    Codes from my check engine

    bank 1 doesn't mean sensor.. it just means head.. on a 4 cylinder there's only one head, so a code for a cat OR an O2 sensor will say bank 1, whereas a 6 or 8 cylinder could say bank 1/bank 2... bank 1 sensor 1 or sensor 2 is for the sensor before (1) or after (2) cat.. if it just says bank 1...

    Codes from my check engine

    cats get clogged though, especially if the egr valve is faulty... unbolt the cat and bang it on the ground a little bit AFTER you fix the egr (which you can usually just spray with carb cleaner and use a new gasket). it doesn't cost anything to do that, and if it doesn't work THEN u get a new cat.

    One problem after another...its a semi long story

    i'm gonna assume you have an auto? check your tranny fluid... if the tranny cooler inside your radiator cracked or is rotted through, that's where all of your coolant went. if i'm wrong and you have a standard, just disregard this post lol

    Crankshaft Bearing Replacement?

    buy a spare that's got blown rings or somethin, and rebuild it. when it's all set, drop it in... that way you won't be without your car.

    Crankshaft Bearing Replacement?

    ^^ agreed. it really does depend on what you want to do. but, if you DO decide do go ahead with it, it's pointless to just replace the one bad bearing.. once you get it all apart you might as well replace all crank/rod bearings and seals. if you want some resources check out...

    Crankshaft Bearing Replacement?

    my first question... is your car running like **** or leaking oil? if the answer is no, then you just solved your whole "problem". doing crank bearings isn't just a matter of dropping the oil pan and pop 'em out-pop 'em in... you're pretty much getting into a whole rebuild w/ pullin the engine...

    quick head question..

    quick head question..

    what it's gonna cost to get the head serviced, valves, springs... the f22 head is 250

    quick head question..

    old engine snapped a rod... snapped rods = bent valves and seat/guide problems. got a rebuilt block.. just need a head now.

    quick head question..

    ya i didn't think so. he just told me that if i use my cam and rockers that i'd still be able to use the a5 head... true? i just don't wanna get stiffed... and what about the f22?
  19. M

    quick head question..

    i'm in need of a new head. i was just wondering if the f22b1 head will fit on my f23a1 block without any mods or losing my vtec.. also, is the f23a5 vtec?.. i didn't think it was, but the guy who's sellin it says it is..

    revs limited in neutral no CEL manual tran no accel

    doesn't necessarily mean he needs a new motor... if the rings are blown then yea, get a new motor.. but if it's just valve train.. get a new head.

    same exact problem? was your gauge working? cuz my h2o temp gauge is working fine..

    revs limited in neutral no CEL manual tran no accel

    compression tests are easy to do.. u just need the gauge and the know-how. if you're not comfortable doing it yourself, take it to any mechanic and they'll do it for you. depending on how low the comp. is and which cylinders it affects, it could be a head gasket, blown rings, or a bad head...

    revs limited in neutral no CEL manual tran no accel

    ya the car runs... it just runs like ****. i'm stumped cuz i've never seen this problem before.. maybe oil pressure sensor?

    revs limited in neutral no CEL manual tran no accel

    i'm having a very similar problem with my car.. i just put a rebuilt in it, and it's now got the problem that you're having.. i've never had a problem before this, but now all of a sudden it's happened. Everytime i give it anymore than like, 25-35% throttle it boggs down and wants to stall.. but...

    Please Help Fix My Car!!!

    ya i had looked at that one... you're right that's not a bad price at all, but i'm strapped right now... i got an extra head that i threw on for now... it'll run for the next couple weeks til i can splurge for a rebuilt.
