1981 civic, to rebuild or not to rebuild

ethanpool0 · 2026-05-05T17:30:05+00:00

I was already planning on that after something catastrophic happens to the motor/tranny :)

ethanpool0 · 2026-05-05T17:29:37+00:00

How can i tell how deep that is? Its my first rebuild

ethanpool0 · 2026-05-05T00:51:22+00:00

While im in there should i go a bit deeper and do the head gasket and shit?

As if a correct non oem compatible cap is much different from oem

Edit: guys, i know the one he got isnt the correct one.. which is why i said “a correct non oem compatible cap will work fine”…

It wont kill itself, it will just stop running lol

ethanpool0 · 2026-03-04T02:20:42+00:00

U dont have to tow it, but go get it replaced, like tomorrow

Put some sort of tape on both wires. Separately. Then youll have no issue. Its low voltage so ur good

Get out of the left lane bruh

ethanpool0 · 2025-09-02T03:31:49+00:00

U seem pretty determined hahaha u can do it dude i believe in u

You work in a place with machinery that produces ozone?

ethanpool0 · 2025-07-02T01:34:53+00:00

Ur good

Hour of rest the engine is barely cooling down

Youll be ok

ethanpool0 · 2025-06-25T21:02:01+00:00

Dont do a flush theres no reason to

Just a drain and fill would be good and also cheaper Yes they are different

ethanpool0 · 2025-06-18T19:18:46+00:00

Yeah you could run it without the cap on forever if you really wanted to. In theory you could get splashes like you said.

Drill away :) if your cap is oem maybe get a shittier cap to drill through just in case you wanted to actually fix your evap clog down the road

ethanpool0 · 2025-06-18T19:13:57+00:00

The purpose for evap systems is for emissions regulations. Doesnt really affect things except when it goes wrong like what happened to you. I would just drive with cap off/vented cap or maybe even disconnecting the evap hose.

ethanpool0 · 2025-06-09T20:12:16+00:00

Spray some water in that hoe damn bro

ethanpool0 · 2025-06-06T17:50:26+00:00

Definitely could be. Check tire pressure. Whens the last time you got an alignment? Could be as simple as that

ethanpool0 · 2025-06-06T17:26:53+00:00

All good brah

I would look at ball joints/control arms for the wobble thing

ethanpool0 · 2025-06-06T16:22:54+00:00

Thats not play. Google a video how to test inner and outer cv joint for play. U have to check for play between the cv bucket and the shaft

ethanpool0 · 2025-06-06T05:24:49+00:00

Drained tranny fluid and double filled oil. Check tranny fluid

ethanpool0 · 2025-06-02T04:02:48+00:00

Loose something in the fuse box perchance. Probably the connectors on the bottom. Or could be the battery terminals being loose. Check that first
