Anyone got the special socket to remove the motor from the frame, just need to borrow it to get the frame checked. I would make one but I'm pressed for time. I'll pay for the shipping.

 

Check out this thread.

 

I'll have to see if that motion pro socket is available on island.

 

I removed the engine without the special tool. You can also make one if you wish, but, you will have to scrap one of your 22mm sockets.

 

thats what I did... i believe the haynes manual suggests it as an option, cant remember though...

 

If that's the case then great but won't I need it to re-install it properly per the Honda torque sequence, I downloaded the PDF file but haven't looked at it yet.

 

Thats the beauty of using a socket to make the tool.. it goes right on your torque wrench. And yes there is a torque sequence... ill try and take some pics tomorrow if i have time

 

I know there is a torque sequence, I was saying that do I need the special socket to do the torque sequence? I don't really have the time to make the socket right now and I may or will look into the MotionPro socket in the link to the thread that was given.

 

In short, yes.

 

That's what I thought.

 

I don't understand that sentence. It takes 10-15 minutes to make the tool with a grinder and a standard socket. Any other option will take days or longer shipped to HI, and cost more than the socket used to make the tool.

 

If its sold in shops here on island as there is a part number I need to reference, if not I will have to wait till I have time to do so to make one, that's why I asked if I can borrow one to begin with in the OP and I don't have a ....nope I don't have a grinder just a crappy air compressor, some cutting wheels and that one tool who's name I can't remember suddenly for no reason...and I lost my train of thought......yup, lost it.
