1994 honda crv jump timimg

[oriax123]

Hi there! New here, I have a question for you guys!

I have a 1993 Honda Prelude Si 4WS DOHC 2.2L with a F22B JDM Engine that came with the car when I bought it, my question is would I be able to use any of these turbo kits with this engine?

Or what would I need in order to convert any from the links above to make it fit and work with my engine?

We're not here to tell you if certain upgrades or hot rod parts will work on a certain type of vehicle or not. This forum is for people who have questions about repairs or problems with their cars. Why don't you just ask the people selling those items if any of them will work on your car or not.

Ok how about thism

My car has been leaking coolant and dont know if its the water pump that needs to be replaced or if its a cable. How or where can I find the leak so I can repair this leak.

Thanks

Ok, this is another one of those 'common sense' questions. How do you find a leak? Look for it!!

Since I can't see the car in person, I can't tell you where it's leaking from. You will have to nose around in the engine compartment and determine where the coolant is coming from. If you've got a cooling system pressure tester, you can pump up the system which should make the area the leak is coming from more prevalent.

I own a 1988 Honda Accord lx; 2.0 sohc, carb, 5spd,... that cranks but doesn't start. I've ruled out everything but the mechanical and ignition timing. I've never adjusted the timing, and I can't afford a mechanic;
Can anyone please walk me through both how to set the mechanical and ignition timing for my engine?

Thank You.

I am sorry but ignition timing, as in setting with a timing light, doesn't just change by itself. Your distributor can move clockwise or counterclockwise by loosening the distributor mounting bolts and twist the distributor so that the timing marks line up using a timing light. But... unless your distributor came loose your timing shouldn't have changed and need to be set. More than likely something else is wrong not letting you engine to run.

Yes the timing belt can be off. you can check it by bringing cylinder #1 to TDC on the compression stroke. Using the timing marks on the flywheel. then with the timing belt upper cover removed (you have to take the valve cover off) check the timing marks on the cam gear.

if the belt is off, marks don't line up, I would recommend replacing the belt and the water pump while you are there. It's a big job. about four hours for a "B" level mechanic. and you have to make sure you get the correct tension on the belt when you are done. Be careful if you haven't done it before. mistakes could be costly.

My 1994 Crv motor jumped timing and on inspection it turned out the distributer?(black electrically box behind the timing belt.area) was melted so I replaced it and it was running grea t for 1day drove about 200miles and it jumps timing again won't start at all again what could be causing this to happen I. Have heard I could bend a valve or piston when it jumps time I Need this car for work can't ruin the motor also is there a way. To get the trouble codes without a code scanner

what do you mean jumped time? are you saying you take the timing cover off and line up the timing belt marks and they no longer line up? and what did your distributor look like? How did it come to melt? it should be on the opposite side of the engine from the timing belt. It is where all your spark plugs wires go to. I need more information about what is happening and what you have done.

The distributor ?is clearly not the right name it was a black box behind the timing belt area I was told it jumped time the first time but I am pretty sure itwas the black box that looked melted when it broke down both times it was when I shifted into 4th gear it kinda coughed and died and would not start again.

[imthemomx6]

No the timing marks didn't line up they were to the left on a slant

if the timing belt alignment is off, don't continue to drive or even crank the engine over. Take the timing cover off and see if you can find a reason for the belt to jump time. Worn belt, tensioner not keeping the belt tight or maybe the water pump has a problem. have you replaced the timing belt?

what was the black box that melted?
