Goodbye H23 #2!!

[twokexlv6coupe]

So I was TRYING to drive to NY to help rich and kenny do a clutch job on kenny's SH, and about 15 minutes away from school the engine starts bugging the fcuk out, then oil and battery light come on and engine shuts off.
So then I spent about 2 hours trying to get my car back to school, 2nd gear on the shoulder with my hazards on, cuz the car WILL NOT go any faster than that!! Sounds like the bottom end is knocking :mad: :mad: :mad:
Checked the oil and its about 2 quarts low. So I'll look at that tomorrow.










Annnnnddddddddddd to top that all off..... I think I lost my wallet/got pick-pocketed in philly last night, right after getting some cheesesteaks!!!!!




They say bad things happen in 3's....
I just got home and asked my parents if they needed to tell me anything, and thank god they didnt. I'm just waiting for someone to be like "oh yea nick, there's something you should know......."
























fukkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

[DJSERGESLiK]

Damn man.. Sorry to hear that.. Hopefully someone find the wallet and will return it some how. And as for the lude man, I have no idea what to say but sorry

[PreludeBoy95']

yeah man sorry 2 hear...hopefully u get things rockin again

[Si Speed]

It's a sign that you need an H22 ni66a.

[twokexlv6coupe]

It's a sign that you need an H22 ni66a.

seriously. i'm about 95% positive the turbo kit is going up for sale, that'll fund my H22 from HMO or somewhere that i get a warranty from, then i'm not even gonna TOUCH that motor after i/h/e, clutch and FW.



unless a miracle happens :rolleyes:

[Dwend]

That sucks. Sorry to hear. Let try for that miracle.
JARyder19 has a H23 that I think he wants to sell badly.

[Si Speed]

www.hmotorsonline.com is awesome

You COULD get an F20B so you can maintain your "not on the H22 bandwagon" status. Hmotors carries them. be sure to get the LSD tranny that comes with it. I don't know why more people don't get that engine.

[hotrod]

dayum neck. sorry to hear about that.

[InvaderTrax]

Or make yourself a G23. I made one a few months ago. To my knowledge, it's still kickin :P

[twokexlv6coupe]

Or make yourself a G23. I made one a few months ago. To my knowledge, it's still kickin :P

link/pics now or ban! :tongue:



i WAS planning to build a G22T if this motor woulda last longer, but i need the car on the road ASAP :redface:

[ImPorTuNeRdJ]

i hope someone finds your wallet, hopefully something good will happen to you out of all this

[InvaderTrax]

The one I made was simple as can be.

F22Ax block
H23A1 head
F23A1 head gasket
H23A1 timing belt and lower timing gear
F22Ax water pump
F22Ax balance shaft belt

Just slap it together and go

[BadMofo]

Dude... I know I'm not a mod or anything... but if you blow up another H series... I think it deserves teh ban!!!

Lol, I'm only playin man.. but dude... that really sucks. I wish you the best of luck with whatever direction you're gonna go next.

[twokexlv6coupe]

ok so: i took the oil pan off right now and checked over the bottom end, and everything APPEARS to look ok. no metal shavings in the oil/pan.

but what i did notice is this: the first time i pulled over yesterday, i noticed that the #2 spark plug, the finger at the end of the plug was bent and touching the tip of the plug, so i replaced it with another NGK plug that i had.
then i tried driving it about another 5 miles.
now the same exact thing happened to the #2 spark plug.

now: is it possible for the piston to slam into the tip of the spark plug?
or are the plugs recessed in the head??

[my4thgenlude]

that sux dude...
http://www.hmotorsonline.com/shop/images/f20blongblock.jpg

[94ludeguy]

if they are the correct plug then there should be no clearance issues. they should be flush with the top of the combustion chamber. thats how they looked when i took my head off

[twokexlv6coupe]

ok, change that to both #2 and 3 spark plugs are doing that.

could bent valves possibly hit the plugs??

[94ludeguy]

no it shouldnt b.c i bent valves also and they were not bent that far. i would get some new plugs, make sure they are correct one and them fire it up. it will run with bent valves but will sound like ****, really sputtery

[ogsmakdade]

Sorry to hear bro.
looks like another trip to the dirty jerz for b and myself......................


NO BUDWEISER!

[twokexlv6coupe]

wait, maybe you guys dont hafta come!!! (unless you wanna help with a head swap:tongue: )


wanna know what you SHOULDN'T find just chillin inside your head?!?

a rocker arm and a valve retainer for the first valve on #1 cylinder!!!!

[ogsmakdade]

I'll help w/ the head swap for sheezy!

[Brash22]

Man that sucks mate!

