ok... so i took out the engine and the engine-to-tranny flange bolts are stripped (the hex head, that is)... where can i find these bolts?? i've tried the mazda dealers, ACE Hardware, Orchards, Home Depots.... no luck... is there some certain place i can get these flange bolts?? store, or websites perhaps? i think these are grade 9 bolts...?

i know junkyard is one place to get them, but since im replacing them i might as well get new ones so they would last longer and i would have another resource to get things when i need to...

help... please?

 

^bump

 

Mazda couldn't order them for you? Look in the yellow pages under FASTENERS-INDUSTRIAL & CONSTRUCTION

 

those bolts were not listed as parts, i saw it on their computer myself... they said the bolts are just usual bolts you see in hardware stores, which i couldn't find because 1) they are metric, and 2) they are grade 9, and i can only find 8.8

 

Obviously another Mazda parts guy who doesn't have a clue--go back and tell him to pull up 1600 for a non turbo and 1600A if you have a turbo---the bolts are right there

 

what's the 1600A thing? is that the page number or something for the catalog?

 

Go to www.mazdaformance.com

Down load adobe viewer

Look your self and call them with a part number.

And the page numbers I found in my '91 diagrams is 1-C-9 and 1-D-9.

You nead engine 1/4

 

I think British Victoria has those

 

1600 and 1600A are the page nos on Mazda's Electronic Parts Catalogue.The part nos are given on the drawings but are not listed in the parts list.You have to transfer the part no from the drawing onto the electronic order form.Your friendly Mazda parts guy should be capable of doing that

 

the Parts Catalog!! duh... i have that the whole time on my computer!! why didn't i think of that?? *slaps forehead*

...now that i look at the catalog, i think we were looking at the wrong section at the dealers... heheh... thanks guys!!
