HELP!!!!! Broke alt. bracket bolt when changing water pump.
As the post says. I was changing the timing belt and water pump and when I went to loosen the alternator bracket bolt it felt cross threaded. I sprayed it with wd-40 and kept wrenching back and forth and it snapped. Any suggestions.

oh lord 
So you're saying you snapped the head off the bolt, and the bottom half is in the block?
...if that's what you're saying you're going to have to go to a metal working shop and they'll have some crazy way to spin that bolt out. If someone knows of a tool or method I hope they can help.
