Re: Send drop spring photos and details on EK Hatch

Man, I've only clicked a few links since checking back on this particular forum and people are such douchers on here.

98 Civic DX Coupe 5 speed 150k miles - Stock

Car is stock except for a few things when I picked up the car.

Re: 99-00 Climate Control Bulbs HOW TO FINALLY!!

Re: 95 DX D15B7 Head Replacement / Timing Belt

Scroll up. Yes. I have gone through about an entire can spraying every hose, intake mounting points, everything. I've doused the motor bay at this point with carb cleaner, never skips a beat.

Re: 95 DX D15B7 Head Replacement / Timing Belt

Just kidding. It still very much has an idling issue. I have no idea what the hell it could be at this point... Starting it to warm it up, it's alright. When I get to work, 15-20 minutes later, every...

Re: 95 Civic Radio Out Along With...

Got seemingly everything working inside the car again, possibly even the dome light.

Re: 95 Civic Radio Out Along With...

Appreciate the response. Working on getting under the dash to look at wires and fuses. Unfortunately I have the dreaded, lower strut bolt stuck in the control arm on the rear of my GF's 98 DX Coupe....

Re: 97 Civic - wont pass inspection because it does not have a cat

I had a 96 hatch with a B series swap in it. Used a Random Technologies cat (was after the manifold, like most normal setups). Not sure why it would be any different for this application. It's...

Re: 95 Civic Radio Out Along With...

I've actually never had a working dome light. When I got the car almost 3 years ago, it flickered and burnt out. I tried new bulbs, but it was never terribly important, so I never cared. :shrug:

Re: 95 Civic Radio Out Along With...

I'll try to be more clear I guess?

*When you put the key in the ignition but do NOT turn the key ON and the door is open, it will chime. We all love this noise.

Re: 95 DX D15B7 Head Replacement / Timing Belt

Changing out the IACV seems to have steadied out the idling issue for the most part. The car has always had a random fluttering idle since the day I bought it. It would last a few seconds and then...

Re: 95 DX D15B7 Head Replacement / Timing Belt

So I believe we have the issue narrowed down to the IAVC.

When the engine is running, I can put my finger over the IACV and FITV, car dies.

The timing lines up every single time we check it,...

Re: 95 DX D15B7 Head Replacement / Timing Belt

Took throttle body off and the gasket was in fact torn. It was RTV'd to the IM and sat there when I pulled the TB off, torn :(

"*We sprayed both manifold gaskets with carb / choke cleaner, TB gasket, every hose connection we could see."

Post 95 DX D15B7 Head Replacement / Timing Belt

Hey folks. Quick history (don't care? Skip to the 2 months part). So I've had this car for about 2.5 years now. I bought it for almost nothing because it ran. I blew up my WRX, sat waiting for work...
