    Re: A18A's 1988 Vigor 2.0MXL

    they're 215/40/17. apparently smaller diameter than my white wheels

    i pulled the motor out of the poolude

    pulled it apart, not too bad back there


    gave it a bit of a water blast



    appears that the rocker cover was actually polished at some stage, but now its oxidizing lol.

    i put the manifolds from the other h22 onto this one and swapped the cams too, not sure if they where any differences between anything i changed though.


    now it's all ready for me to pull the motor out of the accord and chuck this one in

    Re: A18A's 1988 Vigor 2.0MXL

    well that lasted long, i'll be pulling it back out in the morning cause i believe the auto tensioner is failing lol. i need it going again by thursday to drive it 500 or so km reliably, so i may either put the f20 back in there for the week and get a new cam belt kit for the h22, or put another auto tensioner on the h22 and use it like that. thats what happens when you rush things.

    in other news i painted the exhaust heat shield black

    I reckon the engine bay looks perfect, now that i have to pull it all out again haha

    Man, you've got to be kidding. Catch a bus, hitch hike, whatever.

    coming from mister 500 b20as lol. it turned out to be a false alarm, problem was the crank pulley bolt was loose and the pulley was wobbling around making heaps of noise

    Re: A18A's 1988 Vigor 2.0MXL

    i had to lower the engine on that side to fit the socket & ratchet in there, then jack the car up on that side and stuck a screw driver in the brake rotor vent & put it in 5th gear then tighten, then forget the screw driver is in the rotor and attempt to drive away with it still in there lol
