I hope his seals and gaskets hold when the oil pressure pushes close to 100 psi.

I wish xviper lived by me so he could show me how to do some of this stuff. I'm pretty much a novice when it comes to engines.

The manual is writen by the manufacturer(honda) and distributed by Helm. This is the best manual you can buy, it is used by professional mechanics. They cost about $80

I agree with Xviper on the maintenance points - Honda does not care if you get 75k out of your engine/tranny/diff or 400k. They want you to get 3y/36k, whichever comes first m- that is the warranty period they are on the hook for. They also want to be able to show low maintenance costs, hence the 7500 oil service is "normal". That is bunk. Even driven 100% on the highway, the oil will become acidic and the additives depleted significantly by 7500 miles, unless you are using a top synoil.
