NEW ENGINE FOR ME! :)

Post by ITR1 »

Im so happy to announce that today after 3 oil consumption tests, and compression/leakdown that Honda canada is giving me a whole new shortblock. *warranty*

My first oil consumption test i burned 1.5l/1000kms, my 2nd was 2.5lts and my 3rd was 1.5... Id get MADD blue clouds of smoke, and my rear bumper was covered in blacksoot/ and would STAIN it ....along with a nasty smell.


They did a compression test on my motor, which came out perfect.. although the leakdown test confirmed that cylinder 1 and 2 was BAD.

Its comming all the way from Japan, so now i gotta wait who knows how long.. its on back order supposedly...

Anyway, this is one helluva a x-mas gift :) its practically a fresh motor "Shortblock/cylinder head?* i was told.... hehe..
Searching done, 2001 ITR :D wooo hoooo! ever-so-happy! its a PLEASURE driving now.
