    2017 Honda Civic (with the 1.5T Motor) unusual amounts of smoke coming out of the exhaust on startup

    By siraje

    Hey everyone, so for some context, this is my 2017 honda civic touring with the 1.5T motor in it, my question is, is this something I need to be concerned about? I’ve heard horror stories about head gaskets going out on these and seeing the unusual amount of smoke pour out on startup has me kind of worried. Here’s some information about the car: - Got the car at 70k miles (previous owner took care of it, has service records from honda) - Did oil changes every 5k miles up until I hit the 90k... 2017 Honda Civic (with the 1.5T Motor) unusual amounts of smoke coming out of the exhaust on startup

    CX-5 75K Mile Service…What should be done?

    By Cubanrummy

    We have a scheduled appointment for our 2018 CX-5 Touring NA next week w/the local MAZDA dealer for the 75K mile service (actually gonna be @ around 77.5K). The 4 spark plugs are due for replacement....but will the "service advisor" try to sell us the 4 tube-type ignition coils? Or should those be changed-out too? We've also decided after much research (including this forum), to ask for the drain & fill only transmission service (no pan drop or filter change) with the... Read more

    Route 66 Road Trip

    By Toons3

    Has anyone driven the entire length of Route 66 in their Lucid Air? My wife and I are planning a road trip from NYC to Chicago, then onto Route 66 all the way to Santa Monica Pier. After that, we’ll head back east to Tucson, AZ, and then drop off the car at a transport company and fly home. Any tips for our trip?

    Need advice on solid roller lifters for my 540cui build. The cam will probably be from bullit and has 0.454 lobe lift and 260 duration at 50. Pac 1225 springs This Indy Maxx block has lifter oiling drilled by Indy and no lifter bore bushings. Looking for 0.8 or bigger wheel solid lifters with pushrod oiling and pin oiling. Anyone has real life experience which lifters to stay away from, dont want to spend money on lifters that will uncover the holes and cause low oil pressure. Read somewhere... Read more

    Babbling sound from A/C

    By Torres75

    I have a 2020 Honda Civic 1,5 VTEC, which is often giving a babbling sound from the A/C system. Recently I had the A/C in for maintenance and refill, because of that. The measured amount of drained refrigerant was 280 grams, and it was refilled with 400 grams. However, after a few weeks, it is already babbling/”talking” again, even worse than before. I guess that the mechanic shop has pressure tested the A/C system before just adding refrigerant. From some people I have heard that some... Babbling sound from A/C

    alternative to sand blasting

    By 3_puppies

    I was at a get together at one of Esther's friends and the guy who is a hotrod builder was showing me his shop. He recently got a laser type device and it removes all impurities from metal It just vaporizes it, rust, paint, grime it just removes it all. I asked if it left a pile of ash, he said not really, it can stick tho. he showed me a cast iron fry pan where he did half of it and it was night and day difference. he said it will remove paint from a beer can the one he has runs on 220V

    By GoneShawn

    assembling a magnum block with trick flow heads and a custom hydraulic roller cam by Jones going in a 65 barracuda.. Sounds basic until I want to run a double roller timing set. and I dont think a tensioner makes any sense, Id rather get a quality timing chain, just like most ever other performance engine out there. So Now I hearing a double roller wont fit unless I use a double gasket? I have to cut the wings off the thrust plate. Could someone guide me throught the what it takes to get an... Read more

    72 Dart Swinger 3.6L Pentastar +T5

    By myduster360

    I picked up this Swinger(318/auto) roller a few months ago down in Southern Mo. It was exactly what I was looking for. New 1/4 panels, floors and paint & ready to be reassembled the way I wanted. Plus at just $2500 I couldn't pass it up The interior is bare but I have most all the pieces as well as a console. All of it is unfortunately Green. I'll be switching it all over to Black. So my initial choice for a drivetrain was a 5.7 Hemi and TKO. But more and more I started to lean... Read more

    1971 Duster Classic Auto Air

    By Hotdogs

    I am looking for measurements from a non ac car for the two mounting points on firewall that Classic Auto Air heater box bolts to the firewall. My car was an ac car so mounting locations for heater box were different. I know that the non ac car the fan hole was smaller on the firewall but I have that figured out. Thanks for any help. I have attached the photo from the instructions for reference.

    Premium Audio System DSP Analysis and DSP Flat Solution

    By moro

    I have spent quite a bit of time tinkering with my head unit attempting to figure out how to obtain a "DSP Flat", or at least the closest thing to it for those of us with the Premium Audio system. After re-reading through @SCOPESYS excellent write up, 2018 Premium Audio System , a few pieces started to fall into place. If you have not read his posts I highly recommend it. The external...

    SBM 440-W9

    By NC Engine Builder

    So since I have a habit of posting long, drawn out engine builds, I figured yall might like a peak at the next race engine project. This one is a 440 small block, with W9 heads. Starting with this pile of used junk, we will see what I can do with it. The details are a well used R3, 9.200 deck, 48° block, a set of Brett Miller prepared W9 heads, a bryant billet crankshaft and a jesel belt cam drive setup. Will be "interesting"
