Re: A picture of my distributor spring, does this look rusty to you guys? (quick ques

The disty looks good. The rotor (replaced 8k miles ago) is questionable. The cap looks good except for where it made contact with the spring.

Luckily, I have a spare new cap and I could go down to...

Re: 93 honda civic hatch is bogging!

Make sure the bolts on the intake manifold are torqued to spec and also make sure there arent any leaks or ribbed hoses.

Also, double check timing

Aftermarket cats vs OEM

Any differences besides one is alot cheaper than the other?

Are they as efficient at lowering HCs?...
