If you are interested in owning this Honda Civic follow the rules in the last video: • I am going to take a b... Today we will install the engine from our 400,000 mile parts car. We did find a nice surprise; the engine does not have 400,000 miles on it. We did find some other pats that need to be replaced while we were working on the engine. Hopefully it runs so we can stop pushing it around by the end of this video.

You should have called it a power plant and watch the comments light up 😂

@gertraba9806 Год назад

And not. Power wash the engine and bay and watch the comments flying

@vehcor Год назад

😂 I’ll keep that in mind for the next time.

"Power plant" is reserved for v8s only

@Mint2842 Год назад

You’re not wrong when it comes to installing an engine harness in the vehicle. I did it this past summer in a F-150 5.0. The crank sensor at the very back of the engine was the bane of my existence😂 This is an amazing series. Truly hope the right person/organization gets this car.

Scott you are proving ever Friday that your talents and abilities are far above the average person, like me. You really are amazing. Everyone associated with your shop have a great weekend. I’ll see you in the next installment. If I ever find my way to your neck of the woods, I will bring pizza.

Nice to see old mr spotty make an early appearance, another great post scott, I’ve always liked theses cars and said to my wife that I might get one just to learn basic stuff like doing my own oil change, putting in new pads, and now that you’ve shown me practically how to rebuild one I’ve no excuse not to get one,

@kickit59 Год назад

Scott I can see this isn't your first rodeo with a Honda Civic! I have done starters on both the Civic & the Accord with the engine installed and they are a bit of a pain especially if all you have are two little ramps to drive the front of the car up on. I couldn't stretch out my arms very well to get at things but I got the job done! You are doing an outstanding thing to help out someone who really needs a car! I hope they appreciate what you are doing for them!

@danielbutler578 Год назад

I can still remember what the parts of several transmissions look like and how they fit together. This is from rebuilding them 20 to 30 years ago. I think visually and I can see in my mind how they come apart and how they go back together. Not everybody can do that and if you can't you take lots of pictures.

@ericingram7864 Год назад

I Love that you're doing this. The haters giving you static are just ridiculous. (as I've seen on insta). I don't understand how someone can crap all over a generous gift.

@vehcor Год назад

Simple, they are unhappy with their lives and instead of working on themselves, they try to bring others down. It hurts them to think someone might be getting help to better their life. Their comments tell more about them than they do about me. I was expecting it. You know me, I love my haters’ tears! 😂 Thanks for the support!

Scott, you're very talented indeed. I have also watched videos available on RU-vid where self trained auto mechanics in poor countries like Pakistan and Bangladesh swap a car or transport truck engine or transmission successfully without having a proper shop and tools.

Think I need to spend less time on the internet - becoming an internet expert - Noooo. Great build and big up to you for this generosity. Only thing I was thinking though, was does it have timing belt or chain and when is it due while the block was out on the cart. I'm going to sit in a darkened room now - away from all technology. Great build Scott.

@adubbelde1 Год назад

I have to say, I was totally intimidated when taking the wiring harness off my GEN V LT!. But then, I'd never worked on a modern motor. Learning the secrets to the locks helped. I got a custom harness from SPEARTECH that was modified for my particular installation. It plugged right in and practically laid itself out on the engine. Now I'll have to remove it to fish it through the firewall when I blow the truck apart for body and paint. (37 Chev Pickup). The engine fired on the first bump of the starter but didn't stay running until the fuel made it from the fuel tank.

@jimmycheese3817 Год назад

While I'm not a "clean freak", I would take the opportunity while the engine is out of the car to power wash the engine and engine bay. If not for looks, it would help you so you're not covered with grease all the time. But I'm guessing you have had more experience than I do (have not done an engine swap yet), so I'll defer to the master.

Hi. Love your videos. I have the 2L version of this engine in the Japanese CRV. Do you have any idea what causes vibration at a stop when in Drive? I have changed the engine mounts, coil packs, spark plugs, clean the throttle body, etc. All parts were OEM. There are a few posts which suggest its a design problem where the engine idles at a lower RPM and cannot be fixed. It's not that bad but just annoying.

the early R18 block were prone to cracking. not the best engine from Honda

@drdiabeetus3061 Год назад

@@Jonathan11225 True, there was a porosity issue with some of the aluminum castings. Small fractures could form around the engine mounts causing leaks in the coolant jackets. Not all of them had this issue though and most were already warranty replaced by Honda. The R18 is overall an amazing piece of engineering. Excellent HP/TQ and Fuel economy for a 1.8L.
