TrnsDoctr'sSol Posted August 7, 2009 Posted August 7, 2009 well the first question is, does anyone know where i can get a radiator support for my 95 thats not going to cost me an arm and a leg? and under hard acceleration, a trusted mechanic told me, my valves ping, im not sure what would cause this i hear it but it doesnt seem to be affecting anything, but i don't like it. any tips??
airjordan223 Posted August 7, 2009 Posted August 7, 2009 for the radiator support check a local junkyard. also checkout solsociety and the honda-tech marketplace for people parting out sols
TrnsDoctr'sSol Posted August 8, 2009 Author Posted August 8, 2009 yeah i''ve been to every last junkyard in the area and can't even find a civic in the right year range! only one place deffinately had them but they wanted $200 and its not a prefomance issue its just cosmetic as you can see in the pic if i knew how to put it up lol. i'll deffinately check those places tho. any ideas about the "ping"
airjordan223 Posted August 8, 2009 Posted August 8, 2009 in order to post a pic just upload them to photobucket (takes about 30 seconds to make an account) once you upload the pic there, copy the address with the tags, then just paste it here
TrnsDoctr'sSol Posted August 9, 2009 Author Posted August 9, 2009 thanks that helps alot. i really want to try and fix thix cuz the car looks pretty good except for this :'(
Orca89 Posted August 9, 2009 Posted August 9, 2009 any ideas about the "ping" The only thing you can do about that is get your valves adjusted. It's probably not that big a deal, but you should probably either get it done or do it yourself. Valve tap is usually just annoying, not particularly damaging.
