so this morning i started my truck as normal..let it idle for a few min. tapped the gas pedal and i heard a boom and metal hit the concrete and saw all my gauges drop and idiot lights come on...shut it off and open the hood to find the automatic tensioner lying on the driveway and the spring laying in the yard..the bolt snapped off about 1cm into the block and the bearings on the tensioner seem bad...so what do you guys and gals suggest i do...i have an easy out and i can get to it enough to dril it but i've seen easy outs break???
