Anyone have the pinouts for the standard 20 pin head unit power/speaker
connectors used on most post 1999 cars such as Civic etc?

I have a 92 Civic CX(1.5 8v), swapped to a 93 Civic EX (1.6VTEC). The car runs like a champ on the lower cam, but as I top out vtec about 1000rpm before revlimit (7100 I think...) it starts to pop and skip, and my tach jumps like crazy. I unhooked the tach and it is less ...

My A/C is not working are their fuses or relays I may want to check?  How
do you tell the high side and low side if I check the R-134A pressure?
what type of psi is normal?

I am going to lower my 92 Civic Hatch, about 1.5", with tein s-tech springs. Will the negative camber be enough to wear my tires fast, I have 17" rims on it now, but I drag race on weekends with 15
Thank

After an oil change, my trusty independent mechanic  told my wife that
1.  Radiator and heater hoses need to be replaced since the Honda Civic
is now 5 years old :
$350.

I am thinking about a '98-99 Civic or Accord. What are their pros/cons
Civic appears to be easier to service with more room in the engine bay.

Good Morning All,
 My Check Engine Light came on last night. Error code was P1253. Also
noticed that when I'm on the highway and I go to accelerate, the engine
feels like it downshifts, the RPMs increase, but it does not go any

I used to think that there could not possibly be any significant difference
in MPG from one gas brand to another. However I now do seem to be noticing
a difference.
When I use 76 Gasoline from my local gas station in Milpitas California I

Last night I went into a Honda dealer and agreed to purchase  a new car.  I
really wanted to pay at most $300 a month, over 5 years, but the dealer said
that would not be possible because of the overall cost of the car.The initial
quote the dealer gave me was $395 a month for 5 ...

Hi every one!
I had read one article today related to "saving on gas" at www.about.com,
they mentioned that steel belted radial tires could help me to save about 10%
on gas. I have no idea what these tires are.

I'm installing a drive axle for the first time in my '88 Acura Legend.
I can easily engage the splines of the inboard end of the axle into
the transaxle, but I can't get it to seat the last 3/4" or so to
engage the locking clip. Everything I see says don't hammer on these

Reviving an old thread that I couldn't locate anymore:
06 Civic now at around 3,000 miles -- last two tanks, almost 35 and
almost 37 mpg respectively.  Up from about 29 when it was new.
I'm sure the switch to summer fuel made a substantial difference.  It

I just purchased a stripped down 2006 Civic DX with no stereo. Any
suggestions on the best stereo to put in there? One which doesn't
require a miracle to get it installed? Ideally I'd like to install it
myself but not if I have to fabricate brackets, etc.

Hi all, I recently replaced timing belt/water pump on my wife's 98
civic. I also ajusted valves clearance as well. After taking the car
for its first ride, my wife complained about a pinging noise that I
immediatly validated. I checked back the belt job - everything was
