Anybody got any helpful tips on bolting the head back on a Civic EX d16y8. I followed the repair manuals directions. I have one question those little dowels that fit in between the head and block that fit down in a few of the holes that the head bolts go into how many are supposed to be there. My engine has two and it looks like it should have 2 more but I doesnt. I didnt hear any fall on the ground so is there only supposed to be 2?

 

Only 2 dowels are supposed to be there.

 

Thanks I thought there was only supposed to be 2 be wasnt exactly sure. Hey your a Nissan tech my brother has a 92 Nissan Sentra SE-R.
