Just so mad that I need to share my idiotic move yesterday.
On a Volvo 5 cyl twin cam, you install a cam locking tool at the back of the cams to keep everything from rotating while you take off the 88 ft-lb cam wheel bolts at the VVT front end of the engine. All guides say to bolt it in really tight.
Well, I sheared off a bolt deep INSIDE the camshaft. Didn't think to question the quality of this tool and that maybe I should have bought hardened bolts.
Now I'm stuck. Pull the top of the head and hope to get an easy out in there....??
