SO, this is my excited post. I've been without my car for 8 months now and I miss it desperatley. I'm going to get at it tommorow but I'm a little scared about what I'm looking at here.

This is what I pulled out when I took the valve cover off:

I'm scared but I was so fucking happy to see my car again I was just jumping around it and singing and acting like a total idiot. I love it so much.

i would lose my fuckin mind if i went 8 months without a ride i think the longest i ever went was 3 months and that was because some jack ass ran a stop sign at 80 and had no ins.

good luck and enjoy

I was going nuts.
86hp and a 4 speed auto is a LOT different than 160hp and 5 speed. And an all round more fun/stylish car.

Who the fuck abreviates "valve"? Nice shreded timing belt, shouldnt be more than a weekend job, bent valves are no biggie if you bet a few. Maby you got lucky though.

its actually been 8 months? holy shit man, well hurry up and get that fuckin thing fixed! n11 is only a couple weeks away!

SiZ · #7 06-11-2005, 02:31 PM

AK! So, I took it all apart today.. Getting the tensioner belt off is a major PITA. Anyway, the water pump was leaking so I have to pick one of those up before I'll be able to find out if the valves are damaged.

ouchie, that sucks man!

SiZ · #9 06-11-2005, 08:31 PM

The really sucky part?! I can't fucking find a water pump that fits!!

I've looked at 97 Del Sol VTEC, 99 SiR, I went to Honda and we looked at every single water pump he had (12 of them!), 91 Teg, 91 Civic. I'm fresh out of ideas and up shit creek without a paddle.

a b18a1 one wont work??? if it does come get mine, free of charge

SiZ · #13 06-12-2005, 12:35 PM

Doesn't work.

Still to look at: GSR, both the 1.8 and the 1.7.. Problem is they are extremely hard to find.
And I need it SOOON!

SilentChamber isnt there something more important here to talk about then what i abreviate . like what the thread is about . i know your not that much of a ass so why bring it up and point it out?

its always best to replace the waterpump when doing a timing belt anyway since you are in there already. wont a water pump from a 00 si work?
