cylinder head covers

[wilcoy02]

What is the best way to replace the rubber setting on the bolt that goes in the cylinder head cover?

Thanks

You can order new ones from Honda

Cut the old ones off. Soak the new ones in hot water for a few minutes, or use a heat gun, to soften them up. Then slip them over the "nub" on the bolt. They're usually a pretty tight fit, but heating them up helps. Make SURE the washer is on the end of the bolt first! :yes:

I cut the old rubber off. As suggested, I used a heat gun to make the new rubber more elastic. Pushed the new rubber on with a socket that fit the rubber. Heated and pushed right on.

Thank You for the suggestion.

Glad it worked for ya. I should have also mentioned a little lubricant would help, too... :yes:
