new motor question
hey guys, im gettin my new(used) jdmb16a put in tomorow, i was just wondering what you guys do when you bring home your new hybrids? is there like a checklist? change oil etc. i wanna replace the spark plugs, does anyone know the size and a good make?

yeah, change all of the fluids (oil, coolant, tranny fluid) and oil filter, get new spark plugs (i recommend NGK v-power....BKR6E-11, get them from crappy tire for $7 for 2), spark plug wires (Honda), distributor cap and rotor (honda as well) and maybe a valve adjustment.

i would recommend changing the belt (timing belt, powet steering belt, alternator belt) while the engine is out of the car...the same goes for the water pump. Its much easier to change while the engine is out.
If you plan on changing the clutch now would be the time to do it as well.

the motor is going into my ride now, it came out of a running delsol and the belts look in good condition, however the motor will be in and running by the time i get it, so do you suggest a mechanic or something, does mr lube do good tune ups?

Its hard to tell if the timing belt is in good shape until it snaps. Save the headache and change it now.
