Honda Civic EX

A backfire is when the ignition of fuel doesn't take place in the ignition/combustion chamber, it(a backfire) can take place in the intake or exhaust. It can be caused by a fuel to air ratio not being correct, also if the timing of the spark is not just right that could cause it to back fire. It could be running lean with not enough fuel and too much air, or could have too much fuel and not enough air. It could be because the intake valves are not shut when the combustion takes place, therefore the combustion would take place in the wrong spot. The most likely cause are from: 1. Incorrect timing, the timing issue could be caused by bad wiring/ or bad ignition. 2. Incorrect fuel to air ratio, bad fuel filter, low fuel pressure-caused by weak fuel pump. Most cars will have the same reason to backfire, as long as it's an internal combustion engine it shouldn't differ...

I did it in my 1994 DX Hatch by getting the instruments from a model that had a tach. The instrument cluster plugged right in. Now I have a tach along with a new speedo, and combined temp and gas guages. The wiring is already there and it works like a factory install. I think mine came from an EX, intended for an auto trans, but the lights showing the gear (between the temp and gas guages) simply don't come on. I imagine the same would work in any Civic from at least 1989 on, if not all. What year?

It depends on the motor and the amount of boost. Normal atmospheric pressure is 14.7 psi, so that's the condition your car is running in while naturally aspirated. If you add a turbo that provides 14.7 psi, for example, in theory you have doubled the power output of your engine. That won't actually be the case exactly because of losses to friction, heat etc....

For example.. if your car has 100hp and you add a turbo that provides 14.7 psi of boost, your car will now produce 200hp, theoretically. If your turbo puts out about 7psi (half atmospheric pressure), you will get a gain of hp totaling half of what your engine made normally, 150hp total in this case.

Radiator cost $120, and work is any where from $50-150,

i would do your self and get a radiator from pull a parts or salvage yard.

get 1 around $30-$50 bucks

usually just an oil change light. when you get your oil changed push your key into the little slot right by that light. it should go back to green. it usually goes on around every 3,000 miles, as a reminder for you to change your oil. goodluck!

The third brake light (high mount break light) for the ex series 06-07 civics is actually an LED assembly not a regular bulb. 9 times out of 10 the assembly will not need replaced and you may see on occasion that the light will still work but not consistently. So there is no need to pay the outrageously over priced fee Honda gives you for the break light. The problem is actually a short in the wiring on the PCB board of the assembly. In order to resolve this first tell Honda what a dumb design it is to integrate an LED break light assembly in 8in subwoofer housing. After you do that, locate the wiring harness in the trunk for the third break light and detach it. You will then need to put all the back seats down and remove the rear deck, I found it best to remove the bottom joints first and work my way up then left to right. You will see indents where you will need to push in and up in order to start getting the rear deck to give be careful with this portion as I actually cracked mine slightly since it's just plastic and it's a little tight which requires gentle man handling. If it does crack there it's really not a big deal since once the seats are up as normal you can't see this area. Once you have the deck removed unscrew the black subwoofer

bracket on the bottom of the deck. Then remove the screws that hold the LED assembly in place. You will see the solder joints on the belly of the PCB board. For the most part all that needs to be done is a reflowing

of the old solder. I just added a little extra new solder to get the old solder hot enough to liquefy and then settle. Once the joints are re-soldered

I would suggest adding some electronic silicone to the joints or foam under the PCB board and plastic assembly to provide cushion from the damaging vibrations that this assembly clearly cannot handle. (Maybe even to both) Be sure to plug the assembly directly into the wire harness to make sure it's working properly and jiggle it around. If all is well reassemble, save yourself $180, and go pass inspection. Peace. (YouTube

has some reliable videos in relation to this all too common problem.)

yes. its a good swap but expensive. you will need a transmission ecu and alot of other things. it would be cheaper and i think better just to rebuild and turbo or supercharge your d16y8 engine that comes stock

"Blowing" Fuses ABSOLUTELY NOT !!!!! Fuses and Circuit Breakers are safety devices designed and installed in electrical circuits TO PROTECT the conductors [wires] from short circuits and overload conditions which can cause extreme overheating which can result in damage to the conductors, and worse, the possibility of a FIRE which could destroy the vehicle. When a fuse, and its replacements, repeatedly blow, is an indication of an UNSAFE CONDITION in that circuit. To install a larger fuse would invite damage to the wiring and an electrical system fire. The proper "fix" is for a qualified technician, who knows what he/she's doing, to: * troubleshoot the circuit, * find and identify the defect, and * make proper repair [s], BEFORE replacing the fuse again [with the properly sized fuse for the circuit].

The ignition coil is inside the distributor....

