    Hi,

    This is my first post on this forum and I have searched with no avail. I was changing my water pump yesterday and while removing the idler pulley located below the supercharger tensioner, the bolt and washer fell. Since then, I haven't been able to locate it and I can't continue without it. I called the local dealers and they no longer carry the bolt. Is there another fix or does anyone know the size and or where I can get a replacement? I'd greatly appreciate it.

    Thanks in advance,
    Patrick M.

    Squish your arm down directly toward the harmonic balancer and pick the bolt up off the subframe. Yep.. it's honestly right there.

    If need be pull the passenger tire and plastic splash shield to gain a better view of the area.

    I usually drop shiney wrenches or sockets because they are easier to see.
