    help me out please

    I would at least get a second opinion from someone else. It's hard to trust any mechanic.

    Help with shocks...

    Ok, I bought some eibach pro shocks and pro springs. I went to autozone to rent a spring compressor tool kit. I took off my right front strut, compressed the strut and took it apart. Now no matter what I do I can't get the compressor tool to compress the spring enough to rebuild the shocks. Need...

    Back lit gauges...

    Just wondering if any of you guys have tried installing back lit face gauges? I have a 98 lx and thought about changing mine but don't know if its worth the trouble. Maybe a little input on how they are installed and if ya'll have had any trouble with them would be good. Thanks!

    Face gauges...

    Thanks for the post. I'm going to shop around a little and see whats out there. I think I may just go with some white face gauges. I'm not sure if I want the glow style gauges. What do you guys have? Are the indiglo gauges hard to install?

    Face gauges...

    I was wanting to buy a white gauge face for my 98 lx but can't find what I'm looking for. Does anyone know if the ex gauges and the lx gauges are same for a manuel trans? Any help would be great.

    still horrible mpg's

    I don't think that the high flow cat will through a mass air flow sensor but I could be wrong. You may want to change out the mass air flow sensor and just see if that takes off the cel. I know if you get one from autozone and it doesn't help you can take it back.

    Ebay header...

    The catback is pace setter monza (not bought on ebay). I also went with the magna flow cat. I know its not the best exhaust but it's also my 98 lx sedan dd. It sound pretty good for the price. Low deep tone and not loud and nasty sounding. I wasn't looking to put a lot of money into this car but...

    Alternator, random misfire, running lean, and clacking noise

    I used to work at autozone as a part-time gig and we have a special machine to test the alternator so there's no guess work. Also from my experience the people who had bad alternators didn't even show cel's. So there may be two problems here. You need to go back to autozone have them check the...

    Ebay header...

    Before I post this I know that you get what you pay for. I ordered a new exh system for my 98 civic lx and thought while I was at it I would try one of the ebay headers just for the hell of it. Not suprised when I bolted it all up and installed it the bottom side of it did not fit. It's like...

    1999 Civic Check engine light

    Take it to autozone or any other parts store and they can hook up the obd2 code reader. They should be able to give you a printed copy of the codes that your car puts up.

    Catback problem

    They only make catback systems for the honda ex. and the 2/4 door are the same. I have a 98 lx sedan and got one for it. The reason for it being to short is because the ex has a cat converter in that location. You can get a magnaflow cat for a 99 ex or a test pipe. If you go with a test pipe you...
