Well, surprizingly, I don't have a bloody stump, but my wrist is swollen, and I still have indentations from the IM all over my hand. It took probably no more than an hour of actual work time, and am proud of what I did. Anyways, I used a 10" 3/8" drive extension along with 3/8" drive socket wrench, a universal joint, and of course the 12 mm socket. However, one thing concerns me -- I shoved my hand in that hell hole, and hand tightened the bolt AS much as I could get it by hand, and tried tightening some more with my huge socket wrench set-up, but it wouldn't budge more than a half turn. I don't want it to be too loose. I'm gonna drive around tomorrow/tonight, whenever I get out, and check for the code again later. God I can't wait -- I've been rolling with a bad KS since I bought the car, and now I will Know its full potential. Thanks for the help guys
