Idk bout purple on ur green bay. Id say gold or red.Originally Posted by obdriver6
And thanks, i havent put em in yet & prob wont for a while.
I just got word that i have basic training on the 2nd so ill be gone for 8 weeks, come back then HOPEFULLY go to tech school asap. I wanna get my 18weeks done.
Yea I would try the dish soap too.
The fender washers are pretty cool, better then the stock ones since they always get beat up and stripped of paint.. well in my case at least haha.
Lookin' good.
Finish installing what you got before you go Please. Dont make go into a bunch of philisophical reasons why......
I have one more tophat extension to make today and press in some lower joints and mine will be 90% done, won't put it all in till it cools off just a tinch though lol

Hell yea its unversal! Lol just type in fender washer on ebay. 99% are standard honda sized 10mm.
Also i replaced the brushes in my alt:
And replaced the water pump while i was in there and the cars batt is more charged but wont run unless its hooked up too the batt.
Aka i did the pulled the neg off the bat while running test and it failed. Any ideas?
not much left of those old ones :O
i would be guessing faulty voltage regulator in there
Pull the neg cable off? Im old schoOl and wouldn't even do that, maybe the pos cable. Check the see thru fuses unser the hood, if the white alt wire shorted even briefly it pops the hi amp fuse.
May wanna check bulk connectors where you did the wire tucks
, could have a wire pulled out?
Of course the voltage reg is prime suspect like A18 said.

How much voltage are you putting out atm? I'm guessing the regulator is out too.
Also, the game.
Haz i hate you.
And yea its the easiest way to test an alt, disconnct th batt while the car is running. If it dies mean alt is shot.
As far as the wire tuck went, i dont think i did anything to the wires that had to do with the alt besides the fusebox, abd that was just re routing wires, no cutting.
But ill find out how much voltage im putting out soon, i have no micrometer at my apt.

Maybe but I wont know until I try it and I've always wanted to incorporate some purple into my car!
Idk km picky bout color combos, but do it, u never kno what works man esp with cars lol
Lol super late update, car died on my way to work the other day, was stick 4 exits from where i needed to be. decided that it had to be voltage reg. So i swapped out the brushes and runs/starts like a champ now.
Also im not going to basic next week. Tbey had me in the system for the wrong job and yea.... I want my bonus instead. So ill be in ga till further notice.
Late second post, i forgot to upload this.piv of a batt test i got a week ago.
Shows the bad volt reg.
Bleh so i just moved down the street from my old place and I have to move all my parts I have laying around, reminded me that I need to finish obd1, p&p a spare head, put my headers on, get a wideband, tune, and replace all my bushings. I wanna do this stuff before it gets too cold so be looking for legit updates(with pics and prob obd1 vids when the time is right)
Still unpacking stuff from the move past weekend & finding parts... Makes me sad but yea i found this today :
-_- i was checking to find out why my brakes were soft & squeaky and saw that. So list of stuff i need to fix in order is:
1. Master cylinder
2. Axel/ rear upper ball joints
3. Shot/missing bushings
4. Oil leak(i think it's the headgasket).
5. Exhaust(its all sorts of rigged from p.o.)
Slacking . (Taste of your own meds) hurry up fooooool lol

Lol yea dude I really am... But I don't have the funds to do everything I really need to do sadly.
Oh man. Sucks about that boot. I hate how one cheap piece of rubber going bad will ruin an expensive axle.
This. And it doesn't even Click when turning, just when I go from a dead stop... At first I thought it was a bad mount, but then I remembered I had that soils front mount so it couldn't be.
It didnt get a rip when you were installing the coilovers did, looks like it. Thats a big chunk to have happened only a short time, those forks can ouch tha bootie fix that bootay lOl
Think I paid like 44 bucks for a reman last one I got, you could pullapart one cheep! We gotta beat this daylight dst and cold is coming. I hate dst.
I think it was cracked a little before and somewhere along the way just exploded haha. But yea imma get a reman napa one prob. I love napa parts.
