Default Manual Tensioner Bolt Stripped. What can I do?

The tensioner bolt for the timing belt is stripped. I can't get it undone. Is there any way to get it undone? Has anyone had this problem? I'm about to push my car off a cliff.

yes what you need to do is, take a dremel flatten 2 sides and use a wrench to get it off. I didnt just use any wrench. gonna seem kinda funny but i had that one that they advertised on tv. The one that looks like it has a whole bunch of pins in it. That thing really works

i dont know if you stripped the bolt yourself or not, but i would recommend open ended wrenches to any1 after my experience this weekend they make a world of difference

Won't fit onto the tensioner. Tensioner bolt is too sunken in.
