ok fuckers...i fixed it!
im back on! it turns out that just the oil drain plug fell out. but shit did that crap scare the fuck out of me! i just heard clank clank clankity clank CLANK! then all the oil came out. wow. so now i have a puddle of oil again in my driveway. dammit! lol. but anyway its fixed and im back on track. oh and i also changed my o2 sensors while i was at it :D
awesome!
cool...thank god it was nothing big...
ya i was starting to think i was going to have to an annoying monkey in my car lol, and having to think about buying some bananas!!! lol i j/k j/k
no really good thing it was only that, i wonder why it fell off
i think the idiots at the shop forgot to tighten it
but i have another problem now...i have the gay hesitation and boggin shit going on now....sucks so bad. oh and i got the damn exhaust leak again :(
phew!
you got kabob sticks monkey? or cheese since you're a chef and all
yeah cheese get them.
ok guys if i cant fix my car...i dont think im going to go. or if i go...ill have to take the vic. i dont trust my car right now :( im pissed sorta...more like this :crying:
oh that sucks i didnt realize it was that bad.. hope u fix ur car mang.. at least u have a back up though, even if it is a civic ;)
i dunno if this will help but check your spark plug wires.. mine was hesitating a lot after the engine bay was cleaned and it was due to a wire which had come lose
yeah im going to check the spark plug wires and see if switching the o2 sensors around will help. i think i might have crossed them or something
i dunno. at first when i started the car after the o2 install it ran like a chap. dude the idle even was awesome. but then when i took it on the fwy and actually pushed the pedal to the metal...it sucked :(
did this happen after you put the seafoam stuff in the car? like the noise from the exhuastQuote:

but the exhaust noise started after the seafoam. my thought is that i already had an exhaust leak. i had a pile of carbon under the exhaust tip i think the seafoam unclogged it. the leak...therefore i have it now.
mkymonkey -- So sorry to hear of your tribulations. Hope you can still make it up here one way or another for the meet. :)
yeah i really want to go...but it would suck to just take the civic....shit i mean its confy it has my $3000 sound system in it, tinted windows, and an auto...but its not the same
It's OK with da vic! I gotta take my truck cuz of the plywood then go back to get the car some time before you all decide on where we go for pix. lol It's the company that's important, no?
monkey, where's your exhaust leak?
you know i dont know. i havent got under the car to check. but every time i get on the car right about 4k it starts going like pah pah pah. not really loud but its there. plus it sounds like there's an exhaust leak cuz it sounds like vrrroom vrrrrom...roll your r's when you say it and thats what it sounds like lol. i guess i can take a vid of it and show you guys. maybe you can help me on the diagnosys. the leak is a reason why i wanted to get the cat back done. maybe it would have fixed it. im not sure, but it sounds like tis coming from the connection between the cat and the secondary pipe
sounds more like a miss to me. if you had a leak before the cat it would be a very loud popping noise any time you opened the throttle, like an old jalopy. an exhaust leak shouldn't really make the car run bad, only thing would be if you had a leak right at the header flange and it was heating up a spark plug boot, then that would be bad.
i hope you can still bring your car to the meet. if it breaks down on the way i'll come and fix it:D
lol are you serious? shit if youre serious about helping me fix it ill bring it! lol
i was doing a search and found a thread where busted blue had the same symtoms. so i think im going to check everything that they said there. i hope its not the coil cuz i have an MSD blasterII and i threw away the stock one. i dont want to spend another 50 bucks on another MSD coil :(
GUESS WHAT GUYS!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
COME ON GUESS!!!!!
I GOT THAT BITCH WORKING
before ya'll start asking questions on what was wrong...let me say this. i dont know. lol well i got home from work at 1am and i was bummed out about the car. i almost cryied man lol. so around 4 am i decide to go take a look at it. i find a flash light and go outside. i notice that the coil had a bit of corrosion on it so i cleaned it and put that anti corrosion shit they sell at autozone. i had it laying around in my tool shed. then i check the plugs, and cyl 3 had a plug with the ceramic broken. so i replaced it with another ngk. and then i switched the o2 sensors around and started the car. vrooooooooom no stumble no hesitation. so i dont know what did it but it worked. lol....i still have the exhaust leak but whatever....oh and it IS Loud....i guess since i almost always have the windows up i didnt realize that it was loud. but its not as bad as it was, it doesnt do the pah pah pah sound as often. but any fucking way im back on bitches!
*yay* for monkey!
