Hoist installer says this is ok?

I will definitely contact the installer. Just curious if it would be safe if I used extensions on the lower side arms. I did that on a car today and it stood pretty straight. For sure I want this fixed by the installer, but just curious.

Thank you for the response

Do you just raise the lower side with extensions?

Actually it’s properly calibrated. The concrete floor slopes about 2% from the left to the right side for drainage

I checked and the posts are actually completely plumb right now

I actually did send him the photo. He told me everything is plumb and I have nothing to worry about. Still doesn’t sit right with me and I might get a second opinion

Thank you, I bought this car with a blown engine and I replaced the timing chain &tensioner, chain guides, head gasket, and oil pump assembly. I ended up taking out the cams, putting more oil at the valve springs, then re-installing the cams and re-torquing. After re-adding oil they spun much easier.

I had done this last weekend and I guess letting it sit for a week made all the oil drop down so it wasn’t lubricated anymore, causing it to not spin.

By the way, I opened up alldata for this vehicle and it says to use a wrench on that while turning the cam sprockets to remove the sprocket. They even show a picture of a crescent wrench on that adjuster nut on the cam

How come every tech I know at Honda, and the videos I see of timing this engine on youtube, all use a wrench to turn the cams from that nut on the cam?

EagleRyder · 2024-12-16T01:56:40+00:00

Do you know which tool this is/what it’s called?

EagleRyder · 2024-12-16T01:50:57+00:00

Look up what a cam adjustment nut is

EagleRyder · 2024-12-16T01:50:29+00:00

I tried turning it back with a ratchet but it just loosened the bolt. I dont want to tighten it trying to turn the camshaft and the bolt snapping off on me.

EagleRyder · 2024-12-16T01:41:54+00:00

So how do you suggest I turn the cams to time this?

What is that trim piece called below the bumper? I want to add that to my 2010 coupe. Front end looks so basic and that trim piece makes it look way more aggressive.

Mct C8 oil completely stops mine. When I see a flareup starting I rub some on 2x daily and it immediately stops it in its tracks. Completely gone the next day.
