i was putting on my vtec solenoid on my gsr and the bottom bolt broke. its flush with the head so i used a bolt extractor and then that pos broke so i used a dremel to level it again and tried another screw extractor but it wouldn't drill into the broken on. so i took the vtec solenoid and put hondabond over the gasket and put it on using the 2 screws left. it looks flush all around and isn't loose. do you think this will hold? has any one ever done this?

 

someone please answer id like to know so i can sleep better at night

 

Lots of pressure runs through there...may be risky. I know I had a stripped bolt on my old solenoid, and the bitch dripped oil at idle...I can't imagine what it would have been like at VTEC. Try it if you dare, but beware.

well im hoping that the 2 bolts i have in there + the hondabond will hold it....i guess ill find out when i start it....if it leaks ill have to figure something out.
