Hey guys, after painting the head cover of my engine, i was putting the bolts back on when i guess i screwed the bolt on too hard and it broke, now theres a piece of the bolt in the nut thing or whatever you want to call it, I put some pics, is it safe to drive like this? and how would i get a new bolt, i checked hondapartsnow, no dice. The Engine is a D16Z6 if it helps.

 

Drill it out and get a new bolt

 

You can use a bolt/broken stud extractor set from sears (or where ever you may go for your tools) to remove that broken piece. It's very tricky though but it can be done. For the bolt replacement, you may have to go to your local dealer if you can't order online (have you tried Majestic?).

 

90014-P07-000 BOLT B, HEAD COVER

i would use an e-z out, but you're gonna have to be extremely careful when drilling the hole for it.

 

I'm looking for the bolt online but i don't know what its called and none of them have a diagram of the head cover.

 

Did you not see the part number someone gave you right above your post?

 

Have you used an ez out before? That is a narrow bolt, you will need to drill dead center then use the ez out try by hand first and you basically screw it the opposite way it should grab it to help ease it out.

 

A left handed drill bit might work to

I just broke one while slipping on the rubber grommet.

This was from 3 years ago, I doubt they are still looking for the bolt.

 

Oppss, read that as he said they weren't available and needed somewhere to buy them. Silly me!
