Oil Jet Bolt Replacement | Honda S2000

Hey everyone! Today I’m going to show you how to replace the oil jet bolts on the Honda S2000. The oil jet bolts allow oil to pass from the engine block to the oil jets, which are responsible for squirting cool oil onto the underside of the pistons.

The main reason people replace the oil jet bolts is because they were improved after the 2002 model year. The revised oil jet bolts included four holes instead of two, which allowed more oil to flow through the oil jets. The second reason people replace the oil jet bolts is because they can actually break. There is a spring inside the oil jet bolt that ensures that oil pressure must exceed 28 psi before the oil jet bolt allows oil to pass through. When this spring breaks the oil jet bolt allows oil to pass through at all times and this can lead to low idle oil pressure. I’m replacing my oil jet bolts for the latter reason. Anyway, let's get to it.
