• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Rough Idle after engine reaches 3-4 bars

    I looked at the paperwork and it made no mention of an update. The tech was not there when I picked it up, but when I dropped it off, I told him I was nervous about the DPS issues that seemed to pop up after the update to the update. I will go up sometime soon and ask him. It is running much...

    Rough Idle after engine reaches 3-4 bars

    Update: Brought it to the dealer, the tech changed the purge valve and it is running back to normal now. It has been cool here in CT, but in city driving the temp has got up to 5 bars and it is running much better than before. Thanks for all the help.

    Spring is in the air, and on the garage floor!

    update on this. The spring was from one of my Harbor Freight tools a pair of wire cutters. :roflblack: Notice the small springs in this set: http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=4807

    Drive belt tension.

    :agree: The original specs seemed too tight, and now such a drastic drop. Here is a converter: http://online.unitconverterpro.com/unit-conversion/convert-alpha/force.html

    Drive belt tension.

    And that is (was) the acceptable range when checking, but for adjusting, the specs are even tighter: 1400-1600 Newtons. The rear wheel is supposed to be off the ground to check the tension.

    Drive belt tension.

    Easy job Sarge. I have the guage here as well as a torque wrench and allen wrench. Thats all thats needed except for the 36 MM socket and a large adjustable. Auto Zone has the 36 MM socket to loan when needed. I have one here. Pop over and we can check the tension and adjust if needed.

    Drive belt tension.

    Thanks for the info. I have mine at just below 200 ft lbs according to the Kricket. I dont notice much road noise, but it does howl when pushing it backwards.

    Drive belt tension.

    It comes with instructions. It has to be in the middle of the belt and parallel to the edges. The middle of the belt is behind the drivers foot peg bracket.

    Y pipe gasket replacement

    The ticking does not seem to match up with the engine speed. I don't have any HID's installed, just some LED lighting.

    Y pipe gasket replacement

    Well I checked that, thanks. Seems ok, not loud, no signs of leaks, and I got my hands around there best I coud and did not feel any air escaping. I think I will order a set of those Honda gaskets to have on hand anyway, and then keep my eyes and ears open for a problem in the future.

    Y pipe gasket replacement

    Scotty, I had ran it at night with the tupperware off and checked for spark grounding. I found none. I even had the air box off with the filter laying over the throttle body so I could see the front cyl. At the same time, I had a hose to my ear trying to locate that ticking. I put it around...

    Y pipe gasket replacement

    When this gasket goes, is the noise very noticable? I have been hunting down a ticking noise coming from the engine area, using a hose in my ear to try to pinpoint it. Seems like it is coming from the front and is more noticable when hot. I also am having a rough idle, so I think it may be...
