Re: My prelude needs a new carb
 

My buddy and I built a 1985 crx with a 45mm webers back in the day. Then went ls/vtec and blew the motor up with no rev limiter


Car qualified #8 in an all motor class at idrc back in 1999 I think



I still have a set of 45mm weber carbs for my 1st gen crx.

Really? I had an 87 Prelude S loaner car for two weeks, with the dual Keihin unimpressiveness. I didn't know they carried that stuff on until 88-89.

What I found odd was all the carbed 92-95 chassis civic's/teg's in jap land

I was working on sticking a set of mikuni 42's off an R1 on my d15b2 but I sold the car today.

Chopped the plenumn off an obx manifold and clamped on some hose to attach the carbs, they had basically the same cylinder spacing. For ignition I had a GM 7 pin HEI module, which controls dwell and has a built in advance curve, to read off the stock TDC sensor and power a coil. Alternator runs as a one wire, so no mods there. Basically I just needed a new throttle cable and it would have been running.

What I find shocking is who hasnt learned basic fuel injection if you have touched a car built in the last 20 years. I was with a friend of mine when she got her oil changed and the maybe 30 year old guy says that her carb needs a tune up :1. Im assuming these are the same guys trashing all the old hondas these days.

Old school vaccum advance honda dist or a jdm sohc zc carbed dist would of done the trick for basically free.

vacuum advance would be a pita, so would finding one of those dizzys. HEI module was like $20 from autozone
