I was going to do the check next weekend, it's a good bit of work to tear down the front of the motor, and I wanted to do it at my dad's work in Houston. Bolt loosened today, but the car was also running poorly yesterday too. You're supposed to need a breaker bar to get the bolt out... I didn't even have to try hard with a ratchet... Bolt had some broken threads too.

The crank ain't too bad, I'll be able to easily repair it. And, once the cams get back in time with the crank, this sucker is going to be A LOT more fun to drive.

Also, I missed working on a RWD car, so much easier to work on than the CRX!
