Re: Stock 92 Civic - Hard to start and bogging when revved

Re: Stock 92 Civic - Hard to start and bogging when revved

I read the thread and came in to say this same thing about maybe just putting some fresh gas in. My friend bought a 92 hatch that sat for a while (longer than seller admitted) and it died shortly...

Re: B20B Swap running lean

Thanks a lot for this as I was looking to do the same but it looks like I'll be ordering a narrow and a wideband.

Re: Radiator fan not working

Yeah what I think I'll do before I pull it out of the car is to let the engine warm up to where the fan should come on, pull the thermo fan plug and check for continuity on the posts of the switch,...

Re: Radiator fan not working

Correct, the thermo switch is threaded into the thermostat. It has a single 2 wire plug and the switch completes the circuit at temperature and allows current to flow from one wire to the other. This...

Re: Radiator fan not working

The coolant was bled following honda procedure as stated in my honda manual, and again as posted in the other thread.

Re: Radiator fan not working

Thanks for your reply and I notice that I did fail to mention that the car had a low idle before swapping the thermostat but I will bleed the coolant again, never hurts. I will check the temp sensor...

Re: Radiator fan not working

I'm going to install a temporary manual switch for the fans to see if the fans engaging will increase the RPM at dead stops when warm and then reply but I don't see that as a solid permanent solution.

Re: Radiator fan not working

I'm more worried about the low idle at stop lights/intersections etc. The plugs/wires/valve cover gasket are all brand new. Timing, to the best of my limited ability is correct. I do not have a no...

Re: 1st gen civic cvcc B18c1 turbo RYR Build

Looks great katch. Do you know if there were any stock bolt-in options for 4 wheel disc that are 26 spline, even if it would require changing the knuckles along with the upper and lower control arms?

Re: No significant decrease in white smoke after valve seals changed

I don't think I have any means to tell if the head gasket is 100% fine but I am worrying more about this engine and the "mechanic" who rebuilt it. Next time I get to the warehouse I will do another...

Re: Quarter Panel Rust Repair EH2 Issues

Sorry I don't think I can help but thank you for the website for the patch panels, I wasn't aware this was an option. I hope you get it figured out as I have a 92 hatch that needs this done as well.
