    Re: K20a swap Contact HASport , as they've put a K-20 or K-24 in just about everything. Also they're located semi-close by in Nevada. They could even do a K-24T for you. :)

    Done with repairs!!!

    Well, that's cool. Did you decide whether you're staying on campus, or driving home everyday? Personally I'd stay on campus, and park the Rogue in the parking lot there. Then for weekends drive home and cruise the Honda.That'll keep the miles off it. And the Rogue is just an appliance any way.

    One of my latest issues of Honda Tech, showed a video of them doing a K24T in a 98 Civic. They swapped in for just over $3K as a comparison against doing a B swap. They used an Accord engine for the swap. They also had an Accord (5th gen) they were doing.

    Contact HASport for motor mounts. They've put a K20 or even a K24 in everything.

    How to replace the gas tank, the easy way with pics!

    The only thing that was rusted up on mine was the left rear strut bushing thru bolt. I had to cut it out, due to the bolt rusting to the sleeve. Everything else came out like it was supposed to.

    Enne's 1989 Honda Prelude Si 2.0 4WS

    Glad you found your issue with that spark plug. Man, that rotor screw looks beat. I've only seen 1 other like it (my son's 98 Civic). We found it doing a tune up. If the filter on the left was supposed to look like the filter on the right, it was really dirty.

    Missing Parts! Important For Finishing Timing Belt Replacement Project???

    Congrats on doing all that work.:) I hope you rolled the engine over about 6 times after getting both belts changed. It's one of those things I do to make sure everything is good to go. As for the upper sprocket at the camshaft, there's an arrow on the back side that should point straight up...

    The single nut is a jamb nut. The rod actually has the other "12mm nut" on it (it's like a double ended stud).

    Missing Parts! Important For Finishing Timing Belt Replacement Project???

    Don't turn on the engine, and don't turn the engine while the belt is off. Doing so can damage the engine, because some valves might be extended (open) that will hit the piston. While you have the belt off, replace the water pump.

    You adjust pedal height thru the clevis attaching point inside the car (up under the dash). Mine uses two 12 mm wrenches to adjust.

    Don't use the rear tow hook point, as that'll collapse the trunk floor. BTDT, had to get the BFH out to fix it.

    lug nuts and breaker bar

    I hear you. Man I think about all those cheap azz steel lug wrenches/jack handles I broke years ago and it makes me feel like a "He man". I've even broke the nub off of 1/2 inch breaker bars trying to break loose a nut torqued to 217 ft lbs. First time I thought the breaker bar was wounded, but...

    Jacking up car

    Use the plate like it's called out in the owners manual, then put the jack stands in place like I posted above. If you're removing the tires, break the lugs loose before lifting it.

    Jacking up car

    In the owners manual, it shows 4 square plates hanging down from the rockers. Those are the jack points that you use for jacking up the car, unless the metal they're welded to is rusty, or rusted out. Let me guess, your 1 owner car didn't come with an owners manual.:henry:

    Jacking up car

    Look in your owners manual for "changing a flat tire". It'll be toward the back of the book. Once you have it up, in front, look for something solid like a boxed beam to put your jack stand under. In the rear, you'll look for something solid like a control arm mount where it attaches the body...
