Default honda accord 2002 coupe alternator bolt is tight

Hi everyone,

I have a honda accord 2002 coupe v6 and I couldn't remove the bottom bolt of the alternator. It is in a tight spot and the bolt wont loosen at all. Is there a way to loosen it?

I was thinking to use the PB blaster but I don't see how the bolt will loosen by just spraying onto its bolt head.

Thanks in advanced.

Cal

If you can start/run the engine long enough to get some heat into it, it may help in breaking the bolt free.
You don't want the engine stone cold, nor hot. Some heat will aid in allowing you to loosen the bolt.
