Default Entering the Honda World

Hello Honda-Tech, I am entering the Honda world at 17 years old. I have a friend who is selling me a 1986 Honda CR-X HF with a D15. Any thoughts or tips on what I should do to my CR-X?

Back away very slowly. Then turn around. Start Running, run far away boy. Run until your feet are bleeding and you pass out from dehydration.

Thanks for all your support guys. I am REALLY excited. I have a 1984 Ford F-250. I know carburated engines but I decided to learn fuel injection. Figured this would be a good way to learn.

I don't think you know a lot about carbureted cars because you couldn't tell that the 86 CRX IS CARBURATED... it’s a 3 barrel if you couldn't tell...

Do motor work first before anything, check to see if the motor is running good before doing anything else.
