Re: Intermittent starting with key, works every time if I contact solenoid trigger wi

Could be the ignition switch, but that would be totally unrelated to your recent swap. Double check all your grounds around the engine bay, battery cables, etc. Sounds like the starter is fine.

Re: Wagovan Rear Brakes

Love the Battle Wagon!

rockauto is where I bought my wagon rear brakes from... rotors, shoes, and wheel cylinders. For whatever reason, there are more wagon parts if you look up for '89.

Re: Throw out bearing won’t make contact with clutch.

90-93 Integra (cable) transmissions mated up to B20 engines (JDM or otherwise) is very common in an EF. Tried and true.

Just throwing out an idea: Inside the clutch housing area of the...

Re: Throw out bearing won’t make contact with clutch.

With your hand, lift the arm until it stops. THAT is the point where the bearing starts making contact with the clutch. Adjust the cable so the arm doesn't go back down. (well, it goes back down a...

Re: main relay question?

The brown stuff is normal, not "fried", but there are cracked solder joints that need to be repaired. Pretty much EVERY old Honda suffers this problem at some point.

Re: Can't retard timing any further 91 Civic DPFI

Very possible. Vacuum leaks will cause an idle to GO UP, not go down. And like v4lu3s said, you can't set timing unless the idle is correct. Fix the high idle by fixing the vac leak, then your timing...

Re: tranny swap help

Are you sure they are "snapping" into place? You may not be pushing hard enough - it can be a pain sometimes. Don't beat on the boot to help it go in, or you will cause a break in the rubber.

Re: tranny swap help

I believe all 88-91 civic axles fit into all 88-91 d-series transmissions. The inner CV joints should all be the same. The only fitment issues are at the wheel end of the axles. The CRX Hf and the...

Re: Potential first Honda purchase...advice appreciated

Price sounds fair. There were two different dpfi engines - the 90hp d15b2 that came in most 88-91 Civics (slow), and the 70hp d15b1 that came in the STD hatches (REALLY slow). Furthermore, the STD...

Re: Std 4speed to si 5speed swap

Literally, all you need is an 89-91 Si transmission (not 88). You can re-use everything else from the STD.

Pro tip: If you car has its stock STD engine (d15b1), swapping the camshaft and ECU from...

If it were that easy, it would have been done a million times already and be the preferred method. If you want to use your Si engine harness in the DX, you must also swap the entire under-dash wiring...

Re: black grease on fire wall

The boots don't have to be damaged for grease to get thrown out of them. I've had grease come out the ends of the boots before... usually, the big ends, not where they wrap around the shafts.

Re: Gas pedal stopped working while driving, won't start now

Pull the distributor cap and confirm that the rotor is still secured. Their set screw can come loose. This is a *somewhat* common problem and has stranded me before.

Re: baby is sick sick sick

Malfunctioning IACV will cause a high or fluctuating idle. It won't cause it to sputter to a stop and die.

A brand new ignition switch is like $30 from rockauto.com, It takes maybe half an hour to...

You drained your battery. You also have fouled plugs. Remove them, clean them off, reinstall.

Re: Extremly high idle b16a

Clean out or replace the idle air control valve (IACV). Also make sure there are no vacuum leaks.
