Re: I need help with an A/C job

Thank you for the very detailed explanation. I will follow your advise. When you say flush lines hoses, do you mean with water? or is there a special liquid to clean them?

Re: I need help with an A/C job

I'm guessing about 15oz since I can feel a bit left in the can. So my drier should be the cause of the high pressure in the low side? the refrigerant is not too bad since it's about $15, but I feel a...

Re: I need help with an A/C job

I have a vacuum and one of those manifolds with a gauge for each side and 3 hose connections at the bottom. I don't have what I would need to take the refrigerant out and store it. I see that the...

Re: I need help with an A/C job

The fan was kicking in and I could feel the change in the engine when the compressor would kick in. The only thing I replaced was the compressor. Do you think the high pressure on the low side could...

I need help with an A/C job

I have a 1994 honda civic ex with a 1.6 engine. The A/C compressor it came with had a huge hole so I replaced it. I vacuumed the empty system for about half an hour and then closed the gauges in the...

AC compressor compatability

I have a 1994 civic EX with a d16z6, but the AC compressor has a leak so I'm going to have to replace it. I came across a d16y8 from a friend and thought that might be compatible. Before even trying...

d16z6 compression question

I just tested the compression on my engine while it was warm and cylinders 1 through 3 were at 135 psi and the 4th was at 127 psi. I've read some post saying that's ok and some saying that it is too...

Re: Help with exhaust manifold

So I just got a used one locally since I need to pass this before the month ends. I'm still having the same issue with too much HC. I just got new spark plugs and I've double checked the gaps on...

Re: Help with exhaust manifold

Are those ebay headers reliable? Have you used them? I was thinking about getting a used stock one from a salvag Yard

Re: Help with exhaust manifold

Right my HC(ppm) at idle is too high so I'm suspecting the crack on the manifold to be the culprit. I know that ratchet was pretty cheap and too small for that anyways. I don't think that heating the...

Help with exhaust manifold

I just failed my emissions test on my 94 civic EX. As I was inspecting the car I've found a very small crack right by the O2 sensor on my exhaust manifold. I wanted to remove the manifold to replace...

Thank you every one for your responses. They were either informative or just fun to read. For those who are curious (if any one is), I ended up getting NGK G-Power sparkplugs and a Turtle Wax...

Re: d16 aftermarket cam gears

Thanks for the useful info. I've decided to keep it stock though. I don't even go over 3000 rpm lol. So if I understand correctly advancing the timing helps with efficiency in the lower rpms right?...

Re: d16 aftermarket cam gears

I started reading about it, I wouldn't try it before I got more information about it. I'm actually seeing a lot of conflicting information online about the ign timing and MPGs.

Re: d16 aftermarket cam gears

Thanks for the advice. I have already removed my spare tire. I thought removing rotational mass would help like having a lightweight flywheel, I'm sure it wouldn't make as big of a difference as that...

how do you keep the muffler looking good?

I remember reading somewhere in here that if you rub some oil on the muffler it'll make it so it doesn't change color, is that true?