So did I read that correctly, failed valve gear on #1 was stuffing the plugs in #2 and #3?

[94ludeguy]

wait, maybe you guys dont hafta come!!! (unless you wanna help with a head swap:tongue: )


wanna know what you SHOULDN'T find just chillin inside your head?!?

a rocker arm and a valve retainer for the first valve on #1 cylinder!!!!

damn man thats a new one. maybe its salvagable. it could of happened cuz of low oil level

[stealth47]

They say bad things happen in 3's....

True that dude, its taken me 3 days and im just starting to make progress with this steering

[thomas97]

screw the H series,
F20C ftw!

[thomas97]

do this swap!
http://www.hmotorsonline.com/shop/sc2000search.cgi?what=page&item=30012
:biggrin:
:cool:

[twokexlv6coupe]

sure lemme just convert my car to RWD, and might as well do RHD while i'm at it.



to brash: i have no idea if the 2 problems are intertwined with each other, but i HOPE by swapping my old H23 head will solve them :redface:

[98vtec]

compression test/leakdown.

also test your alternator to make sure its providing sufficient power to the battery.

[rich045]

oyyy, thats not good, well it couldve been worse. let me know when you gonna do this, i can prolly come by give you a hand.

[twokexlv6coupe]

oyyy, thats not good, well it couldve been worse. let me know when you gonna do this, i can prolly come by give you a hand.


i swear, this is the 3rd time my car has gotten fcuked up driving from trenton to newark/NYC.
1st time - nearly broke the tenzo rim in half.
and 2nd - blew up the 1st H23.

i think its a sign.

[twokexlv6coupe]

i'll try a compression test on it this weekend, but the very last time i tried starting it, it would crank but wouldn't turn over after like 20+ cranks, and there was alotta white/blue smoke comin out the exhaust :frown:

as long as she still cranks over this weekend *crosses fingers*

[3rdGenCrazy]

dang bro. sorry to hear man. but looks like ur catchin up w/ J on the motors crappin out! lol. but seriously good luck bro. hope ur head swap will fix the problem!

[ogsmakdade]

well??????//

[twokexlv6coupe]

welllll..... the car is up on jack-stands @ home, and i'm down at school with no car. gotta figure out a way to get to the DMV tomorrow to buy another license and registration, and how to get home on friday, while stopping by autozone to rent a compression tester and buy 4 spark plugs.

[ogsmakdade]

so you swappin heads this weekend?

[twokexlv6coupe]

i wont know til i do the comp test on friday.

but i'll let ya know when the head/motor swap will be ahead of time :top:

[ogsmakdade]

word. I'm down.

[twokexlv6coupe]

and this time i'll have the new head/motor IN MY POSESSION ready to be swapped!!!

and your choice of brews, to make up for last time :wink:

[ogsmakdade]

[twokexlv6coupe]

SOMEONE FOUND MY WALLLETTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:





i got a facebook message from some random guy saying:
"Hey Nick,

I found your wallet at Genos. I mailed it to your house. Have a good day.

David "


how the hell do i even attempt to repay him?
i asked if i could buy him a cheesesteak, since geno's is a nationally-famous cheesesteak place.



omg i am BEYOND excited/ecstatic/thrilled/surprised/(insert exciting adjective here)

[Prelude13]

That's good news.
There are some decent people left in this world. I'm really surprised.

Hey i have a compression tester. That and i left my tools there last time.
I may be free this weekend, i hate paying tolls into NJ though :mad:

You dont really need 3 people to swap a head though...but we'll see. I may just come out to chill.

if Daryl comes, i'll take more pics of his van for some people that want to see the inside :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

[3rdGenCrazy]

thats awesome bro! but i doubt there is ne money in it if u did have any in it. if ur money is still in it then thats really awesome. but somebody else prolly found it first took the money & threw it bac on the ground.

[twokexlv6coupe]

thats awesome bro! but i doubt there is ne money in it if u did have any in it. if ur money is still in it then thats really awesome. but somebody else prolly found it first took the money & threw it bac on the ground.

STOP CRUSHING MY DREAMS, I'M ON CLOUD 9 RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :mad: :rolleyes:

[3rdGenCrazy]

HAHA. sorry bro!

[98vtec]

wish i could help you out some...too bad you are so far away.

[twokexlv6coupe]

its all good blake. i got a couple italians (figure of speach) willing to help, along with an unlimited amount of information between SHO, H-T, PP, CB7T, etc etc



damn, this weekend looks like its gonna be cold. not gonna be fun to work on the car :frown:

Genos FTL

Pat's Steaks and Jim's Steaks FTMFW son!

