Rep Power: 0 Need Help - New Honda Owner
I recently had bought a 94' Honda eg lx for a good price and I know there's a few problems with it.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Problems I know of:
- Need new head & head gasket
- CV axle on driver side
- Master cylinder for brakes
- Power steering belt
- Headlight on passenger side doesn't work on low beam.
- Rear view mirror fell off & too a small portion of the windshield.
- minor wheel well rust.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is there an order i should replace these parts?
Should I just do an engine swap or rebuild the whole head?
What is the best place to get these parts? (Quality & low price if possible)
Thanks for any replies I get.

If the car runs then replace the brake parts and headlight first for safety.
keep some extra coolant with you for the head gasket.
then tackle the head gasket.
I have no idea what condition your engine is in. If you can keep it then just replace the head that will save time and money. If the engine has major issues obviously replace the engine/head.
Buy parts at the scrap yard for non safety related parts, and buy new parts from a parts store for things like brake equipment.
