I've got an EK Civic here that I managed to auction for a friend for $800 off eBay. :)
It has no rego and needs some TLC on the body panels for a blue slip. Anyway, I'm not the best mechanic out there as I can only do level 1 servicing (Spark plugs, oil change etc.) for now. So any hard bits will be going to a mechanic.
I've drianed the oil, changed it and the filter. I've changed the air filter and spark plugs too. I've also emptied the stale coolant and put some decent castrol coolant in there.
The odometer says 250,000KMs, but I haven't got a log book to tell me what else has been done in all of this time. Would the timing belt need replacing yet? I have no idea on how to do that myself but I do know i'll probably end up changing the water pump in the process.
So what needs to be done?
Thanks.
