so latly i been notice a strong smell coming from the heater vent, and once i had the time to open my hood i notice wet oil right beneath the vtec solonoid,
before it wasnt leaking bad and i went ahead and replace valve cover gasket.
and order the gasket for the solonoid, and today i had some spare time to work on it and heres my results

this is camera phone ftl pic


milage


on jack stand left side so i can drain out the oil since it's time and winter is here


oil drain


so i went ahead and took it apart and damn that gasket was done and hard to take out


heres the pieces


finaly the stubborn parts came off and cam cap snap in half when i try to pry it out with a flat head


at this time of season in new england it does get cold lucky i went to home depot and refill my tank


new parts will be put on tomarrow since my gf came over and wanted to go shopping, i will be cleaning up the mess tomarrow and put in fresh oil and filter

Sweet ride. Red calipers are a nice touch. So are the blacked headlights. Mine are too. They blend real good with black. You get the windows tinted it'll look even sleeker.

Keep us updated. The pics are great. Take more if you can. lol

yes the windows are tinted i'll take a pic tomarrow when i clean up the car so it can look better
the head light i painted myself
it looks black but it has a hint of midnight blue
it really shows on a cloudy day but after that it looks black

but thanks

clean out inside and went for a wheel alignment
since i replace steering rack and pinion.

so here is wat i left off last night
today was so cold even the heater couldnt keep up
freaking low 20 degrees


cam cap was very hard to put in
i had to use oil to help it go on


new gasket is a go

so i took out the seats and man wat a mess


i took out the seats so it gives me enough space to
tighten up the bolts thats connect the steering to the pinion
