Re: Tie rod/Alignment

No because the part can (and often will) still be a different length even though the number of threads is the same.

Re: Methods to stop coolant leak from water pump weep hole

Buy the water pump at least from the honda dealer. The aftermarket are crap. You don't want to re-do this. Use a proper torque wrench and torque the bolts to spec.

Re: 99 honda accord front end weaves and play in both front whhels

I had an upper ball joint (passenger) that moved like an inch. Easy to move with the wheel off the ground. Pretty alarming. Promptly replaced both upper arms and it drives like a new car.

Re: 95 accord overheating/ fan issue

I would do a block test and cooling system pressure test before spending any money on parts. Was the coolant low? Maybe you need a new radiator cap or put some clamps on the overflow tube.

Re: 1996 temp gauge rising

Grab your fan blade and see if the shaft wiggles (you may want to d/c the connector for safety). The shaft bushing on my fan was completely worn into an oval, slowing the fan speed enough to let the...

Re: Motor oil weight recommendation for 400k plus 1990 accord

Use the same weight oil recommended in the owners manual. Use synthetic. Leaks and overheating require repair not different oil.

Re: Replacing the rear wheel hub bearing??

I hook my click type torque wrench to my dial type wrench. If the one clicks when the other reads the correct value, I figure I'm good. Also, I'm pretty sure they recommend a light coating of oil on...
