Default F my car.

On the way to class today, either the front main seal or balance shaft seal popped out(honda bulletin/recall), and I lost all of my oil. Unfortunately the "recall" expired 2+ yrs ago and my main/rod bearings might be fucked. I love my Honda.

Louie, I don't know how, but the weld is leaking lol, so I just gobbed the sucker with RTV, but I have other oil leakage issues that are a bit more important now

Hope this isn't the death of the "Terbo Lood"

See? Honda's break too.

I know what it's like man.. Sorry for your misfortune.

I don't think I'm going to mod another daily driver except for maybe little things like wheels and audio/video type things for visuals only.. and I'm not talking about body kits and wings or anything.

somewhere on Honda Tech a guy did a F22/H22 frank motor. Ended up working too.

Might want to look into it. Some work though.

Recalls expire?... maybe a TSB.. but if they had a recall on it.. then it shouldnt expire
