Like a brute, I overtorqued my valve cover nut and the bugger broke. Now I need a new bolt and nut combo but absolutely cannot find the bloody part number for it.

This is not my engine, but this is the valve cover nut and bolt I broke:



I ordered number 14 from this picture, but it turned out to be for the rear portion of the valve cover, not the front.



Does anyone know what the part number is? BTW, the engine is a D15B7. Thanks!

 

is it the same as #17 in the diagram on the right???

 

#17 is the nut but I also need the bolt. some of the thread came off when I overtorqued (gotta lay off the Benoit crazy juice).

 

go to junk yard an pull one off... its going to be at least $4-5dollars for the bolt and like 1.50 for the rubber seal at honda

 

bump for #

 

It sounds like you're talking about 15.

Will the bolt from the D15Z1 work on the D15B7? The valve cover on the left in that picture is from the VX. As I recall, on my car the bolt comes up from the head, rather than being driven down into it.

Anybody know if this bolt will work?

Look up the selection for YOUR car (the DX). Even if the photo is a little wrong, the part numbers are right.

Just like how the front lips and bumpers on the '96-'00 cars don't have the right images in the EPC. If you look up a 2000 Civic you will be shown an image for a '96-'98 front bumper. It's the right part numbers though.
