Also to bear in mind mines done 120k, this 1.8 only done 56k

That's good then lol don't worry I wasn't calling it **** myself .. just warding off those that will just go on about how I should get a dohc in there I've had a 2.5 6 banger from bm before it was alright but I think the main let down there was the sheer weight of the car where the accord...

Blong sorry I have no imagery for you, but if you look at this one (and it hasn't sold by the time you look at it..) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HONDA-ACCORD-2-0-16V-AUTO-COMPLETE-ENGINE-WITH-ANCILLARIES-ENGINE-CODE-F20B6-/291416770483?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item43d9cb07b3 the 5th picture...

I'm looking to buy a replacement F20B6 to take my time over rebuilding properly anyone got anything for sale, or know anyone that has? somewhere near London would be preferable if anyone has any relevant advise re: what internals are impossible to get hold of, or where a little more money...

or do I mean the A/C pump.. can't remember which one the tension bolt is on now.. will be obvious when you open the bonnet and look lol

update, I re-tensioned the belt and its been silent ever since :) point to note, if you have air con, the pipes get right in the way of that bolt underneath the alternator that you use to tighten it fortunately, you don't need mega tightness on it, it seems enough to lift the alternator by...

is it possible that the whole lock barrel is just turning round and not actually unlocking, if you see what I mean not sure if this will help at all but underneath that handle it is just a metal cable like a bike brake cable, any chance of taking it apart a bit and tugging the cable with a pair...

yeah in hindsight should have cut less off the back side and maybe flattened two sides so I could get grips on there, that would have made more sense wouldn't it.. lesson learnt I guess also will think of the blowtorch next time .. damn it. got one as well just didn't enter my mind .. don't...

Thought I'd put this under faults, because that's where people will look if they need to do theirs,, (mods, feel free to move it, apologies in advance) did my front drop links yesterday and it was a bit of a palava so I thought Id give a bit of a heads up to anyone about to do theirs firstly...

now that's interesting I'll have to have a look around more and check that, there is a sort of greasy film everywhere (did the drop links yesterday so had a good look around then) but I know I have two split gaiters, passenger side steering rack and driver side drive shaft ('box end.) so I was...

Ok Cheers ill give that a go. Will get someone to drive along behind me :)

If a moderator spots this can they change topic ***le please and remove misleading bit in brackets. Cheers

Actually I've checked again and I might be slightly exaggerating.. In 1 month I've gone from in between the two dots on the dipstick to just below the bottom dot So now the question is has anyone got any idea what sort of volume that is and is that normal. Most other cars I've owned it just...

not particularly, no, looks pretty much completely white whenever I've seen it. is there some other way of checking that, like letting it collect on a mirror or something and testing it in some way? edit.. not mirror necessarily . must be thinking of how to check if someone is breathing haha

nearly 120k mileage belts all changed when bought 6 months ago that is literally all I know at this point

as above, really.. losing oil, done nearly the whole lot in about a month.. I've heard said that these cars do burn oil a bit, but not that much, surely? going on the almost non-existant information I've given, can you advise where it's going (lol) I dunno, thinking head gasket seems ok, as no...

from other post. been asked if I have changed solenoid yet, answer was no, I questioned whether or not a load of Oil will leak out when I take it off. just so Im prepared with some way of catching it :) another point to add Oil level looks ok on casual inspection Finally, sort of forgot about...

not yet, no, been meaning to ask (maybe a dumb question haha) when I take that off, will a load of oil leak out, or is that a dry part of the system, as it were?
