So I searched around a bit, and couldn't really find the info I was looking for. So after painting my valve cover, during the reinstallation one of the bolts broke off as i was reattaching the nut to it. This on my B18A (90 RS). Anyways...I'm getting a very minor oil leak there, but don't wanna run the car like this. I haven't been driving the car and wanna do major tune up work to it anyway before driving (belts, water pump, ignition, etc), so I figure I should fix this while i'm at it.

Question is, can I just go to honda and buy the bolt for the head that comes up through the valve cover and install it into my head some how? if so, how would i go about this process...thanks in advance.

I have an idea....stop me if this sounds dumb.....call honda, ask for parts....then ask them if they can get a valve cover stud for a 90RS. post back what happens!

 

i would assume they carry the stud...but my concern is more about installing it.
