#65 of 98 Re: Am I getting screwed?? [addtothehustle] by tpark Jul 22, 2008 (8:56 am)
Replying to: addtothehustle (Jul 21, 2008 4:52 pm) I recently replaced my CV Halfshaft on the passenger side, which is the housing for the wheel bearing, and that cost me about $240. I have a 1990 Integra LS. That should be all that needs to be done in regards to the noise, which should sound like a popping or grinding. You are looking at around $250 to $300 dollars depending on where you go

#67 of 98 exhaust smoke by jimbob1975 Aug 01, 2008 (9:56 pm)
Recently my 98 Integra LS (see post #58) began smoking upon acceleration under a load ( e.g. pulling away from a light). It does not appear to do so either at idle or at a steady speed, nor is the inside of the tailpipe oily; but it does have a lot of soot in it. Would I be looking at a major repair and if so; given the car's age and mileage, should I get the repair done even if it means getting a new engine?
#68 of 98 Timing? by hornzrul83 Aug 19, 2008 (7:18 pm)
Hi. I Own A 95 Integra LS that i just actually finished working on and finally got running. Well sort of running. I really need help to figure out what is wrong with my car now. The car idles to low and kinda rough. But when i drive it and as long as im giving the car gas or if its in gear it drives fine. But heres my problem. When i go to shift and push in the clutch, my rpms drop down to almost zero and the car wants to die. I have to give the car gas just to keep the rpms up and for the car not to die. Eventually though i cant catch them and the needle drops to zero and the car dies. If anyone knows or has any solution to my problem. I would appreciate all the help. Thx.
#69 of 98 blown timing belt by reefer007 Aug 21, 2008 (10:49 am)
I have a 91 2 dr integra that I have blown the timing belt on I have the valve cover off and am in the process of changing it but I want to know if I have caused any catastrophic damage to my engine. Also how do I check the valves and the pistins for damage . And if damaged is the motor junk and I would be better off just finding another engine to put in it or can the head be rebuilt? thanks
#70 of 98 1991 Acura Integra LS dies when i push the clutch in by npkollman Sep 23, 2008 (2:21 pm)
I do not know what happened. I was driving home from school today and i came up to a stop light. So i pushed in the clutch about 100ft from the intersection. The car died. All the lights in the dash came on. This has happened before and i thought it was the heat of the day. i live in the desert. but it wasnt hot today. it would not start back up for about 10minutes. I had to push it. you cant bump start it and you cant turn it over. it just doesnt start. any help would be much appreciated. i do not know about cars or anything so try and explain as best as you can. thanks.
#71 of 98 Re: Hi I got a question about 2 diferent engine types [drbyers] by whobodym Oct 11, 2008 (9:54 am)
Replying to: drbyers (Apr 02, 2007 6:34 am) aren't you guys forgetting about the fact that engine in '94-'01 Integra faces left, and the '02-'07 RSX's faces right? (where the belts and pulleys are) This sounds like an extremely messy change. As an aside, does anyone know how the design engineers ever made this choice, to change engine orientation? It can't have to do with RH and LH drive, since both cars were designed to be built both ways. I'm a Mechanical Engineer but it's beyond me why a car company would make this change.

Hey guys, I need some help. Yesterday I was driving my 90 GS when without warning she died. First I tried to accelerate and there was no response so when I pulled th the shoulder the choked and will no longer start (still cranks tho).   Any ideas of what could be wrong? THANKS!!!!

#73 of 98 reefer007 timing belt by brettl Oct 18, 2008 (11:35 am)
Do you know which engine you have in your 91? I recently did my nephew's 90 hatchback with a B18A1 engine, and turned out when the belt snapped, he had bent a few valves but no damage to the pistons. As I'm not familiar with the 91 & which engines it might have, IF yours has the B18A1 engine, I can help you thru the process. As near as I can tell from the Haynes manual I've used (covers 90 thru 93 Integra and 91 thru 95 Legend), there were only two used in those model years, the B18A1 which is a 1.8L DOHC and the B17A1 VTEC, which is a 1.7L DOHC with variable valve timing & electronic control, which will have "VTEC" 'bossed'(raised lettering) right on the cam cover.   Brett.

Replying to: ksgs (Oct 17, 2008 6:16 am) As always in such a case, check to see whether or not you're getting spark at the plugs, then whether you've got fuel going to the rail, then whether or not your injectors are pulsing. What makes you think that it 'choked?'   Brett