Tell the truth... you just like Geno's because it's an Italian sounding name =P

Hehe, j/p man

[donepps]

Im sorry to hear about your engine bro... but happy about your wallet! these things are all tests, be patient... REMAINING PATIENT IS THE KEY!
by the way genos FTMFW!!!

[twokexlv6coupe]

Genos FTL

Pat's Steaks and Jim's Steaks FTMFW son!

Tell the truth... you just like Geno's because it's an Italian sounding name =P

Hehe, j/p man



matter of fact, we parked in front of Geno's and walked over to Pats cuz there wasn't enough parking in front of pats :tongue:
i told my friend "geno's looks too much like a seaside boardwalk attraction. pats is nice and civilized looking from the outside"

[BadMofo]

matter of fact, we parked in front of Geno's and walked over to Pats cuz there wasn't enough parking in front of pats :tongue:
i told my friend "geno's looks too much like a seaside boardwalk attraction. pats is nice and civilized looking from the outside"

You made a wise choice my friend! =P. But, to be honest... it's "to each his own". I know plenty of people who hate Pat's but love Geno's... mostly because people don't like Pat's with whiz (but, most people don't realize that you can get them with regular cheese too if you ask for it). My thing is, I think Geno's is too dry... but my favorite is really Jim's... you gotta try them next time, there's a few around the city... the one on South Street is the best.

Funny story about Pat's.. ever see "The Soup Nazi" on Seinfeld? Well the guys at Pat's are like the stake Nazis if you don't order correctly... I was up there one time, and a guy ordered one "with, whiz" (for those of you who don't know the etiquette at Pat's... "with" means with fried onions... and "whiz" means cheese whiz... if you wanted a steak with american cheese and no fried onions... the proper etiquette is "one steak, without, american"... they do it like that because they get so busy, it simplifies the orders for the cooks)... So anyway... this guy orders his stake "with, whiz"... and as he gives them the money, he asks for "a little more onions"... well this was his first mistake... the guy glared at him with intensity but kept his cool, and put some extra fried onions on top... then, the guy ordering took it too far... he looks down at the stake and goes "i'm sorry... that's too much on--" and before he could finish his sentenc... the guy working at pats RIPS the steak sandwich out of his hand... throws it into the trash... and then THROWS the dudes money back into his face and "politely" told him to get out of line lol... It was like the real life version of "INSTANT BAN!":biggrin:

Moral of the story: Remember to order correctly at Pat's... because they will not hesitate to permaban you from their facility... they get PLENTY of business, and don't need yours =P... it's one case where "the customer's always right" doesn't apply...

Ok... </end rant>... back on topic now =P.

[twokexlv6coupe]

Hahaha yea i've heard plenty about ordering it correctly or else they'll send you to the back of the line. being my first time @ pats, i asked matt "do they REALLY enforce that??" he's like "yea dude, dont mess it up or else they'll send you to the back of the line" (which at this point is 30-40 people deep)
so i kept practicing it while waiting on line, and the moral of my story is a "without, provolone" is mighty delicious :biggrin: :cool:





NO SOUP FOR YOU!!!!

[ogsmakdade]

did you jus call me a *** neck?

[twokexlv6coupe]

did you jus call me a *** neck?

sorry, i can't decypher asterisks' :biggrin:

[ogsmakdade]

the asteriks spelled with out papers. lol

[BadMofo]

As an Italian, as much as I hate that acronym... at least you know what it means lol... most people don't even know that it stands for anything.

[twokexlv6coupe]

my mommy just called me and told me my cash and credit cards were still in there :arms:
even tho i only had a max of $30 cash, and 2 credit cards and 1 debit.... the fact that he didnt even take anything, then returned it, is outstanding.



and your damn straight i called you a guinea :biggrin:

[hotrod]

excellent. that's good news neck.

[twokexlv6coupe]

they're calling for snow this weekend, and if it doesnt snow, its gonna be freeking COLD!! :frown: so i doubt its even worth the hassle of finding a ride home, just to do a compression test.

but maybe it is worth it just so i can find out exactly whats wrong with the motor so i can start planning on working on her during my spring break.

iono

[3rdGenCrazy]

my mommy just called me and told me my cash and credit cards were still in there :arms:

that is AWESOME nick! glad to hear bro! looks like everything is going good for u!

[bboi_xtc]

you should attempt to drive up here and help me with my tranny swap. =)

[twokexlv6coupe]

you should attempt to drive up here and help me with my tranny swap. =)

since your car is driveable, you should bring me the F22 from your parts car, help me install it, then i'll be able to help with your tranny swap :smile:

[ogsmakdade]

you need to send that guy a case of beer or something man. that's amazing that he didn't take anything. It's hard to believe there are still good people in this world.

