No Spark Diagnosis (Honda) – EricTheCarGuy

Posted on by

It’s been a while, I’ve missed you. In this little tutorial I’m covering the basics of diagnosing a Honda ignition system. I had some technical difficulties while doing this one (I forgot to press record on a couple of occasions and missed a couple of shots) and didn’t get all that I had hoped in this video. In particular I was hoping to show the use of a test light to do this diagnosis but didn’t get all the footage necessary so I’ll go back and shoot that at a later date. I’m hoping there is enough information here to get you started in understanding and diagnosing your ignition system so that you don’t have to buy stuff you don’t need trying to fix a problem. Here is a link to a place where you might find the tool I used in the video www.google.com I want to give a shout out to Greg Insco who donated his car for this video, he’s trying to get on some show called Survivor next season and I helped him with his application video. You can check him and the video out via the link below. I just checked the link and I see that he hasn’t posted it yet but says he will on the 28th of December 2009 so keep checking back on that. www.youtube.com As always you can find me at EricTheCarGuy.com, as I said in the video there are new things coming to the site for 2010 so keep checking back to check those out. – Click below and Stay Dirty Visit me at EricTheCarGuy.com ericthecarguy.com Visit EricTheCarGuy Forum www.ericthecarguy.com Visit my Facebook Page: www.facebook.com –Stay …

Replacing a Serpentine Belt – EricTheCarGuy I’ve had more than one request for this, the other day I had one come in and was happy to make the video for it. This is a fairly easy one compared to some that I have had to deal with, just work smart and have the right tools and you will be fine. Remember the longer the tool the better the leverage and that you should check to make sure you have the correct belt before you try and install it. – Click below and Stay Dirty Visit me at EricTheCarGuy.com ericthecarguy.com Visit EricTheCarGuy Forum www.ericthecarguy.com Visit my Facebook Page: www.facebook.com – Stay dirtyDue to factors beyond the control of EricTheCarGuy, it cannot guarantee against unauthorized modifications of this information, or improper use of this information.

How To Replace A Window Run Channel ( 97 Honda Accord) – EricTheCarGuy www.ericthecarguy.com You would normally be doing this if you had an issue with wind noise or a problem with the window going up and down that did not involve the regular/motor assembly. This is pretty much the same procedure for doing a window motor/regulator assembly, there are just a couple of extra steps you take to remove the motor after removing the window. – Click below and Stay Dirty Visit me at EricTheCarGuy.com ericthecarguy.com Visit EricTheCarGuy Forum www.ericthecarguy.com Visit my Facebook Page: www.facebook.com –Stay dirty ETCG Due to factors beyond the control of EricTheCarGuy, it cannot guarantee against unauthorized modifications of this information, or improper use of this information.

How to Replace Honda Captive Rotors – EricTheCarGuy

This was a request from a while ago and I’m happy to get to it now. I did a bunch of video on this car (1990 Honda Accord LX) and have lots more to show you in future episodes. Honda captive rotors are a pain to say the least. For the most part you can take them somewhere that is equipped with an on-the-car brake lathe to have them machined when they get warped but in this cast they were too thin and damaged for machining and needed to be replaced. I have to admit that this job does not always go this easy, it usually requires a lot more effort, some pain, and perhaps a little blood to accomplish but I guess it was trying to behave for the camera on this day. Astute views may notice that I switched sides for the video, that’s because I ended up replacing the wheel bearing on the side that I started with and did the disassembly a bit differently as a result, good eye if you spotted that. I’ll be posting more videos from this car in future weeks so keep an eye out if you have one of these that needs some work. – Click below and Stay Dirty Visit me at EricTheCarGuy.com ericthecarguy.com Visit EricTheCarGuy Forum www.ericthecarguy.com Visit my Facebook Page: www.facebook.com –Stay dirty ETCG Due to factors beyond the control of EricTheCarGuy, it cannot guarantee against unauthorized modifications of this information, or improper use of this information.

I would like to once again stress that it would be more than a worthy investment to take the vehicle that you’re considering buying to a professional that specializes in the vehicle that you’re looking to buy as this would be your best insurance against any issues you might find yourself stuck with after the sale. – Click below and Stay Dirty Visit me at EricTheCarGuy.com ericthecarguy.com Visit EricTheCarGuy Forum www.ericthecarguy.com Visit my Facebook Page: www.facebook.com – Stay dirty ETCG Due to factors beyond the control of EricTheCarGuy, it cannot guarantee against unauthorized modifications of this information, or improper use of this information.
