It's ALiVE!!!
 

Just thought I'd post up a teaser thread. For those of you who don't remember me, I used to be the whore-in-chief of the 92+ Civic forum.

Well, after about a year of downtime and an arduous head rebuild, I finally started up the shitbox today. Surprisingly enough, it didn't smoke out the neighborhood, and it started with little drama. Still a bit left to do: track down the cause of my loping idle, tighten up t-belt, re-check my valve clearances, check and re-bleed my brakes... But this is the most progress I've made in months and I just wanted to gloat.

Should have compression numbers followed by (embarrassing) dyno numbers within a month or so. :oh:

Gotta start somewhere, man :oh:. Good to hear you're back in it. Time under the hood keeps most of us outta trouble.:chuckles:
