Default It's AALLLIIIVVVVVVVEEEEEEEE!!!!

HELL YEAH!! Quite the load off my mind! Went back to tinkering with the accord today... I didnt even do anything, and the motor wasnt seized up anymore... it actually turned over when I tried to start it. It sounded, at first, like there was no compression... but no other funny clanking or clunking. Persistance paid off, and eventually it started to spit and sputter... and came to life.

Other than a weird new whistling noise from the intake, it seems as smooth and normal as always. I seriously thought it was locked right up... the tow guy/mechanic thought so as well.

Hey, im not complaining........

Guess you didnt know the motor as well as you thought.

Glad its not locked up, so you are going to need to find a different excuse in order to do an engine swap.
