The bracket on the original strut is removable, but the problem is not all B-part struts are compatible with that bracket. I had the same issue and removed the bracket (hammer it off, even the TEIN shockabsorbers webpage still has the pics and all how to do it -...

IF anyone else is reading this thread. When removing injectors, never do it when engine is cold and use ample amount of somekind of injector loosening spay/solvent. For my experience start spraying that atleast one day ahead. And hot engine makes it easy job - if not worm engine...it seems...

Sorry for digging up the old thread, but did you guys ever solved the issue or did you give up? I would like to add here, that startup blue smoke might be because of bad glow plug.

but it seems 8gen injector have rubber O-Rings on them....so the spray has little effect if any there. Then again, those O-rings might leak :D and still spary works....won't hurt to spray it :)

So i have done it 3 times now, in two different accords. First tip, never ever try to do it while the engine is cold, always as warm as possible! Secondly, try to get an hold of injector loosening spray, i used: "MA PROFESSIONAL - Injector Loosener With PTFE" but there is Liqui Moly Pro-Line...

fair enough. Point taken.

Care to explain why not? As i understand, coding will tell to ecu exactly what amount of fuel particular injector lets fuel through - hence the calibration number. But you might be right, most likely it is still a bad injector issue there. My two n22a1’s smoked as well while accelerating and...

usually O-ring for the high-pressure fuel pump may be the issue.

Hi there, maybe a stupid one, but you never mentioned that you recode the injectors to ECU. Did you do it after changing the injectors? If you didn't, there's your problem. For many this is common knowledge, but for some it is not.

You might or might not see any air bubbles in the reservoir. If the high pressure hose seems to be dry then first thing i would do is changing the high pressure hose o-ring going into power steering pump, that is the most likely candidate. BUT! Use the factory o-ring! Also see this thread...

Hi there, one of the guys in this forum (i can not find the thread anywhere) had similar issues, and he went straight to changing the crankshaft position sensor and fixed the problem. It is not common (i think) for those sensors to fail (correct me if i'm wrong).

Few questions: Are you running factory wheel & tyre sizes`? Have you checked the high pressure hose between the steering rack and pump. Check for leaks, even the smallest signs of moisture can be a sign that power steering system gets air into the system. If so, all kinds of wierd things start...

yeah, i realised it that it was stupid idea :D - thank you for schooling me :)

Radiator. Mostly for peace of mind and longevity reasons. Logic being that Honda did beef up the TYPE-S 180hp engines radiator (8gen) so it would not hurt to have bigger rad if it is remapped and you have +30 deg Celsius outside and hauling +600kg trailer for a long drive. So that is my reason :)
