Hi everyone! nice page! I'm trying to change the VTEC Solenoide gasket in a Accord 99 but the bolts are backward and inaccessible. Any recommendations?

 

Moved your post to make a new thread.

You should take off the snorkel to the throttle body and probably should remove the entire thermostat housing to access that back bolt. That means you should change your coolant at the same time.

Two of the vtec solenoid bolts should be accessible. Do NOT use a boxed end wrench to loosen the bolt. Only use a ratchet and socket.

I am not sure what you mean by backwards?
