Flywheel removed to expose the location of the two "missing" pan bolts. Note for the future. If the manual shows the flywheel removed there is probably a reason. Like all things mechanical, any attempt to save time by taking a shortcut is usually just a way to waste more time. Also the bolts are a lot harder to get started when they are put in the evening AFTER the RTV was applied :)


Flywheel back on. Torqued per the Honda Fit Manual specs. Big thanks to my father-in-law for loaning me his 1/2 breaker bar. It made the process infintely easier. (I used it on the front crankshaft bolt to hold the engine while I removed and then replaced the bolts).
