Re: Head bolts wont torque down.

I mean... I hate to say it but I wouldn't even drive that thing for a few minutes man, especially if you were low on cash that one will come to cost way more in not even a month or so. Usually I'll...

Re: Temperature gauge different from scanner coolant temperature reading - 97 Civic

Well then, after running more tests I found that the sending unit works fine, at around 35-32 ohms the fan comes on, which is when the car is around 195-200F. A little bit hot but I think a flush and...

Re: Temperature gauge different from scanner coolant temperature reading - 97 Civic

Re: Temperature gauge different from scanner coolant temperature reading - 97 Civic

I finally got my multimeter in the mail today, and did some tests:

At dead cold it's around 180 ohms, I am not sure what "Low Engine Temp" exactly means (what degree range), but at around 70F (the...

Re: Temperature gauge different from scanner coolant temperature reading - 97 Civic

Re: Temperature gauge different from scanner coolant temperature reading - 97 Civic

Re: What are your thoughts on this bad alignment technique?

I believe the problem lies within my whole suspension, the inner tie rod is probably bent, but then again I can't see any bent parts and the mechanic even said it looked fine, but I should get it...
