Not sure whos handy work this was in the past but now I cant get the tensioner off. Sure, I could compress the piston and put a pin in it, but the last timing job was over 100k miles ago so I would really like to replace it. I have tried using the dewalt bolt extractor, no luck. How can I get this bolt off? I dont care about the tensioner as I have a brand new one waiting to be installed. Any ideas?

It might help if you can remove the A/C bracket to get a better angle on the bolt or locking pliers. I've run into the same issue before on one of our T4rs
