Hey guys,

Timing belt tensioner tool broke inside the motor mount bracket where it threads in and I had to take the timing belt and all that good stuff off in order to fix this mess.
I drilled out the broken piece.
Can someone give me an advice on how to retap these threads?
Is there a longer tap in order to reach into that hole?
Or can a regular tap get in there somehow?
Also where is the best place to find M8x1.25 tap?
It will save me a lot of time instead of taking that bracket off.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

I ended up just leaving it as it is. In the future I will have to go through the timing belt deal to change cams.
