So here's the deal. I got my motor and getting ready to do the timing belt, idlers, water pump and etc. While removing the crank pulley bolt I had a huge brain fart and gave it a few 1/4 turns the wrong way. Once I figured out I was being a dumb a$$ and started to turn the wrench he right way it came out with no problems. At no point did it feel like I stripped anything out and the threads on the crank pulley bolt look fine. I'm just a little concerned about the crank shaft and if this could have caused any major damage.
Sorry for not giving more info in my first post but I was in a hurry this morning.
Thanks,
Matt

Can one over tighten the crank pulley bolt and if so what's the worst case scenario?
