is my cheapest option to tackling this?

Is this used with a ratchet? there's no clearance to use a rachet with a socket on the pulley that I'm having the issue with. that's why all i had was a cheap/decent wrench from Amazon.

and the tensioner is still required to be removed to remove the pulley even i believe??

I believe I believe there's a bolt behind the pulley.

If I don't have a pair of vice grips on hand would a pair of needle nose pliers work? , even if it meant completely ruining the bolt and just replacing it after? or would a better recommendation or cheaper recommendation alternative just to get a pair of vice grips?

I don't know if the pic is well enough but 2 of the bolts are fully loose the one closest to me is pretty well rounded off.

Yessir trying to change the water pump.

Rounded off one of the water pump pulleys on my 2008 Honda Civic all the other ones are fully loose but one is really rounded off how to fix??

I was pulling on the black plastic housing that covers the connector itself. maybe a little too rough the clip wasn't coming up so easy. or could it been brittle from being old and not tampered with for a while or possibly at all in years? It's okay though (really not) lol just another thing to fix.

Okay nice thanks alot! One more question. How exactly am I to know which wires are to connect to the replacement when the stock end of the wires are just a little different color labeled from new connection colors.
