Hi guys I might have to remove the head to enable me to extract a nasty little sticky injector. Holdcroft want £420+ just for the head gasket set so I have been looking at head gasket sets online. They seem to be a more reasonable price. I am informed that the head gasket comes in five...

Thanks Fahad

Hi Does anyone know where the engine number/code is stamped on the engine? Many thanks

Hi TJ Got me thinking. Took all the injector solenoids of and made absolutely sure that the internal components including " the little speck of dust" ball bearing and shim were seated correctly. So,so fiddly. I literally needed to work with a magnifying glass I am surprised that Bosch have...

Hi T J You are probably right. From your experience, I despite thinking I ***embled them correctly the injectors probably are the problem although I have ***embled them as per a Bosch schematic including the little ball bearing and shim. I might end up cutting my losses and renewing them if I...

Hi Well - suitably prepared I started the job on Friday. Got everything disconnected and then left the injectors to soak up the releasing oil overnight Got started on the injectors next day and even with a injector removal slider they would not budge at all apart from one I had replaced a...

Hi T.J. Thanks for that info. You have been very helpful. Must say, I have attempted many auto jobs over the years but this one seems to have me concerned We shall see?? Cheers

I've organised the job for next week. Got all the tools I need etc. Went and looked at a trolley hoist today but if I use it, I will not be able to get under the car to remove the sump to do the oil pump chain. The one I looked at was a Draper EC1000 1 ton and the legs are going to get in the...

Hi TrolleyJack Thanks for the info on how to access the manual contents but I might be a bit silly here, I still don't know where to go to access the actual manual. You don't seem to have told me. Again, thanks for all your help. Regard

Hi again Trolleyjack - you have certainly given me a lot to think about. It seem inconceivable that such a straight forward job should be made into a nightmare by bad design/build flaws. When you say ""The guide I used was printed from the ESM , look for REPLACE CAM TIMING CHAIN"" -...

Hi Trollyjack Many thanks for your reply. Much appreciated. Sounds as if you changed yours just in time!! I have read that some remove the injectors and some don't. Having not started the job yet I can't understand why it is necessary to remove the injectors. Some don't, I understand...

Hi Have read a lot about doing the job and having done so, I am not looking forward to doing the job myself!! Haven't read much about the actual bits themselves. Have seen this kit. Supposed to be genuine Honda Has anyone used it and if so is it any good...

You've got that right Cliffordski Thanks for the info.

Hi Guys I think I have been lucky so far from reading this thread. My engine has just gone over 200K and have just started to get (I think) a noisy chain etc. I have changed the oil and filter every 6K from new so perhaps that has helped!! Anyway it is time to do the job. Goodluckmonkey...

Hi Jan Accord Thanks for your reply. I wish it were that easy, I was using a 2.5Kg club hammer but still no movement. Guess I'll eat some more weetabix and give it another go at the weekend Cheers

OK Guys I know I have touched on this before in another thread but at the weekend I decided the time had come to replace the two front wheel bearings and as far as I can see, pushing them out and in seems straight forward with the kit I purchased. If you have done this job then you probably...

Not a great deal Bounder but as they say, every bit helps but I don't want to end up a couple of years down the line doing it again. Has anyone done this before and if so what bearing removal kit did you use I thought I would get one to save a lot of frustration. There are plenty of...

Hi Bounder Thanks for the reply. That's something to think about then.
