#50 of 55 Re: 2007 GX Civic Sounds like it needs a Valve Job [bank1avp] by hondagxsales Mar 15, 2007 (5:33 pm)
Replying to: bank1avp (Feb 06, 2007 10:57 am) Just curious about your Suburban sounding like a deisel. Is it because of compression issues. The GX is 12.5:1 because of the 130 octane. A lower compression could make the Bi Fuel motor rattle if compression was left at say 9:1, as it was set up at the factory for gasoline. Replies to this message: bank1avp (Mar 18, 2007 6:53 pm)

#53 of 55 I bricked my GX. Excess flow valve? by ignis_fatuus Oct 14, 2007 (10:10 pm)
Okay, I just bricked my civic GX. I closed the manual valve and ran the line "dry" by idling the engine until it stalled. I was diagnosing a fuel gauge peculiarity. After I reopened the valve the fuel gauge stayed at empty with the empty light blinking. The car refuses to turn over, and it won't even come out of park with the ignition on. Is there an excess flow valve I might have tripped with the transient surge into the empty line? How do I reset it? I think I located where it lives: behind the rear seat inside a rubber boot. Anyone with any ideas to reset, or must I tow to the dealership? Replies to this message: ignis_fatuus (Oct 15, 2007 6:30 am)

Replying to: ignis_fatuus (Oct 14, 2007 10:10 pm) Update: I had an epiphany last night that I should try cycling the power. So after disconnecting and reconnecting the battery, all is well. Hmmm...

Replying to: giorgi (Jan 31, 2008 3:32 pm) Giorgi - did you send your injector to Accurate Injector to have it serviced? What was the result?
