I have a 91 prelude SI automatic with 4ws. After turning it on and letting it sit for 5-10 minutes it seems to heat right up and then cut out, once it cuts out it doesn't seem like it wants to start back up. First i thought it could be having trouble getting fuel, but after checking the lines it came back all clear. It seems like the cooling fans don't turn on. The thermostat gauge and fuel gauge don't actually work so i cant get a clear reading on it to see if it is heating up. The radiator seems to be fine with no leaks and it seems like it is holding pressure. I have hard wired the cooling fan to the battery with a clip so i can undo them and not have them constantly on. They work when plugged it when i take it for a small drive it cuts out after bout 5-10 minutes of driving then i can hear what sounds like the fuel gargling back up the pips to the fuel tank and when i put fuel in it it feels up the fuel hose then slowly goes down into the tank it could take me 20-30 minutes just to put 10 letters in it. Does anyone know what could be cause of it cutting out.

 

This time-capsule Honda Prelude sold at a record price recently. I wonder how did the original owner put so little miles on it over the last 27 years. But still took the effort to garage it and maintain it in near showroom condition. Honda made such cool cars in the 80s and 90s. After the NSX and S2000, I think clean CRXs and Integra Type R are going to be the next 'modern classic' Hondas which snaptube vidmate will go up in price.

 

K series is simply too tall to fit. Even the motor in it sits at a fairly wicked angle since the hood is so low. The h22 is the swap to do if you're going to swap it. From your description things aren't sounding great for the motor thats in it. But that's probably something to figure out late
