AC Belt change with rusty crank bolts
The bolt heads on the harmonic balancer for my e70 30i (n52) are super rusty. I知 afraid I値l snap a bolt head off if I try and use one to instal the ac stretch belt. (It痴 the 4 bolt pattern, not a single central bolt)

I have some large kobalt clamps and I may try and clamp one around the balancer for more leverage but otherwise I知 at a loss.

Any thoughts on how I can turn the crank by hand or install the stretch belt without turning the crank?
