first its my shocks blow out that where less than a year old b/c i have no protective boot to protect the shaft from the ------- nasty weather in E. Washington... then I think my head gasket is fucked b/c i reused head bolts during my mini-me, i'm getting excesive pressure in my radiator causing my resivor to puke if i drive it hard... my tranny is kinda leaking some ---- from there the shifter lever thing mounts to the shift linkage...and i'm paranoid my clutch is prematurly wearing...

so instead of getting to buy new turbo stuff i'm stuck having to replace parts... sad thing is i have a feeling its only gonna get worst once boosted...

i take full responsibility for trying to take a short cut and reusing head bolts...

aight... i'm done venting

well maybe u didtn torque them right. i reause headbolts all the time with no problems.

I've used my head bolts 3 times, the person before me probably used them 3 times. my car runs, most of the time.

Kyle: your car runs MOST of the time...haaah...

well i recently checked the tightness of the heard bolts right after i noticed the resivor overflowing and yes, they where loose. So i retourqed them down to 53lbs and everything was dandy for about a week... now my resivor is starting to puke again. maybe the head gasket got fucked while the bolts became loose... so i just figure i better replace the head gasket, head bolts and check for warpage.

SOUNDS LIKE A PLAN STAN~!

head bolts don't just come loose, they may get looser, but once torqued they should not move. did you at least sell your tokicos?

Honda16hb

somebody else already said that, ban.

Spenser

yes, like I said, sounds like a plan
