Cold Air Intake help
Hey guys, i just got a 93 honda civic sports edition and a jdm market cold air intake for it, i'm kinda confused, i put the tube on the throttlebody, and added oil 4 quaters of oil threw the little hole but it split into the filter.. now the filter is all black and when i try to start the car it just makes a werid nose and engine starts to smoke, am i doing this right... ?

Re: Cold Air Intake help (lazie)
and four quarts too....danm that thing must have so much in it. take all the piping off and clean out all the oil. wash that filter out before putting it back on. You only want air going through this which is why you have that filter

Re: Cold Air Intake help (.ken)
err.. well i called a shop and asked how much it would be to install it, and they put this guy on the line, he told be the tube connects to the throttlebody, and i know know its on the throttlebody cause i can rev the engine with the cable thing. He said add 5w30, i even wrote it down, you pour it inside the intake tube, it makes more horsepwoer that way.....
i just got screwed huh?

If he comes back to post, its gotta be fake. If its real, we just made this guy feel like the biggest idiot in the world, then I doubt he'll post again.

Oh lord. I thought this had to be a troll.
I bet the guy told him to oil the filter element; or maybe add oil to the crankase, and he just fubared the whole thing up.
EDIT: I would seriously come and help you out with this, just because... well, this I gotta see I suppose.

Re: Cold Air Intake help (AutoXer)
yea, there is no way that this is real, first of all, like some1 else said, new oil isnt black, and if he has enough of a mechanical ability to put the intake on, then he probably would know that thats not where to put oil, probably

Re: Cold Air Intake help (ekhatchback2)
WOW...thats pretty sad there if its all for the real real. But I doubt it, my little sister can figure out were to put oil and were not to put it. Hey man put oil stabilizer in your gas tank, adds easy 30 horses.
