Hello all!
Yup, another prelude owner looking for nuther site(since hondaprelude.com) was KIA. I'll gets some pics and stuff added on later when I get the ride outta the shop. Here's the situation. Coming home from work last week down the interstate and bang!(rattle,rattle, kerplunk!), felt like I ran over a turtle or something. All lights come on and then. . . nothing. Car dies and no restart. Coasted to a stop in middle of slow lane(they were doing construction and concrete walls on both sides w/ absolutely no emergency lane). Called the wrecker and waited. Kept looking in the rear view and noticed 1) It was getting dark 2) people were taking evasive actions to avoid my parked car in the middle of road 3) airbags don't work when hit from behind, so I bailed out. Hopped over the wall and started jogging back down the road a bit attempting to flag passersby to slow down, but too late. Apparently one wasn't paying that close attention and locked 'em up, swerved to miss my car and got rear ended by a county jailer official who also side swiped the lude. Can you say "pileup"? Traffic is at a stand still and I'm now running from car to car checking on all that's involved. Long story short. . . What I ran over was the harmonic balancer and a couple of belts. Turns out that the Crank pulley(the one the timing belt rides on) sheered the key and spun on the crank. . . jumped time, bent valves, you know the rest. Insurance covering the body damage, but your's truly covering the engine repair. Who wants to sell me a H23a? I live in Bowling Green, KY and am in need of a Si motor that runs good. I'm hoping a few of you have done the h22 swap and have a good replacement for my little baby that you would be willing to part with for practically nothing(or a reasonable price) I would be willing to drive somewhat to pick up or pay for crating and shipping. Thanks in advance!
