Default Dont do This

What a dipshit move, i dont know why im posting this, but here we go. As some of you know a week ago i put a b18c into my 93 civic, apparently in the reassembly of the motor the tightening of the crank pulley bolt was overlooked and yesterday morning when i went to start my car i heard some funny clanking around, and my bat. light came on, im like wtf, what did i break now!! I look under the hood and the crank pulley is just chilln dangling from the alternator by the belt I must have lost the bolt the night before and the pulley eventually wiggled off, good thing the timing belt didnt "wiggle off". Today i went to honda to get the new bolt and its 19$ with the keyway thats rediculous, but ive learned my lession, i wont have the bolt til wed:wtc: Just thought id share!!

We did that on my buddies hatch, but it came off in the middle of the night out in BFE. Got pulled over for driving without headlights, so at least you weren't THAT stupid. Just thought I'd make you feel better.
