Hello gents. Completely new here. I was refered here by a member but have no idea what his nick is. EIther way looks like a good place to get some info.
I have a 86 prelude racecar but it has a 88 accord 2.0 carb motor. Now we're having big problems getting it going. Ever since last year i've been having problems with oil leaks. From crank seals to oil pan gaskets. Now we are having problems with the oil filters blowing the seals.
Not really sure what's causing it but we think it has to do with the carb and vacume lines. Almost (actually all) of the vacume lines are plugged off on the carb. My question is , is there some of the lines that are needed? remember thee is no heater in this car or anthing like that. It's guted. Only need the necessary things to make it run.
Also another question. There's a pipe that runs from the intake manifold to the exhausst manifold. What is the purpose of that pipe and what would happen if you just plug both ends????
Hope to hear from someone soon.
