I have just purchased an 88 accord for $75. The body and interior are in great condition. The engine does not run. The owner was driving it a the oil light flashed a coule of time, heard a noise and quit running. I am thinking the timing belt went, but am unsure at the moment. I fi need a new motor that's ok with m3 for $75 dollar car. Anyone have any insight?
Does it turn over? and is it F/I or carb?
LX-R coming soon Here's a hint. 89mm stroke/ 41.60cc head /ARP head & main stud's /SRP piston's 81.5mm 9:5:1/Crower Rod's & more to come
I does not turn over and it is carb.
so you mean you can hear the starter engage but no cranking???

probably ran out of oil and seized the motor.

yeah sounds like the motor locked up. try turning the motor with socket manually.

$75, well, from what we said on here i guess you'll need to buy a motor.
plus you can convert to efi!

Get a socket on the crank bolt and see if you can turn it. Give you some idea how bad the motor could be locked up.

Thanks for the info, I will find out what is wrong on my next day off. I figured for the cheap price I could afford to play a little.
