Rant
 
So its freezing outside. dipping into the single digits. Consistant sub 20 temps. Anyways, I got the CRX out in the street trying to work on it. Guy who had it before me broke a bolt in the Cam cap. He didn't have time to mess with it and I suppose thats why I got it for the price i did. Anyways, I'm thinking. Broken bolt, no problem. First I try the easy way... screw extractor. Obviously that broke. Then I used a dremel to cut a slot in the bolt. Used my full 150lbs of pure inadequateness and a vice grip on the screwdriver handle to try and unscrew it out. Well, that just managed to warp the slot so i couldnt get torque on it anymore. Next I went to the parts store and bought a helicoil kit. Figured, alright this should be easy. I go and get the drill bit which it seems is a pretty rare size locally (21/64) So i find one, and they dont have that size in titanium/cobalt so im stuck with a weaker all purpose bit. So about 30 minutes of drilling, the damn thing is at the same height it was before, but now looks like a shiny little dish. drill bit wont cut into it. Thought it would help to make a pilot hole with a smaller drill bit. No, that wont cut either. I'm so pissed off because all of this could have been prevented if someone bought a damn chiltons and torqued to 20 ft lbs. There is no way this is 20ft lbs, it feels like they used a high psi impact gun. My parents are bitching now because I bought another car that doesn't run and they want it gone, but thats difficult to do if I can't get it running. That bolt is the only thing hindering it, as I've seen the car personally go down the track. I hate dumbass honda owners. end rant.

O btw, dont give me that "who gives a ----" bullshit. Do something useful and instead post up instructions on how to tie a noose, faggots.

Cliffnotes: Super-bolt offers upmost resistance and aggrivates the ---- out of the lil fysh kid.

How to tie a noose is a little beyond you. I'd suggest you eat a tablespoon of Red Devil Lye, but your heritage insists you cram yourself into an oven and huff chlorine fumes.

You know you want to.

---- a cam cap. Who needs that many cam caps anyways? Stick a tack weld on it if you're that worried about it. :1

Sharpen and split point the drill bit. Then, after you get it back, Put some real pressure on it to cut. Pilot holes do help, when the bits are sharp. If you're unsure about how to do this, go to a machine shop and they'll do it for you, usually for free. Left hand drills are also pretty cool.

You should work on a running engine, prefferably while wearing a lot of jewelry and loose fitting clothes. Cam cap bolts own you. Niglets and tools don't mix. O0
