ok everyone, I got alot of pics of the work that was done, my other carb was dead, so they took the carb from my donor 84 a few months ago, and he installed that one, and also we found out that my wheel bearing was completely shot and I was very close to probably crashing... ENJOY!

It seems you have access to some nice tools and a warm shop!

By I need an older Accord. Too bad they all rusted out here in Quebec.

Sweet! Now I bet the car doesn't track all over the road. I had that same wheel bearing replaced on mine at the Schwab. It was nice to have fixed.

dude, my advice is to get it checked ASAP because yeah it cause cause more pain than good in the future.... at least get it checket out, the way I could tell was my lugs and all were tight and I jacked it up just enough to get it off the ground, and it still was loose enought to have about an inch of play, so yeah please do your self a favor and check it out, I dont wanna see anybody get in crashes... It was scary stuff driving it like that

I think you should be worried about the other things in Sprite and Root Beer and other types of soda. It's not the caffeine that's the worst thing.
