I have a 2005 Honda Odyssey EX-L 3.5L V6 SOHC 24V with an interference engine.

My timing belt broke while driving about 20 miles per hour. As soon as it broke, the car turned off and I drifted...

Re: Does rack and pinion boot get packed with grease

I checked out another Autozone store...no good AND I checked out a Pep Boys store...no good. I also went to a Napa Auto Parts store and none in stock. Actually, I need to put this all together by...

Re: Does rack and pinion boot get packed with grease

Well, here in California, they just don't have that stuff at Autozone or O'Reilly. Autozone out here carries more grease products than O'Reilly's. I also checked the web sites of Autozone,...

Re: Does rack and pinion boot get packed with grease

Re: Does rack and pinion boot get packed with grease

So, do you think I should grease the actual rack and pinion (as seen in my photo with all the teeth)?

I am replacing the rack and pinion boot and the outer tie rod only. Neither the boot or the...

Re: Does rack and pinion boot get packed with grease

Okay, so what is the lubrication that currently resides therein? Is this from a previous packing...whoever put the rack and pinion boot on before? See pictures. Should I clean that rack and pinion...

Re: Does rack and pinion boot get packed with grease

Wait a minute...I thought the hose line that goes down to the rack and pinion boot via the little tab in the boot is for power steering fluid to lubricate the rack and pinion? Isn't that what the...

Re: Does rack and pinion boot get packed with grease

So packing it with some grease will not harm the rack and pinion? Its okay to mix in grease with power steering fluid? I really have no clue on this.

Does rack and pinion boot get packed with grease

Does the rack and pinion boot get packed with grease like the axle CV boot? Or do I just let the power steering fluid leak in through the hose line?

Also, my power steering does look...

Hermonic Balancer Wobbling

I am traversing on new territory (meaning I have not done this repair before). My problem is with my 1996 Honda Odyssey LX hermonic balancer (or crankshaft pulley). I first noticed a grinding noise...

Okay, my 1995 Honda Civic DV 1.5L non-vtec sat for 8 months while I was trying to figure out how to get the blasted thing going. Which I finally did. After a month of driving it, I get a check...

Re: Car will not start after new starter install

Problem solved! I watched numerous You Tube videos about testing electronic components. I did a voltage drop test, I checked continuity, I rechecked components, relays, etc. Nothing showed...

Re: Slow acceleration between gears

Ohh no...I very much will drain the transmission a couple of more times, to be on the safe side...but I don't want to "wake a sleeping giant" in terms of a transmission flush or a high pressure...

Re: Slow acceleration between gears

I agree too...very very bad advice! You are talking about a 1995 Honda Civic with 220,000 miles on it. 99% of everyone I have ever talked to has never recommended doing a transmission flush, as it...

Let me ask you this, when you say to drain my transmission a couple of more times, what is the process/procedure for doing this. Do I drain it when its hot, than refill and drive it for a day and...

I watched the video earlier and I think it is similar to what you are talking about.

I will drain and refill the transmission again.

That is a good idea! I think I might just do that. I will check the "Throttle Control Cable" and the "Torque Converter." In regards to the "TPS" (Throttle Position Sensor), what do you mean by if...

Re: Slow acceleration between gears

It does it in every gear! Although, when I get on the freeway and eventually getting up to 60-75 mph, the car runs good...without any issues. I also notice the problem always when I start up my car...

At first, I loosened tensioner, removed belt, adjusted cam just a little bit to get it to TDC, put belt back on, then rotate crank several rotations; however, the cam got off again...
