Good show Bro.
That's what I hate about steel bolt and aluminum receiver.
They have a tendency to stick. DUH.

Good post Bill. I had the same problem on the '99 I restored a couple years ago, so jacked the front higher than the rear and filled the hole with some of that bearcat pee and let it sit over night. Then did the same thing with the heat gun, took a while but it worked.

Near as I can tell-and trust me I ain't an expert-mother Honda did NOT use anti seize in a lot of places I would have.  Lucked out when I R % Rd my alt. The machine screws that hold my speakers into the brass ferrules on the other hand!!  Even AFTER I had them all out and epoxied in the ferrules and anti seizing the machine screws one or two still managed to eff up BEFORE I got them out.  Course if all this stuff was easy-anybody could do it and mechanics would go out of business!!  And a hat tip to ALL of our in house wrenches who have saved me numerous hours and a fair pile of coin.  RIDE SAFE.

Great ideas, but I am curious, why wouldn't you remove the alternator cover first? One little slip and it would be garbage. I know with my luck between the heat and the hammer I would destroy it for sure.

Thanks for the show and tell Bill. Very frustrating indeed and why Honda didn't use anti seize is beyond me. Sometimes you have to dig deep for the patience that you demonstrated on that job.

Yup and waste of time too. I wish honda didn't drill hole all the way out that's where water get in there. If close on other end then it would not have problem at all.

I recently tried to remove the top two bolts of the alternator on my IS and found them stuck. My solution was to get the motor warmed up and I sprayed the bolt through the backside of the bolt hole and then head area with SiliKroil by Kano labs. I did that two days in a row. After the motor cooled to the point where it was still warm and I could touch it, I used a six point wrench and a hammer and tapped the wrench gently at first and then slightly increasing the impact. The broke free and came out easily.
After the bolt was out, I could see a small area of discoloration on the bolts where I believe they were stuck in the case. I ran the bolt through a thread restorer after soaking it with Kroil and then used antiseize. I retorqued the bolt, less 20% for the antiseize.
I should not have to worry about those bolts again. The lower bolt came out without a problem and did not have the small area of discoloration of the other two bolts.
