[RhodeStiva]

Well one cylinder was good







Changed the valve seals
In a couple hours
Tomorrow reset timing.

[shadetree]

Valve seals in a couple of hours with the rope trick ! Wow now that's good timing if its back together !
Did you have the keeper toll ?

[RhodeStiva]

Yea had keeper tool. And it is all together and car cranks but sounds like timing is off a little got to dark. So finish tomorrow.

[RhodeStiva]

BAM!!!!





Cylinder 3 had wet oil while the others was dry and black

[RhodeStiva]

Pulled oil pan and piston. Pistons came out easy I just pushed them.

[Flyin4stroke]

The valve seals look dry.

[RhodeStiva]

I'm thinking now it might be the head gasket.

[RhodeStiva]

Just finished honing

Nice and smooth.

[Flyin4stroke]

Was it over heating at all? Any water in the oil? Or oil in the water?

[RhodeStiva]

no none of that? but one cylinder was wet i wiped my finger and it wasnt oil i think that is why is was so clean compared to the others. but i might get my head redone or try another at JY.

I like these gauges a lot.

Did u have to get a longer speedo cable i have a 91L and got a a cluster with a tach but the speedo cable is too darn short

[RhodeStiva]

yeah i got it from Flyinfourstroke but i think a 95 civic would work.
