Well i hadnt driven the Cord in about a month, and came home this weekend to take her out one more time before she gets parked untill may. heres a few pics of her in her storage location.





and of course it wouldnt be a day with my car without something going wrong. the window motor decided to crap out. it had been really slow for a while, and now it wont work at all.

 

simply thats is a nice car. as for me no winter driving at all. its been raining here in boardman and yesterday i was braking softly and my wheels locked up and i slid like i was on ice lol. too bad i cant store mine. its just gonna sit outside.

 

took her out for a drive today and she is crop dusting blue smoke.............[:@]

looks like instead of new rims in the spring it'll be a new motor

 

i knew i smelled something burning today.....lol jk. that bites. best of luck with what you do. which h22a did you have?

 

i have a a4, was planning on getting another block and building it anyways...........but was hoping to be able to still be able to drive the car while the other one was getting built.

 

thats too bad whys it burning oil so bad? as for an engine i did see a fully built one on ebay but cant find it now. it was seriously built too. high comp, sleeved, whatnot .

 

it passed comp and leak down with decent numbers, so i believe there is a sludge build up around the pistons so the oil rings arent working properly, have tried a few fixes for this and it got better for a short period but ended up getting worse in the end.

but couldnt know for sure unless the block was torn apart

 

hmm..it sounds weird. it wouldnt be a gasket problem anywhere would it? like you said though its probly hard to tell w/o tearing into the engine. tried restore?

ok sorry this is off topic but since im talkin to you i posted in engine and internal about needing a new screw for my ignition rotor. the current is stripped and needs extracted. do you know where i can find one its really bugging me sorry lol.

 

If its OEM you could get it through honda, if not i would just take it to home depot and try to find one that would work.
