I fixed all the junk that was wrong with the civic... (well.. mostly...)

last weekend i took my head off to replace my headgasket, while i was in there i replaced the water pump, timing belt, thermostat, did a tune up (plugs and wires)... had some set backs.. and wasn't able to finish it up...

but as of this saturday morning got it running!!!

i'm pretty proud of myself.. i had some help along the way, but for the most part did the work myself.. and am def not a mechanic... it's running just fine now though and it just feels good to accomplish a task like that...

i saved myself quite a bit of money i feel like.. even though it took up quite a bit of my time..

next project is the clutch... but i don't think i'm gonna tackle that without someone who knows what they are doing.. and i've gotta get some brakes on her... from there it's gonna be all cosmetic work.....


ah, self accomplishment... it's just a great high!!!




btw, thanks to everyone on here who gave me advice/tips along the way.. it's really appreciated guys!!!
