Hello New Del Sol owner
just a quick hello. Picked up a 93 Del Sol today. It was a 2 owner traded in at the Honda dealer.
I've actually been driving Hondas Since my 79 Civic. Also had an 86 CRX, 89 Accord, and currently 2 CRV's (99 and 2000), DWs Pilot and now this one.
Needs a bit of work but the engine runs great. Even with 190K
When I drove it I could here a front bearing was bad. and a clicking CV joint.
The dealer provided the inspection report that showed, both of the above problems, along with leaking valve cover gasket, leaking dizzy o-ring (done those a few times) worn tie rod ends, leaking VTEC valve gasket, leaking roof seals.
So obviously the plan will be to go through the entire front and rear suspensions, fix all the gaskets, change the timing belt and water pump, and exterior belts. Every fluid and check and replace the motor mounts as needed.
The dealer was asking $2950 but we settled on $983.
