cool
14cyl ftw!
haha i meant 14 cyl. the big truck behind his accord is a 14cyl
:rockon: Today my mechanic and I changed out my old EGR valve...turns out the valve was okay but the passage running to it and out of it were both BLOCKED shut with carbon. We pooled it with some carb cleaner and let it soak a bit, then managed to push away all the carbon with a bent coat hanger.
I cant believe how bad carb cleaner smells when the shit burns, damn... also the mechanic bounced it off the redline once to clear the remaining of the carb cleaner out of it. Kinda scared me because ive never had my 3gee touch the redline before.
It never felt so good driving home and not having to see my CEL come on after it warms up :cheers:
Bad news...

My rear upper control arm broke free right as I was leaving town and I was speeding up to 70 on the highway...it broke around 50 mph. Any faster and im sure the tire would have blown and who knows if Id even be here right now :sadwave:
When it went it was just a clunk and i really didn't think much of it until i could smell my tire burning up against my rear strut, which was seconds later.
Its being trailered back up here and im going to have both rear upper control arms replaced. The driver side arm looks like its about ready to fall apart too.
got camber much :eek5:
damn! that sucks!
lucky it didnt happen any later.
hopefully it gets fixed soon
should get the front ones checked out to
its way worse if a front one breaks iv herd
Just a small update, today i picked up 2 new rear upper control arms, they come with bushings and everything. Tomorrow the car will be done, if not then by Wednesday for sure :)
wow that is scary
can you say... rear wheel steering ... that you can not control.. I think that is way worse than the front coming out.
this is an important area for everybody to be concerned with, no doubt about it
Well, my 3gee is all fixed up, only $76 to replace both upper arms in the rear...not bad at all :) Glad to hear that no damage was done to my strut when my wheel fell into it at 50 mph, or any other parts for that matter.
I'm going to pick her up next payday...I miss not having it in my garage allrdy even though my EF civic hatchie gives me good company too.
yeah good thing you got that fixed!
if you dont mind me asking.. what kind of exhuast are you running? what's your whole setup from headers back..

Sadly its all oem (but a whole new main pipe from the flex pipe back!) Other then that is just an over priced carbon fiber 3a muffler....it sounds good tho, not the usual cheap fart-can sound :)
Well, i got my 3gee back, the 2 new upper control arms look nice...feels safer too now lol. I'm happy to have her back in my garage :cheers:
More of a personal update, today i found out I passed the exam for my job, which means a $2/hour raise and being certified at my job for 5 years til i have to retake it. This was such a relief for me to find out, been eager to know all week!
As for my 3gee this means I will have my foot in the door and be set to keep my discount at my job for auto parts (50%+ discount on most parts!!) and have more money for both my beloved Hondas.
w0000oooooOOOOOOTTT!!!
Got my thermostat changed today as i put up in my technical post from the heat problems i had. All looks well now, just i need to get it re-timed, valves adjusted, main PS hose replaced, and a bad brake drum on the rear driver side fixed (Makes a odd creak sound when braking, its kinda off and on)
The rear wheel cylinder are a PITA on the accords. I usually replaced those everytime I replace the drums.
Yep, I'm still around...just been busy working over 40 hours a week. I recently found a shop that will install my struts/coils on my civic for $300ish (includes alignment too :) ) Vs the 1st $1000 quote i got....damn was that a ripoff quote lol.
All this means i might be able to get the work done on my accord that i had mentioned earlier this year before i put her away for winter. ^^
Today i did a simple swap of the front rims on my cars because the borbets are not made for winter use and i dont use my 3g during winter anywho. I have to admit they borbets look pretty good on my 3g :thumbup:
