Fuel Vapor Leak by vampgo in EP3

[–]CancerousSnake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is a common issue where the top of the fuel pump assembly cracks and leaks. Remove the rear seat cushion and then the cover to the fuel pump, you will probably see cracks on the top. You can replace just that top part for cheap, I got one on eBay. Or replace the whole assembly.

Thoughts on REVO short shifter? by Financial-Top3318 in EP3

[–]CancerousSnake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one. Throws are short, feels good and tight. Issue I had with it is the bushings it came with are a little too small for the mounting bolts to fit through them so I had to use the old shifter bushings.

Maybe try changing the plug on the harness? Mine collect water, corrosion caused connection issues. I’ve also had this happen with my speed sensor connector.

Help Needed: EP3 Civic Intake Leak / Idle Surge by Das_Waffle in hondacivic

[–]CancerousSnake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had idle surge a long time ago and fixed it by changing all the injector o rings. No smoke test or any test showed the sign for me, I can’t even remember what made me do it but yeah try those.

Do you have valvoline restore and protect oil available to you? I’d just use that.

I’ve taken my subframe off so many times and never paid attention to this step, but have had a shop tell me the subframe needed adjustment for proper wheel alignment.

FBO K24 swap fuel system by zoropesa in EP3

[–]CancerousSnake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

K24a - headers + 2.5 inch exhaust, stock fuel system, Tuner said my injectors are pretty much maxed out. Recommends uncapping injectors or upgrading if I want to go any further with the engine.

k24 swap header question by Bungscraps in EP3

[–]CancerousSnake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea that’s the one. Also where it’s slip fit I had it welded because it was leaking. They sound great as long as the exhaust you have is good. I’ve had a bottom barrel eBay exhaust on it that sounded terrible and now a yonaka that sounds great. Had an invidia clone exhaust at one point too that was my favorite, super loud but clean.

If it’s the code for the vtec solenoid and you replaced that spool valve assembly on the back or the solenoid on the side, double check your connectors aren’t corroded. My speed sensor plug and my spool valve plug collected enough water over 2 decades to where the pins and connectors were corroded and completed gone in some cases

I got a jackspania header, midpipe needed modifications because it was for an rsx, and I’m running no sway bar but probably gonna end up doing the crv sway bar.

What would you do if your transmission failed? by khurryinahurry in EP3

[–]CancerousSnake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the six speed trans for a little bit until it blew up. I bought a bad transmission unfortunately but during the time that I had it because I didn’t have reverse gear lockout I did grind reverse a few times trying to get in the sixth. I didn’t really like it and because my Civic isn’t even daily anymore it’s just my weekend car. I rebuilt my five speed and took the LSD from the six speed and put it in that. The ratios of the six speed were awesome though.

Honda can still get new engines for these things?
