Well, I found my accessory bracket to be broken in half. Towards the bottom by the AC compressor. I took it off, only to discover the lowest most center bolt sheered off in the hole, and it isn't coming out - I've tried. It just isn't going to happen. I drilled it, unfortunately too far. I'm though the block into the sump area. I figure I can patch that with some silicon/RTV product, there isn't too much pressure there, so I'm not overly worried about that.
So now what. Just slap another accessory bracket on, don't run the AC and hope it doesn't just crack the next one.
Any help would be appreciated.
