Right now I am starting on replacing my Water Pump, water pump belt/ power steering belt and alternater belt. But the bolt that adjusts the slide or movement of the water pump is rounded off. It is a 14mm and it just keeps on rounding it off. What should I do? Its time to panic.
 
I got the slider nut adjustment loose now. But it wont budge or slide down so I can put the new belt on. Is there any other bolts that are holding it in place?
 
I take you're meaning the power steering pump bolts.You will need to loosen the pivot bolts on the front and rear of the pump to get it to move.I've never had any luck getting the belt on or off that way though.I always had to remove the water pump pulley bolts,slip the belt in the pulley and bolt it back up.good luck.
