    DIY injector overhaul

    self priming is not the same as self bleeding; the pump in your tank will prime your fuel system when you turn on the ignition but it will not bleed air out of it. some air can be bled "naturally" through the return line, but if there is enough air in the system, and that air is in front of the...

    DIY injector overhaul

    tried the primer bulb? or does the 8th gen not have one? squirting diesel into the intake with a spray bottle while cranking may help and can skip the bleed process entirely but access may be a problem if all else fails you can get a buddy to help crank to build pressure and then you crack the...

    Ball joint press

    I left mine in. follow the wire up the knuckle and upper wishbone and you'll see a passthrough, two flatheads to pop it off and then follow the wire through and you'll find a plug to undo

    Rust

    where did you get your arches from? a mere year ago klokkerholm, van vezel and other suppliers could not source rear arches and oem was the only option, so I had to do pie cuts to an L profile plate and weld it all back together, I'm 90% happy with it, but I've recently bought two from a polish...

    Ball joint press

    do you have a compressor? pneumatic hammer/chisel did the trick for me, had the old one out and the new one in within a minute it is possible to get the knuckle into a shop press but it's a little unwieldy, and the pipe/cradle combination you have to jerry rig and/or fabricate would work just as...

    Accord 7th Gen brakes update: All OEM solutions

    the calipers are still available as refurbs or as dealership stock, autodoc and hella stock them, what you will struggle with is finding a bracket that supports a 300mm disc. for the RL brembos you will likely need a lower offset but spoke design/geometry is important as well, so there's no...

    Which aftermarket shock absorbers are best ?

    if you can afford the price of the original ones, you might as well upgrade to bilstein b6 shocks. but if the shocks fitted to your car right now are shot, then anything will be a fantastic upgrade shocks are generally very good at "dealing with" differences in weight on the platform they are...

    Original Diesel filter really worth buying ?

    ^what about diluting the diesel with your own additives like a white spirit and butoxyethanol blend? a little something to boost the cetane rating of your diesel? In winter, people here tend to use a product called west frost(norway special I'm afraid) but it's simply isopropyl alcohol to...

    Xtrons Double Din Install

    don't quote me on this but iirc it has to do with the reverse valve/heat pump function of the ac that ***ists the engine to reach operating temperature below 5 deg celcius someone mid to late last year linked to a post on an italian accord forum where one specific unit worked with dual...

    they have also been a bother for some of our customers in the past, particularly on 4motion 2k caddies, 3 different cars with bearings failing early, but on the other hand they've been fine on a number of other cars as well. bad qc or sensitive platform? who knows
