Walk yourself to the parts counter at your local Honda dealer and ask for the bolts for the solenoid off of a 99si. Problem solved. Or use one of the dozens of online sites to look up the part number, and maybe the specs of the bolts. It's not rocket science.

Already done that,they told me they dont stock them and would have to order them and basically they dont want to do that so they told me to find them at a hardware store (which is easier anyways). I would like to pick them up at a local hardware store..

I bet a tech could look up the bolt specs for you.


And I bet a hardware shop employee could find you a bolt in those specs.

Problem solved.

Is it the mounting bolts or the pressure test port?

I'm looking it up for you.

Home despot has the shittiest selection in bolts I've ever seen.

Try a Fastenall or an auto parts store.

The solenoid is the same for all b-series, so you could always head to a junkyard. I bet they'd charge you pennies if anything for 3 bolts.

MMMM I believe that the three bolts on the V-TEC solenoid are 10mm heads and 6x30 threads. Which equal 6m threads.

OP already posted the size. Thanks Captain 4 "minutes-too-late."

Honestly, I'd head to a junkyard if their is one conveniently located near you.

I belive they may be pretty specific bolts, you might want to check out honda for the screws, better off overpaying for bolts at honda that you know will fit than stripping something out

If they dont stock them, they should take 1 or two days to come in
just relax and wait 2 days

If you are talking about the 3 bolts on the top, then here's the specs:

they are 6mmx18mm metric flange bolt. You can get them at any metric hardware store for about a buck a peice or you can try calling Honda.
