Default Re: Valve cover stud replacements

Dario, not sure if you fixed this yet, but another posted
the same problem at rec.autos.makers.honda today. See the
thread on the "91 Honda Civic Valve Cover Broke... " there.

This happens a lot. It appears people mostly have success
getting the studs out using one or two techniques.

The studs are a dealer item. I would order it online from,
say, www.cheapesthondaparts.com , using www.slhonda.com to
get the right part number, or just buy from www.slhonda.com
..
