I have to put Antifreeze in my car almost everyday. I havent been driving it for about 2 weeks. I was wondering if anybody knew what the prob might be? I think it might my head gasket? If anyone thinks that this might be the prob please respond. Or any other probs yoiu might think iy may be. There are no leaks in the cooling system so I think its my head gasket.

 

well could be a head gasket. but before you go ripping things apart, take it to a shopp and have your coolant system leakdown tested. that should tell you what your problem is.

 

Thanks for the quick response. I have already bought a headgasket. I know that if I do change the head gasket it would run better. I never replaced it when I did the ZC swap. Also another thing after driving it for about 30 mins it starts to smell like its burning oil. Do you think my piston rings are fried?

 

Leakdown test.

Rings might be done too.

 

About how much does a leakdown test usually run.? I have a certain shop I got to that specializes in hondas and acuras. The place is called "ZC Speed" you can also go online to "zcspeed.com" and check out some of their ****. I put a D16 ZC motor into my 99 LX. Mother ****** would eat any stock DOHC non v-tec and kill any supped up D series motors that arent force injected. I would say that it has about 175 Hp.

Why not contact them and see what a leakdown costs?

I would say that you're delusional.

 

Why do you say that. I am not guaranteeing that it has 175 hp. I havent taken it to a dyno or anything but I am not dillusional on what it does. I will eat non v-tec DOHC's and any D series that arent force injected. But back to the main reason I posted this message. Any ideas on what my prob might be.

*** dyno!

 

What the hell is *** dyno? You got me fucked up. I know that when I bought the motor it had 140 hp stock. I have DC 4-1 header with 2 1/2 inch catback exhaust, AEM Tru Cold Air Intake, Spoon Chipped ECU with 8200 Redline, B&M short trow shifter, Stage 2 clutch, and a Spoon cam. Now tell me that is not close to 175 hp?

 

140 to the flywheel maybe

Hold up folks, we have a bullshitter here.

*** dyno + ricer math = 175hp Spoon D16 ftw!

 

I don't understand why people sweat Spoon. They don't design their parts to make assloads of power.
