Default Hi I'm new!

Howdy yall!

Straight out of Texas, I came into the possession of an 120K mile '01 AP1. It's actually a car that's been in the family for a while and has been neglected for some time sitting in a garage, lonely, and never driven... ANYWAYS, I brought it over to my place, decided to address a few issues and do all the maintenance I could on it. Here's a pic:

Nice ride. It feels good to do all of the required maintenance in one shot like that because you have then set a new baseline to establish a timeline for future needs.

Hehe yup! The only real issues I had was a dried up accessory belt and leaking VTEC solenoid gaskets. The only other thing that made a huge difference in driving that I've noticed was replacing the shifter lever ball and pivot cover (along with the fluid change) and re-packed it with grease. Shifts feel nice and tight now compared to before.
