When i bought my b16 head im about to put on my car the vtec solenoid came seperate. Does anyone know the exact measurement of the bolt i need. There is 3 of them.

 

All of the questions that are asked 1000000 times a day get 50 replies but ones that are rarely asked get 0

 

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..
It's not rocket science.

 

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.

 

Hey guys, look..
Im not trying to cause a problem. Im just saying that i know there are people on here that know the exact size of the 3 bolts and im just asking for them to reply.

 

Is it the mounting bolts or the pressure test port?

I'm looking it up for you.

 

It lists 6x30.but i went to home depot and 1 they only stock 6x32 and 2. it was really small and in no way did it look like it would fit.

 

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

 

Hey, thats Captain 4 "minutes-to- late"

I sit corrected

EDIT: Fixed it for ya.

 

Alright thanks guys. It kind of pissed me off honda sent me off on my way with nothing but oh well. I'll stick it to them

 

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.

 

my ivtec screw has broken, i found it at this site, but its at holand, you may try to contact them contact form, they will need engine to identify your part.
