    New Honda owner

    My name is Josh I live in Northern Arizona. Just stopped in because I saw this was a great site for information and everything needed to keep these things running. I've been working on cars and rock crawlers for over 10 years now and can't get enough. I love electrical issues. I've done everything from Lowered to lifted and keep doing the same cycle back and forth. Glad to meet ya'll.

    I purchased an 87 honda Accord LX for 75 dollars. The owners stated it needs head gasket. Run the car around the block for quite a while and it doesn't even smoke. Compression test is in order I feel just to make sure. I did notice the brake master was low on fluid and have heard they can leak into the engine which creates the white smoke effect. Man I sure hope so.

    Well I'll get some pic's but... To give you a description, They painted the car with the old rattle can rust colored spray. The interior is in great shape however the person who installed the stereo must have been a kid. It'll fix up pretty easily. Especially once I get the carputer installed in the broken stereo mount in dash. At least that's the current plan.
