A shop worked on my car and the large crank bolt at the harmonic balancer fell out! The bolt is stripped. The shop said they ran a tap in the hole (but re-used the stripped bolt?) Anyway, the shop is talking about a VERY expensive “key-cert” (sp?) insert. I want to try a new bolt first. I’m wondering if I should use a thinner washer instead of the mega-thick factory washer to get a couple more threads inside the crank nose (since the shop said they tapped the hole already)
Thoughts?
