Why didn't the mechanic at least give you the correct oem part number from your existing pads, or tell you what was wrong (too tall, wide, thick, wrong shape etc.)? Pretty lazy of them to just tell...
Can't help with your specific problem but what was egt when you hit 16 afr? That's the important factor and will tell you whether your engine will live or die. Tuning to afr is arbitrary and never...
Found this on another thread:
To retain D-series AC Compressor on B-series you need a CRV B20 A/C Compressor bracket (P7J).
If you use B-series A/C Compressor you'll need matching A/C lines
Yeh I don't know if there were any other factory b series fitted to eg's. The compressors have the hose connections in a different spot on the b series engines so you need the correct hoses to fit...
I would guess that you need the compressor and lines from a SiR (though compressor can come from any b series). I'm pretty sure that the under dash parts are the same. I think that the condenser will...
Yep. Dedicated track car (which may one day see a race track). Not 100% sure but I think if you remove the under tray you should have pretty good access. There are only 2 bolts (14mm and 17mm...
Mine is a k swap into ek4, and has no air con, power steer etc., so there's nothing in the way. I just come in from the front - there's plenty of room in front of the engine to get at it.
It's directly under the intake manifold at the engine to gearbox mounting face. Dunno how hard it is to reach in your car but on my ek with the same engine it's literally a 10 minute job to change...
There are lots of other bushes under there.
Just remember it's hard to diagnose loose suspension components when the car is jacked up. With the suspension at full droop all of the bushes and joints...
As Andrew said, ambient temperature only affects the oil viscosity when the engine is cold (which is what the first number relates to.) Hot viscosity (the second number ) is not affected at all (...
I was apprehensive too but it appears to have done the trick. For now I just rigged up a relay to test the theory and tested it about 8 times. Each time the starter engaged perfectly without any...
Yeh the solenoid kicks out (I tested it on the bench the first time I had it out ). I had it apart and everything looked good (brushes, commutator and wires / terminals from what I could see. I...
I'm having the same issue with a K24 starter. I had it rebuilt - new solenoid fitted. Auto elec said that the rest of the starter looked good so he just cleaned it up and reassembled.
Obviously...
And pulling pistons out through the bottom? Dunno how Honda design their blocks but I haven't come across too many blocks that let you pull the pistons out through the bottom. Usually the castings...
Power steer pump makes more of a whine - a bit like a blower sound. It should get louder as it loads up when turning the wheel. What's the fluid look like? If you're convinced its the ps pump, try...
Belt might be loose. If it's been replaced it might have been a little on the loose side and as its worn in it's loosened up a bit. The chirp is probably a/c cutting in.
Yep both my ek4's are (were) chipped. I had an EG6 which had a slightly smaller key (not chipped). The ek4 key is still the black plastic unit but just a little bulkier around the plastic section....
Just google dba pdf catalogue. They have a full pdf catalogue for cars available in Australia up to about 2013. It can be found on their site but can take a bit of searching (can't find it when I...
Any car I've kept longer than 3 years has usually needed a new battery before 4 years are up. I don't think that 3.5 years for a new car battery is unusual. Probably not what I'd call good, but not...
Not offended at all. You're the one deleting threads because you deem them to be offensive / generalising against a demographic, then in the next breath generalise about a different demographic. You...
