Since I've been tuning on my s300 the car runs super rich with the ECT that low, and the IAT's being real low, also.

and I feel like I shouldn't have to lower my the parameters for the car to run correctly.


Could my thermostat be faulty? or should I put something in front of the radiator to limit the flow to it? (it's the OEM 99-00 civic radiator) or do I just need to get over the fact that my coolant system works very well?



another thing that stumps me is my buddy, he has an ITR motor in his hatch with a radiator from a 90-93 integra and he can't ever get below 200* while i'm about 40-50 degrees cooler than him.



i have a LS motor btw,

TIA! ]]> Tech/Misc ohsnapzafingcu http://honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=2683456 http://honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=2683444&goto=newpost Thu, 19 Nov 2009 17:09:05 GMT I bought a 97 Integra GSR a few months ago. It had a bad passenger front wheel bearing. I've replaced the bearing a total of 4 times now. Twice I replaced the entire knuckle. The wheel bearings only last 50 miles then they go to complete shit.

Normally when a bearing goes bad, it just makes a loud humming noise. But this is catastrophic. No humming. But the hub wobbles in all directions. It's the hub. It's not the tie rod, bushings, etc etc. I have the knuckle in hand. This after only 50 miles. When I installed it, it had no play at all.

So can anyone tell me what can destroy a wheel bearing in less than 50 miles? ]]> Tech/Misc suspendedHatch http://honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=2683444 http://honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=2683411&goto=newpost Thu, 19 Nov 2009 15:56:25 GMT To make a long story short, I rebuilt my H22 bottom end in the spring.

I re-installed the head using a Cometic multi-layer head gasket and ARP head studs. Recently I was having runnability issues and found broken valve keepers, so I pulled the head to fix them. When I did, the head gasket was soaked with oil on either side. The motor leaked oil worse than before the rebuild, but I attributed that to not replacing the cam seals because that's where it was leaking from. Being a mutli-layer head gasket, I'd like to think that torquing the head would have compressed the layers together, which it did not. I followed the proper torque sequence, and torqued the head to 80ft/lbs, the recommended torque given by ARP. Does either ARP or Cometic require r-torquing the studs after a certain interval? Would the gasket be soaked on both sides with improper torquing? ]]> Tech/Misc Specail Ed http://honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=2683411 http://honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=2683263&goto=newpost Thu, 19 Nov 2009 05:12:47 GMT i have a 92 honda civic, and my heater is not blowing hot... a/c and everything else works and blows fine but when i change it to hot to blow heat it... i have a 92 honda civic, and my heater is not blowing hot... a/c and everything else works and blows fine but when i change it to hot to blow heat it just blows air... can someone tell me what might be wrong?? thanks... ]]> Tech/Misc Homotor http://honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=2683263 http://honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=2683193&goto=newpost Thu, 19 Nov 2009 03:16:31 GMT Would a bad clock spring cause the instrument panel and taillight fuse to blow when turning?
