Wrenching Your EF
Found out head gasket crapped out
Took replacment head to the shop had a valve job
Installed that fixed the rear main seal
Installed all new heater core and radiator hoses
Fresh oil change and mtf
Smashed up the tps while doing these things threw a code seven
New ones on its way sorta excited to be driving it again

I bought one. Been out of the honda/car game for awhile. Haven't had a crx in 10+ years and decided to get a new project.
91' si and and wait to start on it.

Nice pick up!

CRXCommunity is a good site for info IF you need it. I imagine it will be like riding a bike now that you returned to the game.
I had one red ('90) and two black ('90 and '91).Do you still have drums in back? Never understood how the CRX received rear disc brakes and they left the hatchback with drums.

No, I have discs out back and Wilwood up front.
Knocked out new plugs and wires today. Discovered the valve cover gasket is shot so I'll pick that up tomorrow from Honda. (it's the spark plug tube grommets)
Day time picture of the valve cover I painted. Also, replaced the gasket and spark plug tube seals.

Great pic!
Oh cool, that looks like fun!
The CRX is down. Igniter failed on me. Waiting for parts to arrive in the middle to late week next week. I have my fall back distributor on at the moment, but I would not trust it for any serious trip or long distance trip.
