I stripped the head of the screw, from I guess, over tightening.?.
For now it's fine, but eventually, I am going to want to adjust the front tension.(only have run 4x)
What should I use to get the screw out, without ruining anything else.?.
-I already have the belt tensioner hardware to replace the screw, but I tried for awhile to get it out/losen up, but i made the top, almost rounded out.?.?.
-Do I need 1 of those sets, that drills into the top of the screw, to unlosen it, I rather not strip any other part. I have the full replacement, so I just want to get it out.?
-Any suggestions or LINKS to what i need, or can use.?
THX HELP (sorry for no part #'s, don't have truck in front of me.)

i don't know how much room you have to work with around that screw, but if you have a dremel you can slot the head of the screw and back it out with a flat head. if you don't have a dremel, i'm sure somebody at your local track will have one. i don't know if there is a harbor freight where you live, but i noticed they are having a sale on a cheap dremel start-up kit. it comes with the dremel and a bunch of accessories. i think it's only $10 if you have the coupon from their mailer.
