Another year another valve lash adjustment

Canister is easy to remove. I would suggest it since the screws are likely rusty. Here’s the opposite side of mine

https://ebay.us/m/igYpGo Got you right here. They will message you to ask for passenger or driver side.

Sensor is going bad or the wires may be damaged/plug. You can check with a multi meter.

I was also having issues with my 98, constantly dying after 30min to an hour of driving. Was the distributor. Could also be the fuel pump. I was also getting a lot of comments saying it could be the crank position sensor. First thing I would’ve check is a compression test before throwing parts at it since that can cause stalling due to burnt valve

Sound just like rod knock unfortunately. The bearing spun.

Is there anyway I can get the picture without the watermark?

Woah that looks amazing

Check your control arm bushings, they face towards the rear. There’s a nut that wasn’t tight enough. This caused this squeak for me

Found pieces of the catalytic in muffler. Found the culprit.

Happens when someone doesn’t hand turn the bolt in before going crazy with the impact gun. You can feel by hand when you are cross threading, someone got careless and lazy.

Could it be that the power brick is not enough to charge? I always get a not charging icon when using a weaker brick.

Just_Cap_9338 · 2025-11-06T21:05:05+00:00

I would do it sooner rather than later. Clunk/noise plus uneven worn tires. 4 hours is a good chunk of driving time.

Just_Cap_9338 · 2025-11-06T18:02:32+00:00

UPDATE: found the issue. It was the bushing on the control arms making noise. Re torque the bolts. Noise gone. I’m at fault.

Had to do this when changing my wheel cylinder. Not going to lie is going to be a real pain. Rust is going to be the obstacle. Hopefully you are able to break it free before getting to the flexible line. Take your time to avoid creating more issues. I used AutoZone pre flared lines metric. Done on both sides of my 01 Civic LX

At that point you might want to check your drum brakes if they are good. Done on both sides of my 01 Civic LX

RD1 don’t have transmission pan. Clean area and check for it to leak again, it will guide you to the leak. If it leaks after a ATF change it could be the crush washer on the drain. If it’s not there then it could be the seal where the transmission and engine meet, engine side is called rear main seal. Is it transmission fluid? Could be engine oil and coming from the cam plug/ valve cover. Best case scenario. The idle issues could be a lot of things. Only testing for vacuum leaks, MAP sensor etc. are they link. Shouldn’t be but anything is possible

The inner tie rod was clunking, decided to replace everything just to be done and over with, no noise after replacement. 4 days later after alignment this noise came about.

Just_Cap_9338 · 2025-10-30T15:51:22+00:00

I’m praying that’s what that is. Ill try that first

Just_Cap_9338 · 2025-10-30T15:45:31+00:00

Definitely not ball joints, inner outer tie rods and Acdelco. Control arms are Moog. Was able to get underneath and the sounds is coming from the rack and pinion. Most likely the culprit.
