Default d15b8 valve cover stud ??

Alrighty. so, me being the cheap *** without a torque wrench, I broke one of these little sad excuses for a valve cover stud.

Question is, are these things replaceable? and if so, what size do i need to buy? (thread pitch, and length, ect ect).

Im only asking because i dont want to try to get the broken one out, and it not be able to be removed, in turn, messing it up more than it already is.

Thanks for the help. Im about to go snap a pic or 2 of it, so you guys know exaclty what im talking about.

-AR.

Go to Honda tomorrow and buy one from them. They are about $6 if i remember correctly. Take off your valve cover and use a deep socket 12mm to remove the entire thing

There's not really anymore to it, remove broken stud, replace with new one.

Dealership is your best bet. Or if you have a junkyard near by, pull it off of a similar motor.
