So I've had this civic project for a while, my wife "cleaned" the shed and somehow threw away a box that had a buncha my bolts/hoses misc stuff

I got the motor dropped in the car last night and realised I'm missing the front motor mount bolt, does anybody know the size I need?

also exhaust bolts?

and ALL of my coolant hoses & vacuum lines, thinking of getting a cheap hose kit off ebay, are they worth whopping $40? Lol

thanks!

 

the junkyard would be a better option to get bolts and hoses
and aslo cheap
you could probebly get everything you need for about 20 bucks maybe even less

 

Yeah my buddy actually bought both civics with d engines from the junkyard about a year ago and sold them.. only have some 80s integras with k series and a few accords with f motors
small town with 1 junkyard makes used parts hard to come by

there's some parts cars in surrounding towns but they're all 2-4hrs from me so figured I would see if I could buy online for the same as gas $ would be lol

 

motor mount bolts are your 14mm and 17mm
and the exhaust bolts are your 12mm
and you can take them off those integras with k series engines
and those accords and the junkyard
you can measure the length you need before you leave home or you can just grab a hand full of them
you can also get your hoses off those cars as well

if you really want to you can make it happen

 

Okay sweet

I was told the thread "pitch"? And bolt length would be wrong

I found 2 14s that seem to work fine, just need the 17 that crosses through frame & mount now

thanks!!

 

no problem
the hoses your probebly going to have to bend a little or trim but you can also find them off those cars
remember there honda bolts and hoses
even the 2018 hondas are still useing the same stuff as the 1971 s were back in the day

now lets see some more pictures of that hatch your working on ^_^

 

Here's the engine bay as of lastnight, I will get some body pics when I get off work. It's pretty rough, but I got the car for $50 so I'm not complaining lol

 

So I just checked the door tag and turns out it's an 89 lol

but like I said, it's a genuine $50 rez rocket
not real pretty but lots of potential for being less than 500 into it total after getting the engine solid

 

doesnt look like its rusted or dented
you got a great deal on it too ^_^

enjoy it man these are great cars

 

fastener information including size, pitch and length are all in the shop manual. easy to find to download yourself. everyone should have a digital copy at least.

sometimes the same fastener information is available on the dealer parts description. easy to find online from multiple vendors.

that being said, you shouldnt use anything but an OEM bolt. every bolt on a honda is specified and designed for many other features than just the pitch and length, such as the size and type of head, should length, tip design etc.

theres no excuse, you can buy any fastener from the dealer. or find them readily still in the junkyard.

 

Thanks tyson!


got all the bolts figured out
quick question about my starter/battery wiring

does my positive battery cable run to starter, and starter back up to the panel/box (that I believe is starter relay,ect..)

or does my positive battery cable run to the box, then from the box to the starter?
been searching all morning and can't find any pictures or clear cut answer. Thanks

 

better way to ask, does this ripped wire connect to battery, or starter?

 

goes to batery

on the positive terminal there should be two wires that come off it
one to starter and one to the fusebox

 

Thanks for answering my questions guys 😁

she's running like a beast. Sorta proud, my first engine removal/rebuild/install

scored a nice set of wheels & tires for $100. Getting plates today, she'll be all over this state in no time! Lol

 

nice!! we have one more on the road again ^_^

 

When I tried getting new engine mount bolts thru the dealer, they told me they are no longer available and to use standard hardware, haha!!

I did not, but the bolts used on mine are OEM but appear to be for the wrong application and are too long, using stacked washers. I also have no junkyards near me with any Hondas, so if there is a source online for where to get new OEM bolts I'd be thrilled to hear it!

 

looks available to me.

True that one is, but I needed numbers 15, 18, and 33 in that first illustration which are not.

Sweet, thank you! I'll double check if those lengths will work in the EF.


Edit: Nope. I called and 90182-SK7-000 (the 12x100) was replaced by 90165-ST5-000, which has also been discontinued. Still no luck!

Checking into 90183-SR3-000 and 95801-12120-08 which are also 12x100.
