The pains in life...Lol

So yea, yesterday over the mail came by Thermostat which I bought from mazdaperformance.com well I was out there, taking apart the thing, and I take out one screw...it was a bitch...so then Im trying to untighten the other screw...and it goes but then it stops....Im like shiit and my dad's like...lemme do it, ur weak...and he does it and breaks the bolt.....so ya I feel like on his ***.....but that happened last night, today Im gonna try with my uncle to get it out, if not we will be cutting the bolt with a cutting plate then drilling it out of the hole, then doing new screw lines to the hole, all without ******* up the housing for the T-Stat. What a pain that will be.....Lol...I'll post back later to tell you wether I need a new housing or not. I dont think so, I trust my uncle....I've seen him do alot of crazier **** to cars...

There you go again, letting other people touch your car, lol...

Put some penetrating oil down in the hole of the stuck bolt, it's probably a liitle corroded, and seized that sucker in there, maybe the oil will help...
