before spending the cash to replace the oil pump try a different fuel pump relay. they consistently take a **** leaving you with no fuel to the engine

 

Doesnt look like an RR to me, more like a new shock standing next to an old bent one.

Check main relay first.

 

OKay, will check the relay first as the concensus seems to be. And Fourthgen, you are correct, I didnt realize that until a second look. So I guess Blu is fixing the suspension for resale then?

 

yeah just replaced the shock. was going to sell the set for $200 but found out i could get a replacement strut for $100

 

damn i would have snagged them lol

im sorta looking for suspension now or at least struts

 

Good luck considering EF's don't use struts, they use shocks, struts are vital to keep suspension geometry.

 

you really do love swinging from my nuts dont you!

 

Don't be so nasty Geoff! Just correcting you fool!

 

lmao

 

winter sucks, I already miss driving the ef

 

Hey guys, quick question...

My dad's 89 sedan has had an IACV/EACV CEL for years now and today I got around to actually running wires directly from the sensor's plug to the ECU and the code did not go away. Anyone have any ideas as to what the cause is? Also, aren't the blinking lights supposed to do a long blink for 10 then continues with single, short blinks? His ECU is blinking short single blinks - 14. I think I have an extra PM5 ecu. Maybe I"ll swap it in and see what happens...

 

should be a steady 14 blink pause then 14 steady blinks. swap ecu then report back right quick.

 

I'm still driving the CRX. No snow yet.
I need to find a beater ASAP though....

 

Any suggestions for windshield wipers? I never had to worry about them in socal now I'm in wa winters coming soon

 

get a good brand of windshield wiper and use rain-x on the windshield

 

What's a good brand

 

Bosch

 

Got Matt's car running today. Have to button up a few little things and we should be ready to drive it around. It's been a year and 4 months since the last time we drove it.

Started out as an auto DPFI OBD0 car with power steering, cruise, and AC, now it's got a cable SI trans, D15B, converted to OBD-1, and a manual rack. Can't wait to go drive this thing!

 

YES

 

We both had goosebumps when it started to burp what sounded like some fuel getting ignited finally and then BAM it started right up and we both lost it haha. Adjusted the idle a bit, fixed some vac leaks and a small coolant leak and it ran like a champ. Felt soooooo good to get it started.

 

blah blah blah sell me your hatch


this made me lol

 

We were both laughing uncontrollably because it's been so long since that car has run! I can't wait to take it out and do some full throttle runs.

 

Nice^
