Default Intake manifold bolts

I was tightening up my intake manifold bolts yesterday and noticed that I had one missing!!. Does anyone know the part number for this bolt to get it from Honda or should just go to autozone or lowes and pick up a 1" 12mm bolt there?

Just go to your dealer. Have them bring up the intake manifold diagram on their parts computer and show them which one you need.

How often are you having to tighten your intake bolts? Did you try any of the fixes that Marcucci outlined for preventing them from loosening? If you installed your Hondata gasket very long ago, you may want to check out his write-up again. He has several improvements to help fix this problem.

I installed the gasket about May '02 and hadn't checked them until now. I checked all other bolts and they were pretty tight. But that one fell out. Thanks for the help gernby.

One solution that is working well is Loctite. I have yet to redo mine, but the one that I have done so far has NOT had the bolts loosen (obviously), but it has also had NO coolant usage.
