I am just finishing a replacing the timing belt in my Honda 2000 Odyssey. And, OMG I still have what looks to be a 6x35 bolt on the table. I thought I labeled everything! It was mixed in with the water pump bolts. There are 5 of them which are 6x22. I have scanned the Honda estore reviewing the parts assemblies with no luck.I have found threads where some have mistakenly tried to install the 6x35 in the water pump flange and snapped it off however there is no reference to where it is supposed to go.

Any help would be enormously appreciated!!

It's like the family pet, kids just won/t let go!

 

Do you still have the timing covers off?

If so, just look to see what's missing. There really aren't that many places it can go. What color is this bolt?

Off the top of my head:

5 gold ones for Water pump
Two silver ones on serp belt tensioner
Two silver on timing tensioner
One gold for crank sensor
One silver that holds wire harness onto engine mount bracket
One silver for dipstick tube
One black for wire harness to alternator bracket
Three black ones for cruise control
Silver for ground strap

 

On the Honda parts sites, I only see 6 x 35 bolts for the oil pump assembly.

 

I'm late in responding with my thank you! my apologies. Tech8 had it right; I accidentally removed the top bolt off the oil pump assembly, which is almost directly below the water pump shaft, when I was removing the water pump bolts. she is all back together running nicely..
