Hi Guys

I am newbie having a 93 SE...
First the good news. I worked on my car for the first time my self. I cleaned TB.. there was lot of black stuff sticking on the gold colored plate on the TB... I cleaned it well..
Then I got inspired and I set on another endeavor for the evening.. It was dark already by then and I was tired ...I thought of checking the coils.. I got the first two on the upper engine (close to driver).. for the last one I got it out...

But when I put it back then I was kind of distracted... the bolt just dropped in to the small gap in the engine besides the coil... !!!

I couldn't see any thing after that..
Wold it have gone close to spark plug area..?

I don't want fatal engine damage becuase of this... will i be able to remove my self...

Or some body (service shop) will be able to do it for me with out charging me a fortune...


Please advice...

 

Yes. Use a small part grabber to get at it. A hardware store will probably have one. (or some chewed gum and a stick. )

 

what he said...you can pick up a telescoping magnet almost anywhere and that should get it out for you. They look like a antenna with a magnet on the end of it.

Good luck.

Thanks guys for the quick answers..
One last question...
Cn I run my car in that condition... ?
Won't there be any problems if I run it?
Thanks

 

I wouldn't drive it if I wanted to have a chance at finding the bolt....

 

or shorting out the system...

 

get a magnet...chewing gum doesn't help the ring too much..LOL
