its just a sand down no paint require

 

So whats the solution if you have " Rattle when in neutral / Rattle stops when clutch is pressed"????

 

First thought would be throw-out bearing.

 

what should i do if my car tail whips when i take off it usually starts after i hit second gear

 

had a question my clutch feels weirdk when im idling no gear it fine depressees fine no problem bt when im driving shifting to all gears t changes lilke ift feels like if it is hitting sumting almost like a brak pulsation bt less. any suggestions cause its annoying me i hope its not a clutch problem

 

Thanks a lot sir, I'm having trouble shifting when the car is cold, even though I give it 5-8 min every time I start the car in the morning.

 

Anything about on Tachometer not working?

 

this morning when i started up and car and released the clutch it made a "grinding sound". same noise a starter makes. any ideas whats the problem?

 

Since some here are against Mobil 1 Synthetic, I think I may join that group. Just used it for the first time in my new S2K (new to me), and it's drinking a quart per week. I tend to drive spirited a lot, and stay in VTEC quite a bit. The car doesn't burn oil (no blue smoke, compression test is good). No oil leaks anywhere. Does this happen to everyone who uses M1 Synthetic? If so, what is the best oil for this car that won't "disappear" weekly? Thanks for the info ....

 

Dunno about everyone, but it's pretty common, especially for AP1s. I've spent a lot of time researching that problem and I think it actually has more to do with the PCV valve than Mobil1 (although Mobil1 supposedly eats up timing chain tensioners). My research concluded that AMSOIL is the best motor oil for our cars (and probably the most expensive, too unfortunately) and that upgrading to an AP2 (2004/2005 model) valve cover with the revised PCV valve design should reduce oil consumption.
