    Time for the re-assembly process.



    From here, it's just a matter of putting everything back in place with the consideration for the sequence so not much photos, I'm afraid.



    Oil level gauge and A/C idler pulley are installed and the Front/Rear mid TB covers are now back in place.

    While removing the Eng oil cooler, noticed that one of the two coolant hoses was already deformed and fattening.


    Sooner or later, it would have busted so glad that we decided to replace all of the coolant hoses this time.

    As seen on other NSX, upper two bolts on the oil cooler didn’t have enough sealant.

    Looks like it was not reapplied during the last TB service.

    ENG Oil cooler re-installed by using liquid gasket on the upper two bolts.


    No need for the liquid gasket at the lower bolt.

    Just keep removing the parts….


    Noticed that during the last TB service, some of the bolts for the TB mid covers were not placed back and missing.


    Not the first time to see this and quite common human error, I’m afraid.

    Due to the valve cover gasket not replaced or not installed properly during the last TB service, there were lots of oil seepage behind the crank pulley. ...