IF its anything like my 98 ex, your best option to do it yourself like i did is to first remove the door panel. then remove the screw that keeps the front track in place. After you have this screw removed you will need to get the window as high up as you can without pushing it too hard.

Then put your hand on the track and reach up as far as you can go. Next you need to use a finger to spread the track open where your hand is, and slowly use the window button to move the window down.

As the window gets near where your finger is you need to push the rubber out enough so that the window can slide back into the track. After you get the window on the inside of the rubber up top move it down more and keep sure with your fingers that it stays inside the rubber track until you reach the bottom. Then screw the track back in the opposite of the way you took it out. Notice the hole for the screw is oblong allowing room for adjustment.

You want to adjust it as far towards the back of the car as you can without putting excess pressure on the door and making it harder for the window motor to push it up.

If you have ever had a seat belt that was all twisted the wrong way and you folded the belt in half while pulling it through the upper loop by the roof to get it to flip over to the correct side the concept is pretty similar to what you are doing here. Simply forcing pushing one of the rubber guide edges out forcing the window to go over it and back into track.

It took me a few tries the first time but you will get the hang of it.

Good luck!!!

The 2006 Honda Civic Coupe wiper blade sizes are 28" drivers and 25" passenger side wiper blades with fairly specialized attachments. See sources and related links below for more information. Since there are over 22 different wiper arm attachments, do not buy wipers just by length only. Be sure to lookup exact wiper blade part numbers by vehicle make, model and year for the brand wiper you decide to purchase. This ensures correct length AND correct attachment.

Contact crutchfield radio / electronics they will provide you with a free wiring harness when you purchase the radio thru them which will allow you to connect your radio without effecting the cars other electrical systems.

the 1996 to 1998 Honda civic has the keyless entry module built into the factory radio, you will have to wire the factory radio in-line with your aftermarket radio, most people then hide the factory radio under the center console. your other options would be to go without keyless entry or install an aftermarket unit.

The power-relay box is located on the left underside of the steering wheel

next to the fuse box. When the power relay malfunctions, your car may not start.

Dude it is an econobox not a racecar. Stickers and a shopping cart handle don't make it fast.

About as fast as a shopping cart can go downhill

I suspect that the linkage between the gas pedal and the throttle is worn. Check the cable that connects the two.

The codes of up to three transmitters can be stored into the keyless receiver unit memory. (If a fourth code is stored, the code that was input first will be erased.)

NOTE: It is important to maintain the time limits between the steps. Make sure the doors, the hood and the tailgate are closed.

1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).

2. Within 1 to 4 sec., press the transmitter lock or unlock button with the transmitter aimed at the keyless receiver unit built into the power window master switch.

3. Within 1 to 4 sec., turn the ignition switch OFF.

4. Within 1 to 4 sec., turn the ignition switch ON (II).

5. Within 1 to 4 sec., press the transmitter lock or unlock button with the transmitter aimed at the keyless receiver unit built into the power window master switch.

6. Within 1 to 4 sec., turn the ignition switch OFF.

7. Within 1 to 4 sec., turn the ignition switch ON (II).

8. Within 1 to 4 sec., press the transmitter lock or unlock button with the transmitter aimed at the keyless receiver unit built into the power window master switch.

9. Within 1 to 4 sec., turn the ignition switch OFF.

10. Within 4 sec., turn the ignition switch ON (II).

11. Within 1 to 4 sec., press the transmitter lock or unlock button with the transmitter aimed at the keyless receiver unit built into the power window master switch.

12. Confirm you can hear the sound of the door lock actuators within 1 to 4 sec., then push the transmitter lock or unlock button again, or the code will not be stored.

13. Within 10 sec., aim the transmitters (up to two additional ones) whose codes you want to store in the keyless receiver, and press the transmitter lock or unlock buttons.

14. Confirm that you can hear the sound of the door lock actuators after each transmitter code is stored.

15. Turn the ignition switch OFF, and remove the key.

Confirm proper operation with the transmitters.

NOTE: Once the programming mode is entered, the remote button must be pressed a second time. If the button is not pressed, or if the ignition switch is turned OFF, the programming for all remotes will be cancelled.

Brake Fluid Dot 3

Note: Brake and Clutch fluid are the same

Look at the sticker on the timing belt cover. If it's intact and its the original, it should say it. well what year car do u have?? well depending on the year of the car they where all SOHC until probably the late 90's........then they might of made them DOHC!!

How do I check the transmission fluid on a 1983 Honda Civic 1500DX

Look at the radiator, it should be in the front. It has a cap on it, take it off and you can put coolant in side.

Check the related link, I found a picture of the diagram posted on the inside of the engine compartment.

Your next best bet would be a Haynes or Chiltons manual.
