Default i want me some EF

okay, i really like the EF civic sedan circa 1991. looking for them in good condition and relatively decent miles (non 200k.. LULZ) is like a dime a dozen. also, i would like to know how is it to maintain them? is it a biatch to maintain them since they are pretty old and it's difficult to find parts?

anyone selling them around DC/MD/VA on a decent shape, lemme know brahs!!! LULZ

i would appreciate it.

Check out the for sale forums would be the best place to start for looking for one but it may take some time looking for one sub 200k miles.

EF's are known for bad main relays, ~20 year old wiring, lack of space under the hood if you are into the performance aspect, rear Lower Control Arm bolts usually break, it's old, unless it was taken VERY good care of, which most people that use them as beaters don't. Are the ones I can think off the top of my head. I know there are more.

They are not a pain to maintain, fortunatly alot of junkyards are littered with old EF's as almost everything except for a few things interchange between all of them.

If you are thinking of getting one it would probably be in your best interest to know how to work on them.

It doesn't have the same moderated presence like it used to. I think that's the problem.
