Re: Simple radiator question

another question if I may, all my torque wrenches only go to 150 ft/lbs except for this dohickey my brother bought me, it tops out at 165, do I need to worry about it? Cranked it to 165 then tried to tweek it a tad more.

Re: Simple radiator question

That doohickey: Is it a strain gauge/torque/angle meter? Looks like it could be cool (speaking as a tool junkie)


Ok, updated info as per Honda Service News, October 2003
Crank pulley bolt: 148 foot-pounds.
That is all.

I think you have yours overtightened now.

It's alive

Got it all together yesterday around 5:30. Realized I forgot the injector clips.

A little piano wire and there they are.
Added a trans cooler.

and a little string adds a helping hand whilst getting the bumper cover off.

Filled it with distilled water and let it idle for 10 to 15min, then drained that and the oil and filter. All seems to be OK.
Can you tell where this bracket goes?

Don't believe it's mission critical but want to put it back in. Does fit in the trunk nicely.

Thanks for all the help
Rich
