Default Something bad happened

so i was just in the garage putting the waterpump and timing belt back on.. got it on and went to go and put the Timing Belt Tensioner back on... laying under the car i realized that the bolts were sort of short... Immediately i looked where the bolts are supposed to go and there broke off inside of it... HOW DO I GET THEM OUT??? WHAT DO I DO???


weird part is that they broke taking them off....

at first i thought that maybe i tightened them instead of loosing them but nope...

get a bolt extractor it, a little over 30 bucks for a good kit. You need some space to use that kit though. GL
