I ran in to this many times they seize up from corrosion, what i do is made a hollow bit from brake line that just fit over the bolt, you install a steel rod in one end of the line so you can grip it tight with a drill and the other end make it jagged to cut the corrosion, and it worked great . and the timing cover was never damaged, the bolts would come out as you drilled, it was so easy to do. just snap all the heads off which usually happened trying to remove them then drill them no problem did it many times and never damaged the cover. so simple. No heat required.
My water pump pulley is stuck in my 07 Camry due to corrosion from a leak. What would you say about applying heat to the pulley? Already broke the tensioner so I’m not worried about messing that up so much.
I'm gunna try your technique
Looks like good plan
I dont want broken bolt headaches
Thumbs up and thanks
It worked no broken bolts and they were way worse than yours .. man you saved me a big pain in the ass , Thanks
