Hi does anyone have or know of some good pictures detailing the engine area of 97-2001 Preludes? I mean something like the chilton books. That help you locate certain compartments? Im not looking for anything in particular but it would be a good reference. Just a shot in the dark...thanks.

 

what exactly are you asking? How to clean your motor or something?

 

I ended up buying a chiltons book over the weekend. But it would be a good reference if it was posted. Yknow something showing the engine detailing the main parts.

 

You just bought your self a good fire starter. Take that Chiltons crap book back, and buy a Helms. The Helms is 100x better than Chilton

 

Really? My Chiltons was most valuble when I was doing my swap. What does the Helms have that makes it so great? just wondering

 

Helms has waaaaay more info about every little bolt on the Prelude and give torque specs of each bolt. Even gives you electrical diagram of the whole car. Trust me, even Honda Stealerships themselves use the Helms manual over Chiltons

 

Just go to http://www.hondahookup.com/manuals/ , register(it's free), and download the factory service manual...much better than helms, plus it's free

 

I have only had a chilton for the past 3 1/2 years since I got the car and didnt know a thing about cars. well if having the chilton as my only reference and I have re-built my entire engine twice and re-wired every wire in my car; yet only having the chilton as my only reference well than I guess your the only person on this thread that had to purchase the helms which ive never heard of from any dealership, and you say it makes things easier but I don't get it because chilton has torque spec's and electrical diagrams as well with ECU code numbers and fuse no. along with color coded info. so you say easy and my next thought is did the helms do the work for you??? because thats where the hardest part of mechanic's is... not reading. Hey but whatever works for you I guess me I like the chilton it has everything needed to do an entire engine or a complete electrical re-wiring but it's not in color and you do have to read everything... which means if you don't understand what your reading you shouldn't be working on the car(s) because chances are your going to blow off that step.
