    Free Energy Drink!!!

    Did they scan the bar code or just accept the coupon by hand? I don't promote stealing or fraud but you could make a coupon on computer easily, and use it a few yards out of town (somewhere where you won't be back for years).

    Overheating problems!

    ^You could put a box fan in front of the radiator, that would simulate driving the car. (in terms of air passing through the radiator fins)

    help!!!

    check your fuses first, the panel that covers them labels them . I doubt your relay is broke, if it is and your in a hurry, take out your horn relay and switch it with the lighting relay. I don't know if it's lighting relay 1 or 2.

    surging like crazy?! Input needed on trouble shooting

    Replaced the iacv gasket, idle is down to 1.5k revving to 2.5k about every 1-2 seconds (with idle screw backed out). Rpms hold at 1.5k for about 4 seconds before it starts jumping to 2.5k. I checked the iacv by starting engine, plugged the hole in throttle body with thumb. That dropped the...

    Overheating problems!

    There's a bleed screw at the thermostat housing, loosen that while it runs, but add coolant to the radiator as it drains out (keep it topped off).

    Just my ****in luck

    Sorry to hear of accident. If your insurance won't cover the damage and you have to take it to a shop, see if you can find a shop that will dolly and hammer that out. Someone with dh experience could bang that out. It'll be way cheaper than replacing the whole 1/4.

    how to seal head gasket with valve cover

    Do you have it seated around the spark plug tubes correctly? If it's not, the edge of the ring seal would be caught on the edge of the plug tube.

    how to seal head gasket with valve cover

    You mean the valve cover gasket? What do you mean it won't stay on rite? Are you putting to much torque on one bolt at a time? I usually I tighten down in 4-5 lbs increments.

    What are your compression #?

    A few days ago I did my first compression test at 147K miles and I got 210 evenly across the 4 cylinders. My parents always laugh how it takes me literally 10 hours to change my oil, and why I let my car idle to full temp even in the summer. Was wondering where other accords compression is at...

    ^ yeah I changed the gaskets on the plenum, tb and the one to the head. All was cleaned and torqued to spec. Torque specs said 16 lbs on both plenum and head. The only gasket I re-used was the iacv. I ordered one and will have it tomarrow to change. Vac leak is what I suspected also, but why...

    DIY make a mount bracket for intake

    ^ if you want to make it sturdier (this one is pretty sturdy though), you could try a piece of 1/2'' x 1/2'' aluminum "angle iron". Cut off a 5'' strip and bend the single side around the pipe. That would add more support vertically ...if your rally driving or something like that.
