-distributor rotor
-oil pan gasket
-timing belt
-cam seal
-belt tensioner
-tensioner spring
-water pump
-thermostat

plugs and wires are fairly new
going to be also changing the radiator fluid

What other gaskets/parts do I need for the timing belt job???

Thanks

 

oil pump seal, rear main seal, cam seals, cam seal plug, valve cover gaskets, spark plug seals........

I would suggest getting Genuine Honda parts instead of others (Advance Auto, Autozone, etc.) Nothing beats original factory quality and reliability.

 

I'm definetly getting all OEM parts. Valve cover gasket was done recently so I'll reuse that, havent had issue's reusing those in the past.

 

why would he replace his rear main seal and oil pump seal for maintenance lol? thats just plain stupid. dont fix what isnt broken my friend.

 

dont re-use that cover gasket. even if you havnt had problems, they are cheap enough where you shouldnt have to.

replace the belt tensioner while your doing your timing belt! alot of timing belt failure is due to bad tensioners.

also whole your cover is off you should do a valve lash adjustment. and you should consider seafoaming the car.

* sorry double post.

 

sweet thanks for the advice guys....Im planning to seafoam actually this weekend before I do my oil change

Ill add the cam seals, tensioner and spring to my list of parts

We are up to $325 in parts
DIY and not paying for labor = sweeeet

 

Change tranny fluid (& filter if auto), 4whl alignment.

When you flush the radiator for new, I recommend using Prestone radiator flush. You essentially drain the coolant, fill with water and Prestone, drive it 30 minutes and reflush. You will be amazed of the crap that comes out of your cooling system.

 

tranny fluid ill change when I replace my axle since the boot is torn.

doesnt Prestone radiator flush hook up to your hose? which I heard is bad

 

What's stupid is not doing it?! I bet you have never changed a rear main seal before. Just because it's not "broken" doesnt' mean the OP can't replace them. Dumba55 people, I swear.

 

No. You simply pour it into the system.

-drain coolant
-fill with water and Prestone
-drive for 30 min.
-drain cleaner & water mix
-flush with a waterhose while car is idling & heater is on until you see clear water
-refill with coolant

Stuff works great. It also helps clean out those block passages.

id say check your ball joints and tie rod ends, also your motor mounts. and replace if necesary.

 

If you are going to be replacing the rear main seal. You might as well just replace the clutch while your at it. Your going to have to pull the tranny, remove the clutch, and the flywheel in order to get to that seal.

 

^^ exactly. Thats why maybe the other guy said not to do it. 1 **** leads to = another. Then you end up rebuilding the whole engine...LOL. Atleast thats what happened to me.

 

yea. you could get get a new engine too. if you were planning to do a swap you might as well do it now.
