Special Honda tools in shop manual, where to buy
I have the Helm Honda shop manual for a 2000 Accord. It mentions several special Honda tools. Does anybody know where to obtain them? I did a Google for the part numbers and nothing comes up. I don't think the dealer has them, and besides they would charge exhorbitant prices.

Post them for us.. :) :) |
I'm rebuilding a BX7A V-6 auto tranny. It's to prevent the three axle shafts from turning when you torque the top caps to 123-166 ft-lbs. I know you can use a shop rag jammed between the gears but it gives a little so a bit harder to torque the caps compared to the shafts being mechanically locked.
Anybody know if I install the torque converter and lock that with a flywheel holding tool, it will hold the shafts? I think not, because of the way a torque converter works. Actually I found the 07GAB-PF50101 tool on some Honda parts sites, but $70. |
If you take the part number and plug it into any online Honda dealer site such as hondapartscheap.com or hondaautomotiveparts.com you can buy the tool that way or Snap-On will also have one but both of those places will be expensive. The crank pulley is torqued down as much as anything. What I do when I need to pull the flywheel is put a socket on the crank bolt and a breaker bar and when you turn the flywheel bolts eventually the breaker bar will bottom out against the suspension and will keep the flywheel from moving.
Yes, there's a special tool that you put on the transmission that holds the flywheel, honda calls it a ring gear holder but my method works just as good. |

I'm thinking $70 for the tool is nothing compared to the ripoff $3000-4000 the shops charge to rebuild this tranny. When I used to rebuild V-8 engines, you definitely need a flywheel locking tool with the engine in the stand, to install the harmonic balancer. |
