Gave the Sol some much needed TLC

Shin-etsu'd the seals
Flushed PS w/ Honda PS fluid
Painted wiper arms
Cleaned the throttle body
Made a filler plate for that damn gap between the stereo and the center console

After frying the brain of my old clifford alarm jumping the car I managed to find someone in Ontario that had the same 90's alarm unused in the box. They sold it to me for 75 CAD plus shipping and we did COD so there very little risk for either of us.

Anyways, after plugging the brain back in with the neg battery cable off and the ignition in the on (II) position we (my wife and I) noticed the passenger side door didn't set off the alarm nor prevent the auto arming when the door was ajar.

Today I tested the door switch to see if I still had 12 Volts going to the switch and it did. Swapped out the door switch (1 screw and 3 minutes of work) and I now have a secure, alarmed car again.

75 bucks to not have to dig into the wiring and just plug a new brain in sure saved me a ton of head ache.

Ouch! That's a long time to struggle with an issue and get no where.

Best of luck!

I think I may have posted in here about changeing the fuel filter in my wife's 93 civic hatch.

Last night we did the gas trip and filled her up. Turns out her avg MPG is now 33 MPG instead of the 24 it typically was before the change.

I'm still skeptical but it seem just the fuel filter alone can have a dramatic impact on fuel economy.

And to think I just thought it was cuz it was an automatic....
