Well done videos i have a recommendation don't oil the gasket before installation and clean the block surface with something i use carb or brake clean and emerycloth the surface should be as clean as possible the only gasket i even put oil on the oil filter gasket. If you still have a leak after that check the egr plate on the back of the engine below that valve it also leaks and is not easy to repair and lastly the power steering hose es have o rings that leak also at the connection connection to the pump.i have done many of these and that why im letting you know you may have 2 more leaks in the not so soon future i let my clients know so when they don't come back complaining the leak ijust fixed is still leaking or the You fixed the wrong thing ! This applies to the 1.8 l engine only hope this is helpful toyour viewers

Just did this job yesterday and i want to thank you for your amazing and well detailed video. This was my experience. Removing the cowl cover and the panel under is easy, ive done it over 10 times. Youll definitely need a few flashlights to see what you need to move or remove. Definitely remove the PCV hose and loosen the injector bracket thing, they are in the way and give you more room to work. Removing the Solenoid was really easy, no need to pry it with anything just push and wiggle. Just dont lose or drop the bolts , if you are prone to losing bolts just order extra ones. Also make sure you have different sized ratchets, my main one did not fit so i had to use another one that kind of curves a bit. Now here is the BIGGIE, Removing the old old gasket is really really really hard, PLEASE buy a pick set and a strong knife, but dont do what i did, i picked at it with a flathead screw driver and a bunch of other tools and the gasket was breaking little by little but i damaged the solenoid edges by doing so, the gasket wasnt even close to coming out, i took it inside my apartment and tried different things and nothing, what did it though was these large scissors i had that were strong and had a pointy edge and i managed to pick at the same spot until it finally came up , the gasket was like solid cement After applying the new gasket i used HONDA BOND to fill in the alumimum parts that i broke off the solenoid and it worked. No leaks.

I have two gaskets on my solenoid that I replaced. Purchased it from Autozone and it came with 3 gaskets. The second (smaller) gasket I replaced by unbolting 3 bolts was very brittle and had a crack in it. It’s called Dorman Engine Variable Timing Solnd Gasket 917-173. I also replaced the camshaft oil seal cap and EGR valve gasket while I was in there. All the parts cost about 30 bucks. 👍🏾

So just for kicks, I’ll tell you what happened to my 2007 Honda Element SC. I started hearing some steering noise, so I added power steering fluid and looked around a little inside there. I didn’t see anything going wrong, so I went through a period of months of adding power steering fluid. (I know I’m an idiot. My oldest son was too busy to check it out). The bottom line: the fluid was for Hondas, but it was also a stop leak. Apparently it ruined my entire power steering rack. I took the car to a new mechanic who ended up having to fix or replace lots of things due to the spewing of the power steering fluid all over the place. $2500 later, and my car is in great shape again, and I am no longer waiting for my son to do my car work. As an aside, the mechanic happens to be the father of my youngest son‘s fiancé. Small world!

I've gotten to the part where you removed the 3 10mm bolts to take the thing off. The problem I'm facing is that no matter what force i can put on the bolts, they won't budge. I'm on the line of stripping 2 10mm sockets. Yes im pulling making sure im moving lefty loosey, the same direction you're doing. Update, it's off: If you still can't get them off what i did is get a swivel adapter (3/8ths→3/8ths) and a fresh 10mm. Then make your ratchet longer by either grafting something to it or just a longer ratchet. Used my screwdriver taped up to my ratchet, even then i should had to put alot of force i thought my screwdriver was gonna snap.

While doing this project, you should take the time to check and replace the PCV VALVE. When it fails, excess pressure in the crank case will cause leaks. This seal is particularly susceptible to pressure leaks.

I think it was your video that prompted me to replace the PCV VALVE on both. Big improvement. The Accord has 179,000 miles and was using oil and not running right. The Ep3 has 120,000, and replacing it improved overall performance, MPG sound. Thank you again for the great content. 👍

This is my next job, but at 2:54 be careful with this, in my 06 civic the washerfluid hose is not as long as the one in this video, so if this is the first time you remove this cover, be careful as to not pull on it or youll break it, in fact dont even turn the cover upside down if you can already feel a pull from the hose. Mines doesnt even allow me to turn it upside down like how he did in this video. Ive taken this cover off many many times

It's oil and not red transmission fluid even though it's dripping off the transmission. Any ideas where that may be coming from? It is quite a bit, if I wipe it off at night the next morning it's already dripping again even after leaving the car sit for a couple weeks.

I’m gonna have to disagree with you, here’s why, using a torque wrench assures proper and even torque not to mention keeping you from breaking a bolt off in the head, if you’re a seasoned technician you can get away with not using a torque wrench, however most DIY’ers should use and own a torque wrench, here is a video on an affordable torque wrench kzbin.info/www/bejne/faClloOiqLaGj7csi=XZOyrerUWYaVXTun

After 30 year of working on cars i dont need to use any fuklin torq wrench unless im installing a cylinder head. I see too many bolts that are way over tightened with a so called torq wrench. @@dannysdiygarage

I worked on my VTEC Solenoid , followed along with the videos, and the power steering o rings..and there still seems to be traces of leak at the same spot by the solenoid. Any tips? Would sealants work?

Check the oil pressure switch and PCV, best to clean the area off, change your oil add die and use a black light to find the leak

Why did you smear oil all over the gasket meant to keep oil from traversing it? You really should have taken the time to clean the mating surface.

So replace the weak Honda seal with another weak seal. I'd put some Honda bond around the new gasket. What's happened to Honda
@dannysdiygarage
@dannysdiygarage Жыл бұрын
I’m not sure what you mean when you write weak seal, the rubber gasket lasted 14 years, yes I bought another OEM gasket and no I didn’t use any other type of sealer, this last another 14 years, appreciate your comment
@metzmatu8409
@metzmatu8409 10 ай бұрын
That seal is a rubber ring with filter. If the filter is clog and higher pressure in that cavity will force the oil tp leak out. Isn't it design that way rather then no oil flow/pressure to the VTEC mechanism.

Help please! I replaced the gasket and when bolting it all back together 1 of the 3 bolts broke. What can I do to remove the broken bolt? With only 2 bolts it’s leaking slightly. Am I screwed?

You just need to remove it, I’m guessing it’s not in there very tightly, try a small punch and use penetrating spray
