I have a 1995 accord EX, 2.2L engine... and I discovered that the head of one of the radiator mounting bolts is sheared off. Another radiator bolt is sticking up about 1/2", and won't budge. One diagram suggests that this bolt is 6x1.0 but gives no length and also, I can't tell for certain if there are nuts I also need to buy. BTW... it looks like ALL the bolts in the front, under where the hood sits, are in bad shape... I'd like to replace them, but wow the Honda's parts site isn't easy for me to figure out which section I should be looking at (and I don't know what this front piece is even called). Sorry to bother you--I've looked through my service manual printouts (don't have complete manual, just what I got from Service Express) and Honda estore, etc. and just can't find what I need.

I also need a flange bolt for where a bracket holding a harness branch connects to the plenum (under IACV)... think it's 8x1.25mm x 25mm... not sure at this point where I saw it. I dropped the bolt while trying to put it back on and can't find it.

 

these things are a dime a dozen at the junkyard

 

I went to the Honda dealer today, and they didn't have the bolts I needed. It took 40 minutes and two parts employees to find the bolts in their system and getting the specs was like pulling teeth. So I now know the one that bolts the bracket to the plenum is 8mm x 1.25 x 45mm, and the ones that hold the bracket over the radiator to the frame are 6mm x 1.0 x 16. The parts guys didn't know the pitch, but at least I had that. They said they don't carry the bolts since it's an old car, and don't have cross reference numbers to newer parts because they tell me they probably don't use these sizes anymore.

Holmesnmanny, never really thought about checking the junkyard for something like bolts, since I figured the local dealer would have them! I'll have to keep that in mind for the future. Fortunately, I got what I needed at the auto parts store!

 

Yeah, they're all over at the JY. Or you can just upgrade them to the JDM Password washer bolt type for a cleaner look. Mine broke off too and I had to drill and tap the holes again.
