I'm in the process of putting my engine back into the car, and for some reason i put these 4 bolts (pics below) in the bag with all of the other engine bolts, however, i can't seem to figure out where they go.. . I'm pretty sure they don't hold on the throttlebody anywhere, and I watched Bruce Turitine's how to overhaul your 13b again, but he didnt' seem to take them out, when he had the whole engine/throttlebody assembly sitting on his bench.

Anyone know where they go?
Thanks!

no one?

 

its not the one that hold the A/C pump, the alternator, the air pump and the P/S pump?

 

that's a good point, ti coudl be to the AC or Air pump... hmm... i'll have to see if i can find one of those to check now

thanks

 

Hugo20 - you were right, they were definatly to the AC pump... now i can throw them away and not worry about it

Thank you!

 

Wonko! NEVER Throw away nuts and bolts!

Mazda uses great quality hardware on their cars. I don't know about you, but all my local hardware stores only stock a limited selection of low-quality metric hardware. Numerous times I have saved various car and household projects by dipping into my "Mazda" bolts bin.

It's Murphy's Law - toss them and you will need them, usaully badly, within days. Keep them, and they will take up space as "junk" for years - until you need them and wham - right there. Those long ones come in hady for all sorts of fun stuff too.

 

Jec - you're right, i'm too much of a pack rat to throw things like that away anyway... I just like to sound like i'm tough and organized online

 

tranny side?

 

Those look exactly like the ps/ac bolts. BTW excellent handle the guide is probably the best book ever written
