ok, I dont have much info...I was driving, and then i turn my music down, as im pulling into friends drive, i hear a strange noise comming from my car, a rattle squeal, hard to describe. I go in for 10 mins, go to leave to drive home, so I can hopefully find wtf is up with my car, I was going to drive home, cause I figured it could have been making the noise the whole way to my friends, since my music was up i couldnt hear it anyway.

so I drive maybe, 2-3 blocks listening to the sound, rpm related for sure, then it just dies, i was babeing it the 3 blocks, then i feel something break, not violently but nonetheless something broke, then it died at the same time i felt something give i was in 2nd gear at about 1.5k-2k. I pull over, and i give it a crank, knowing i HAVE to get to work soon...wont start, just cranks, i can tell it will nto start...now it sits on the side of the road...


So now, wtf is it, timing belt!??!

I checked what i could for it being dark, and me only having a lighter, i could see all visible belts r ok, now if it is my T belt, i know when these break they can damage valves? what are my chances my motor is still ok...considering my rpms were quite low when whatever happenned happened.

When I go back later, what are some easy to check things...?

What should I look for?

What should I tell my mechanics??

Any advise really woudl be great

uhh yea stock d15z1 186k...if it matters.

P.S. I have a very dieing waterpump, could that breaking cause this? It has been leaking for over a year, and has gotten worse, and has started to do the infamouse dead waterpump rattle...just trying to give as much info as I can.

Thnc for any advice!

 

bump

 

I had something similar with mine 95 EX Coupe, if the oil light flickers its the oil pump and I still drove it like that and spun a rod bearing. I am rebuilding my car now. Take it to a mechanic shop before you do serious damage.

 

God I hope its not oil related....I had checked it 1-2 days prior, and never had oil problems befor...expletive, I dont even have a ride to get to my car to even check the oil!!

This week has sucked...seriously.

 

does it crank over a little easier than normal.

 

yes...

bad?

 

most likely timing belt, water pump bearing probably seized and threw the belt, hence the breaking sound. take the oil cap off, have someone crank it, watch the rockers, if they dont move, broke the belt.

 

Awesome bro, that actually puts me at ease a lil bit...gives me something to check.

Seriosuly thank you!

 

no problem, w/ the rpm's that low theres a SLIGHT chance you didnt hurt anything, but i doubt it.

 

oh great...

Good thing the motor is worth 200$...IF that, lol!

 

haha, if that, in good condition they arent worth $200, just get a D15b $600 shipped to your door.

 

Yeah sorry man, I don't see a happy ending for that engine if you take it apart.

Yea, I may end up doing this...just i cant do the swap : /

Im sure this is an easy question, but if I were to jump on the d15b from hmotors, what all would I need to complete this swap http://www.hmotorsonline.com/s...30019

 

nothing else, except a chipped ecu, P28 or P28.

 

swapping is the easiest thing to do, my first swap i did about 5 mos ago was an h22 into my ex coupe...you will be alright swapping in another d series into your car.

 

Yea Ive heard some ppl can do a D series in a lunchbreak : / not me

What about the wire harnesses? Cause I know my o2 is a 5 wire, and im sure d15b is a 4...

Is there a page with a lot of this info alrdy, tried search didnt turn up much...

or Where can I find some info on how to rewire it to 4

https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1607567 Found this link, kidna helpful.

Really appreciate all the help, I knwo a lot of this has been coverd on H-T over and voer again, but I have searched, and still am looking.

 

https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=635782- ITR Swap into 92-95 VX

all the o2 wiring stuff is the same. if you use a chipped ecu you can get by w/out all that wiring nonsense.

 

Man thnc u...I should be done for now...I got a lot of bullshit to go through, on my day off.



Gracias amigos!

dont consider it bullshit, consider it a nice way to upgrade performance, just to give you an idea, broke a d16z6 axle, swapped in an h22, spun the h22 bearing, doing a 500-600whp build up with the h2b...upgrades are what the games about.

yeah ive been down that bullshit kinda road, my car is a daily driver as well. Im not saying you have to go to such an extreme...but the ease of a d series swap is straightforward.
