The lock nut lower ball joint deal is just odd, I'll have to keep an eye out for that in my future projects.




oil consumption is about a quart a month :/ but I dont think warranty applies at 170k. however its not fouling plugs, so iI think ts going somewhere else other than through the cylinders

the local honda dealer just built a new complex, and all parts got the 3x treatment. The power steering o-ring was 75 cents three years ago, $2.45 now. the valve cover bolts are $7 list, $21 at the dealer. even the valve adjustment, $700 does not figure to 4.5 hours labor. they are just robbing people here.
