Abstract: A tool for preassembling with an oil pan a bolt-locating isolator rail and a gasket such that the isolator rail locates a plurality of bolts for securing a flange of the oil pan to an engine block and the gasket forms an oil-tight seal between the flange and the engine block. The tool has a head, a body and a neck between the head and the body. The neck is of reduced diameter relative to the adjacent portions of the head and the body. The head has a first slot adapted to receive an aperture in the gasket. The neck is adapted to receive an aperture in the flange. The body has a reduced midsection adapted to receive an aperture in the isolator rail.

Abstract: A multi-part vibration isolating fastener assembly includes a bolt having a threaded shank and a head about which a sleeve and resilient grommet are disposed. A cup washer is disposed about and captured axially on the grommet to provide a unitized assembly. The integrated cup washer defines a self-contained cup-shaped socket to provide proper support and containment for the grommet in applications where the usual cup-shaped grommet wall is lacking in the components to be assembled, such as a valve cover, and cylinder head.
