nymphomaniac:
Gazzuzz, does the 02 spacer work as the catalyst would have or it just “deceives” the car into thinking the catalyst works? Why didn’t you fix a replacement catalyst? Just curious.

Burchester:
My car consume to much fuel. 3000 naira fuel will just finished in a day. Honda accord 2010.

GAZZUZZ:


Setting out a repair plan.

Some invasive jobs on the list will render vehicle temporarily disabled until work is completed, those jobs will be shifted to last so we can get more work done with a functionally running engine in case drive tests are required .


We will work in this order.

Items 7, 4, 1, 2, 5, 3, 6 then finally 8.

Let's start.

GAZZUZZ:


Taking out the VTEC actuator and solenoid has disrupted the repair plan set out.

I will be draining the Engine engine oil to inspect for metal shredding or particles, then replacing all seals relating to the VTEC system. Will also replace the pressure switch and actuator (even though I am sure they are working fine) I'll rather just work with new (Toks) parts free from previous abuse. Will try and get new harnesses for the parts .

Factory reset things

Sir, I hail thee.

Inception:


Request that he revisit the rear diff.

Honda is kind of picky in the kind of fluid it uses for its rotating parts.

GAZZUZZ:
Update on catalytic converter.

Installing spacers was becoming a Herculean task with manifolds still attached to the engine., So we decided to bring them down.

With the catalytic converter down we noticed catalytic converter material in the sensor 1 areas of both manifolds.

Further inspections reveals a disintegration of the catalytic converter. It's a good thing we caught it this early , would have been fatal to the engine and work being done.

We will gut both banks out and keep the contents for the client when he comes to pick up.

The O2 sensors have been literarily glued to the manifolds and would not unscrew without a little persuasion.

Crocif:


Totally speechless.

It is sad the vehicle was certified roadworthy just a week or two ago.

Baba, I am seriously in your debt. This service CANNOT be free. We will need to discuss billing at some point.

This is some serious work.

Thank you.

Now I am really worried about the state of health for that engine.
The catalyst element has already started disintegrating.
I was wondering, does this engine have EGR? If yes then engine may have to be dismantled ( or a scope used) to inspect the cylinder walls.
I would have said intake valves too but thank God there is no engine misfire.

He should be prepared for a higher exhaust note( growl).. If the client was Heavenlybang I would have said you have answered his prayers

P.S. The heat applied to remove the oxygen sensors may end up ruining them. Prepare for a replacement.

GAZZUZZ:
I remember the first time I drove the car, I mentioned that turning the steering results in a drop in RPM instead of a rise which will compensate for the new load.

Well there lies the problem.

Power steering pressure switch not connected .

Harness is damaged .
