Great tutorial, thanks! Replaced the alternator without pulling the power steering pump. I did remove the washer fluid tank mouth (funnel looking part) for a bit more clearance.
Nice work. That HF slim ratchet really helped! FYI, 2 easy 12mm fasteners hold the PS pump; you can just move it a little and get the alternator out. Also, a semi deep 12mm socket will easily get to those lower bolts... I just did this job a couple of days ago; I did not have my semi deeps with me but a tiny 1/4 flex ratchet and deep got 'er done. A few Band Aids were in order. Again, great job! Those 1st gen TSX are amazing cars. They were the European and Japanese Accord.
Would I be able to get to the bottom bolts with a wrench? Just like a normal one because I don’t have a flex ratchet or would I be able to fit a normal ratchet in there ?
Is very well possible to remove with your standard wrench. I would maybe couple two wrenches together if need be to gain more leverage. A long flex head ratcheting wrench makes much easier and quicker to work with.
If they r goin to keep that car for a few more years, they should have gotten a OEM alternator. Honda alternators last a lonnnnnnngggg time. Cost more but worth it.
Gotta thank you bro. Only reason I was able to replace my alternator by myself is this walkthrough.
Score 🙌🏾 Glad to be of assistance 🫡

What size wrench u use to take it off bro
What part exactly are you referring to?
The most needed to be removed if necessary was the right fan. Nothing else.
Thanks
Nice tutorial. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
@@floydblair3824 much appreciated. Always room for improvement 🙏🏾

Yea I agree. I always recommend oem but most folks would rather take that gamble the cheap part. Keeps me busy at least, I suppose 🙇🏾♂️
