Removing and Installing Valve Cover Bolt Grommets For Hondas

In this video I'll show you how to remove old grommets and install new grommets onto valve cover bolts for SOME Honda vehicles. The particular Honda that is being worked on in the video is an 05 Honda Odyssey. The bolt designed used on this vehicle is similar to other Honda vehicles. (Sorry, I do not have a list of Honda vehicles that have this particular bolt design. If your bolts look similar to the bolts in the video then this video will likely work for you or at least help a little.) The bolt has a rib on it just above the threads of the bolt. This can make removing and installing new grommets a real pain. There is a trick though and I go over this in the video.

Folks, I don't guarantee that this video is right for all Honda vehicles out there. I would always suggest using an appropriate repair manual for the vehicle that you are working on to confirm the proper way to do this. Using incorrect repair methods could result in improper repair and or damage to your vehicle. Use this technique at your own risk.

Note: At about the 3:10 mark I have text on the video explaining "this is the same 32mm socket we used earlier". This whole video is actually taken from a larger video showing how to replace the valve cover gaskets on my van. So, if you where confused that's why. You'll have to see the whole video to see where I used it earlier.

Here is a link to the whole video sowing how to replace the valve cover gaskets on my 05 Honda Odyssey 3.5L Touring.