[twokexlv6coupe]

i know seriously man. i'm thinkin like $50 or somethin

[twokexlv6coupe]

so i might get one of my boys, who i can basically trust my life with, do a comp test this weekend if he's home. all he wants in return is to borrow my snowboarding jacket. i can deal w/ that trade :cool:

[bboi_xtc]

since your car is driveable, you should bring me the F22 from your parts car, help me install it, then i'll be able to help with your tranny swap :smile:

Unfortunately the motor and tranny is still in the car, along with the pedals and everything else. Plus I have no way of transporting all that stuff. =(

[twokexlv6coupe]

just throw it in the back of manny's car and bring it over :biggrin:

[HondaNeedsBoost]

u need to get D's engine in there...shell fly then :slug:

[twokexlv6coupe]

haha, i thought you were serious, til i saw the slug.

where the fcuk did the slug smilie come from?!!?

[HondaNeedsBoost]

umm im not sure...i saw it used earlier

[ogsmakdade]

don't hate. my motor is beast. too bad I can't use it lol

[HondaNeedsBoost]

thats y ur givin it to me...:biggrin1::biggrin1::biggrin1:

[twokexlv6coupe]

don't hate. my motor is beast. too bad I can't use it lol


DARYL!!!! LETS HAVE A DRAG RACE!!
you vs me, in my driveway.




first one to coast to the bottom wins. loser hasta buy a case of brews.:friday:

[ogsmakdade]

nick mine will win because it's heavier and will get to the bottom faster.

wait, I wonder how much it weighs with no interior lol

[ogsmakdade]

you should attempt to drive up here and help me with my tranny swap. =)

I wish you people lived closer, I'd be workin on a lude every week.:biggrin:

[twokexlv6coupe]

nick mine will win because it's heavier and will get to the bottom faster.

wait, I wonder how much it weighs with no interior lol


falling objects fall at the same rate of 9.8m/s^2, or 32.2ft/s^s, regardless of weight. we would hafta split the case :biggrin:

[ogsmakdade]

well mine is more aerodynamic because it doesn't have a stupid spoiler or broken front lip.

damn engineering majors lol

[rheakpl]

omgosh wat the hecks happenin over there...
and that elephant pic was hillarious hahaha.

so wats the progress report now?

[ogsmakdade]

waitin for the title to read "goodbye H23 #3" LMAO

[twokexlv6coupe]

waitin for the title to read "goodbye H23 #3" LMAO


assjack.

except the next one isn't gonna have "H23" in teh title :wink: :biggrin:

[3rdGenCrazy]

NICK!?! u better NOT be jumping on the H22 bandwagon! :mad2:

[twokexlv6coupe]

take a chill-pill eric, there's a PLETHORA of other potential direct-swap engines into 4g's, if y'know what i'm gettin at :wink:

[ogsmakdade]

F22 w/ some 9:1 forged pistons and a little head work.

[3rdGenCrazy]

no i dont kno wat ur gettin at. lol. maybe u should shoot me a pm or IM me and enlighten me! haha

edit: beat my D. is he right? lol

[ogsmakdade]

just a wild guess....... I bet I'm not far off, if at all. and I'm sure he won't tell lol

[BadMofo]

Sounds like a safe bet for Neck... you know he's goin for boost.. and that F22 sounds like a good candidate.

[twokexlv6coupe]

so i'm going home this weekend to do a compression test on the motor, and i have a feeling i'll be doing a head-swap as well (depends on the comp test results) then we'll see if the new head fixes the problem.

my hopes aren't too high right now cuz the more i watch my videos, the more it sounds like something knocking on the bottom end. yayy

[ogsmakdade]

it's that number 3 rod again!

[twokexlv6coupe]

i'm gonna sh!t a brick if i broke my crank in half again :tongue:


then i'll just laugh my ass off.

[BadMofo]

If you broke another crank in half... I think your car is haunted/bad luck... it's time to get a priest over there and Exorcise that bitch.

[twokexlv6coupe]

is it safe to do a comp test with no oil in the engine?

[BadMofo]

I don't know how much damage you'd be doin to your cylinder walls just by cranking a few times... but it's definitely not gonna be GOOD for your motor lol. Remember that you gotta crank your motor over for a while... once on each cylinder. I would definitely add a little bit of oil if it's bone dry...

[twokexlv6coupe]

dammit. its bone dry from when i took the earl pan off 2 weeks ago

[BadMofo]

You might wanna ask someone else though... I dunno for sure, I could be way off. It might be perfectly fine for all I know lol.

