      Thanks, I watched that video as well. Just wanted to see if there is a place to focus my search. 🙂 Seems like a manifold crack is where to start looking and work down from there. As this is the original exhaust, hopefully it is just a gasket.

      I know to use heat to loosen the nuts on exhausts, and I’ll buy new bolts if I have remove them to make life easier in the future. Good thing I have air tools, lol..

        What happened is they didn’t fix it fully, they pulled out the dent, but the paint needs some touching up. I’ll take that and get some touch up paint, cheaper than legal fees and less time consuming too.

          The U-Pull-It by me doesn’t have any Honda Civics in the model range I need, doh!

          But I am hoping its just a gasket as well. I will find out tomorrow night or wed. night. I am in the middle of a set build so I have zero time after the day job to work on this.

          Luckily I have a Forester that she can use, even though I want to use that to do the set build, she might get my Buick instead.

            So far I like it. Its a lot faster, which is a major improvement.

            Premium access for 20 bucks doesn’t sound too bad, that gets videos before they are out to the public and such?

              In my GM’s, I swap out my Iridiums every 80kish.

                This was more of a how-to.

                    As I was out-of-town, they sent it to their local mechanic to have it looked at as she needed it towed somewhere._x000D_

                    It appears to be the Top Dead Center Sensor aka the Crankshaft Position Sensor.

                      Thanks Eric, I had to weigh that I had 1 day to fix this, so I tossed the extra 160 at it to get a beck/arnley reman.

                          It was an in-vehicle test.

                            As I am going out-of-town this week, I didn’t want to chance it and just change out the batter, the alternator looked pretty crusty when I pulled it out._x000D_
                            _x000D_
                            So I swapped out the battery, and the alternator, now the thing is running like a champ.
