Yesterday I went to tighten my power steering belt that was squealing and low and behold, the hold down bolt hole was stripped, which was why the belt was loose. So, a simple job now requires removal of the alternator, PS bracket, a trip to the machine shop, and probably a $30 bill.
Ah, the old car hobby just keeps on giving.
