Make sure your engine is cooled off when you begin. And have a new valve cover gasket handy just in case. Mine always expand when i removed it.

If one of my lines were cracked wouldn't i be leaking brake fluid?

I am fairly certain i have gotten all the air out of my system. But my brakes are still spongy. If however, i blip the throttle before i brake my brakes work just fine. If i don't 8 times out of 10 they just fall to the floor and nothing happens. I did all the tests listed in the honda manual...

I've watched a few videos on youtube, one was a B18C, other one was a prelude VTEC and both of them sounded like my motor. It's the valves but i just don't remember them sounding as mechanical as they do now before i replaced the head. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4vZHIOGLNBU

Would bent valves hinder the power of the the car? Could i do a compression test or is a leak down the only way to test it?

I have a B18A block with a B18B head. My exhaust cam is from a B18A, and the intake came is from a B18B. I assume i would use the valve clearances from the B18A for the exhaust and the ones for a B18B for the intake? My valves are knocking really bad and i have adjusted them before but...

Right. I guess what i should of said was do 80% of your braking before turning the wheel.

You should do all your braking before the turn. If your use your brakes in the turn your car will not be as stable and you will not have as much braking force. It can take some practice but you will be a better driver this way. I learned this from racing cross country on ATVs. Friend of mine had...

My front rotors were warped. Got them turned and no more shaking. Still have spongy brakes. I just don't see how my master cylinder could go out just like that. It's never given me problems in the past.

It's defiantly the fronts. The steering wheel shakes a little but my dash might as well fall off it shakes so hard. How do you gravity bleed the brakes? I may know what it is but not by that name.

I had somebody pumping the brakes while i bleed them. Pumped them a few times then held them and i opened the nipple. I made sure i had plenty of fluid in the reservoir in-between bleeding. It doesn't shake all the time tho is what confuses me. I just replaced pads and disks on my sister's...

I changed my rear brake pads and rotors last week. They were long over due. After about two hours of trying to get the piston to go back into the caliper i took the brake line off to try and cheat. Still wouldn't work. Eventually read you have to rotate the piston back into place. Did that and...

One quick way to rule out the dizzy i found is to try and start the car and watch the tach. If the needle bounces up and down the dizzy is fine. The computer knows it's firing and it should start. As soon as i replaced mine the needle started bouncing and fired right up.

They do have CKP. It's inside the dizzy. As well as the TDC sensor. I had this argument with a guy at a local shop. Yea you can do it a hell of a lot cheaper than 1000. Make sure thats what it needs before you go buy a new dizzy. I got mine for $90 from delray honda in florida. I had bad...

sorry dude. didn't mean to act a fool yo. All jokes aside tho...Like the others said, nobody will be bale to tell you for sure.

106hp at the flywheel

Sorry. I looked briefly but didn't see it. I'd like to come. But my car has taken a beating lately.

Read about this on TI.net. Anybody else going? "I understand that I'm longwinded, but this is all important information. Please read the entire first post* Its getting to be that time again. Spork and I decided to put another cruise and meet together again this year but this time we're...

Your ghey if you have loud exhaust on your car with no motor work to justify a higher flowing exhaust.

My rent is 400 a month. So i gave him 300. He asked if that was enough but i didn't want to make a deal about it. If he wasn't a nice guy i would have called my insurance agent right there.
