Re: 93 civic driver wheel wobble

Sounds like a bent rim or bad tire. Try swapping the wheels around.

Re: Best tire size for lowered civic?

You ask what would be a good size to go with. Assuming stock rim width, 195/55/15 would be the answer.

Re: Honda CR-V 2003 front suspension

Re: Alternator Issues And Gas LIGHT

If you didn't replace your battery, it may have gone bad when your alternator went bad. A bad battery can cause the alternator to have to over work resulting in what your describing.

Re: Engine mis-firing, no compression.

Sounds like you need a new head or a complete rebuild. Not sure if it's common but a whole lot of stuff can start going wrong with any car at that kind of mileage.

Re: Replacing the Inner Tie Rod - 08 CR-V

You should check with them if the inner is loose or is it just seized to the outer. If it's loose, you should replace it but most cases you can still get it to specs. If it's seized to the outer than...

Two main reasons why your engine would overheat and don't blow hot air.

Re: eg won't start???

If you verified that you have spark and fuel along with correct timing, than next step would be to do a compression check.

Re: 2000 civic will click but not start

If you have power going to the starter and it just clicks, the starter is the problem.
There is nothing else in that line of circuitry that can be the problem.

Re: Squeaking noise when turning steering wheel

Ball joints.

They are not loose or you can't hear them make noise when you jack up the car and turn your wheel but they are probably your problem. Usually the upper but it could be the lower.

Re: Help with 93 Honda Civic - no start issue

If your engine doesn't turn, problems with starter or battery.