[twokexlv6coupe]

well, it turns out my timing belt skipped a tooth or 2. that would explain why i had no power and it was runnnig like sh!t

think the valves are still fine??

[ogsmakdade]

that's questionable. I'd pull the head and check.

[twokexlv6coupe]

big props to rich for comin out today to help me pull the head.

well between the skipped t-belt, and the broken valve clip, THAT valve was def bent, i had to hammer it outta the head. you could also see where that valve was hitting the piston.
idk about the rest of the valves tho.

as for the cylinder walls, they look DECENT, no major scoring. but who knows if there's more damage that i can't actually see.

and idk about putting my old H23 head on this block now. after looking at both heads side by side, my old one looks pretty discolored, like a burnt orange. prolly from running that motor without oil?


sooo.... i guess right now the PLAN is to pick up ray's F22a for $200 next weekend and drop that baby in.

[ogsmakdade]

you will be disapointed. I'd buy a head gasket and put the old head on before I'd put a f22 in my car.

[3rdGenCrazy]

dang bro. sorry to hear. but atleast u can get another motor for cheap! now tell me what ur doin to f22!.. NOW! haha

[rich045]

you will be disapointed. I'd buy a head gasket and put the old head on before I'd put a f22 in my car.

i would take an f22 over havin no car

f22 + prelude = FREEDOM!!! :flame:

no car = party pooper :frown:

[Brash22]

Man Nick, you're really having some bad luck. But I'd think again before swapping in an F. Firstly, do they swap straight in, or do you need to muck around with engine mounts and such?

[twokexlv6coupe]

disappointed or not, i need a motor in the car, soon.

plus after getting a couple of other opinions, i dont feel very comfortable putting my old head on this block, nor do i feel too comfortable with the bottom end on this motor. there's just so many things that could be wrong with either the head or block that i can't see, that its just not worth the gamble.

and colin: F22's came in the 4th gen S models, so it SHOULD be almost a direct swap. just gotta worry about OBD2 engine with OBD1 car.

[Brash22]

Yeh I figured, but I wonder if all the mounting hardware was different as well? Or if the H23 trans will bolt up, or all those other thing you never think about like cruise control, a/c, etc. Ok, I'll stop now.

[twokexlv6coupe]

yep, tranny should be no problem.


since we all love pictures: :biggrin:

[ogsmakdade]

man. call me when you know when you're doin the swap. I'm down for a couple days in jersey.

[Prelude13]

f22 = d16

Such blasphemy to transplant an Accord motor into a Prelude...and you know, those Accord people swear the f22 is fast. :sick:

I know you'll turbocharge this SOHC motor until the cows come home, right Nick?


edit: oh, and before you turbo your f22, i can safely say, my 3rd gen is faster than you :tongue: :tongue: :tongue:

[twokexlv6coupe]

98% certain the double F22 swap is going down this weekend, for the 2 peeps above me (+ rich too) :cool:

SOHC, DOHC, vtec, no vtec, 2.3 liter, 2.2 liter... i dun care, i needa motor.

[twokexlv6coupe]

oh yea, and my puppy is faster than my car, so thats not saying much B :tongue:

[Prelude13]

LOL, sorry Nick...that was a cheap shot.
Would love to help you out with the swap...but before(we) commit to coming out to the swamps of NJ...1 thing:

1)Imported lager and sandwiches WITH Mayonaise. :biggrin:

[twokexlv6coupe]

does it gotta be imported?
cuz i was thinking sammy adams.

and my mom will DEF cook for you guys this time. but if you insist on subway.......

[ogsmakdade]

no subway. I had the chiiits for 2 days. and if you put mayo in anything I'm to eat, I'll kill you.

[twokexlv6coupe]

roger that captain; no subway.

swamps of NJ, HA. you guys love where i live, dont hate.

[BadMofo]

NJ FTW! Lol... good luck on the swap nick... wish I could help out but I don't have any cars that can make the journey up there =(. Let me know how everything goes.

[rich045]

dude this sucks, tolls just went up (thank god ezpass gives you a dollar discount) but still, it sucks.

and yea, lets get this thing going, i'll see if i have any goodies i can bring so we can play, just do your HW on that obd2 crap, maybe you can make it work with a obd1 or something like a step down harness like they do with the horrifying 5th gens.

hey sorry i'm getting a late response to your PM. seems like you have everything under control now. I really dont know what to tell you as to why it happened without alot of background information on the motor. The skipped timing belt tells me that maybe the belt was not tensioned correctly or maybe the tensioner gave out at a certain point in time, i dunno. I havent really read your whole thread.
