1. People that abuse a engine like this should be forced to walk.How much effort does it take just to check the oil duh. If you can't check your oil you shouldn't be driving ; ) Oil is cheap engines are expensive.

2. So much knowledge. Never knew that you could patch up a warped head with just a new gasket and right torque specs

3. That first engine must have made quite an awful racket before it passed.

4. Having done service on a near identical model of the second engine , it’s a nice feeling recognizing little quirks and shapes specific to them.

5. You should do a series on the engine from your sons car and rebuild it

6. Engine stands? Eric don't need no stinking engine stands!

7. I used to torque valve cover bolts with each oil change. It helped prevent those pesky D-series oil leaks.

8. Can you tell me what the problem is with the following symptoms: slow coolant lose, engine have light back fire when accelerating, misfiring, not overheating, no oil in coolant reserve tank, it's a 2002 4runner with 190k? Interested in buying it to work on.

9. I will be doing this type of inspection and analysis on the original K20a3 that came in my Civic Si Hatchback , I have the manufacturers factory service manual on hand and will try follow the manufacturers procedures for overhauling this engine and also borrow some knowledge from these awesome videos.

10. Always enjoy your video's Eric!

11. holy cow! how did all those crap got into the machine? I think somebody who hates the owner of this car did this.

12. Eric is diagnosing a messed up thrown engine.

13. The owner of this car did not change the oil since he/she bought it.

14. Eric, let us know if you are able to recycle this crap.

15. Yeah, people extending oil change intervals are usually the type that put the cheapest oil and "extend" its life, cuz they don't want to spend money on the good stuff.

    P.S Good stuff or cheap stuff, I never go more than 10 000 km or 6500 miles. For cheap oil – halve this number.

16. Eric, when you save those small components, do you clean them then store together tagging the bag, for example, with car make, model, year, engine? Or do you store all keyways together, shoulder bolts together, etc.?

17. CEO of Honda “ ellik how u my fren, can re haf our ciwic keyway bits back please sensay?
    Eric “ ok .. $25 a shot

18. Can s car with low compression runs good on a fwy ?

19. My flickering oil light on my 1999 Camry was from sitting during the lockdown for 6 months, the oil filter got stopped up with stop-leak product I put in there a year earlier. just sitting there turned to glue.

20. What's funny is I have no idea why I'm watching this. I don't own a Honda, will probably never own a honda, but this is interesting to watch!

21. Should you always deck the block if you level the head ?

22. I have that same Milwaukee heavy duty battery powered impact – ripped apart the rusty leaf springs under my wife’s dodge truck like it was nothing! It kinda made me feel like Dirty Harry with the “44 Magnum of tools!” Go ahead rusty bolt, make my day!

23. Eric The Car Guy: Keep ALL the things!!!

24. 💪

25. Eric gained some wait since I saw him last. They say the camera adds 10 lbs.

26. Grazie per il video, sei un vero professioniasta.Ti seguo da Milano, ciao!

27. Every blown engine video i have watched on youtube had one thing in common. A FRAM OIL FILTER was used!!!

28. My son destroyed two of these same engines

29. .006 six thousands of an inch.

30. Good analysis on cylinder heads. Aluminum heads do hate being overheated.

31. Good stuff, for those of us who have had our shop classes closed

32. Hello, Eric, thanks for the video, very informative one. I have a question: why are the exhaust valves cleaner/brighter in color than the intake ones on the second engine? Thanks and all the best!

33. 12:07

    I think that's broken

34. i`ve learned that I need to check that flicking oil light…

35. So which engine will end up as a coffee table?

36. Electric cars starting to look good after watching this video

37. I remember my dad had a truck that had oil pressure go to zero when warm. Ran for about a year. How much oil pressure do you really need?

38. Eric The Car Guy

    Have a great Christmas and a happy new year

39. Definitely agree no wizzy wheel on aluminum! Auto transmission guys say scotch brite is your friend. Great videos

40. I have a 01-05 era civic. Their known for blowing gaskets but due to the exhaust/coolant port locations, the exhaust leaks into the coolant, steaming it and eventually running the car hot. Maybe the same thing here?

41. Been a honda nut for 20yrs now n stoll love em

42. Crank jus needs a lil polish

43. I didn’t think you could kill a D series

44. I had a Honda D-series in my second car ever. It made to over 500 thousand kilometers, then just in case it was rebuilt with new bearings, rings and everything in the top end. It was around 12 years ago. I sold it to a friend who still drive it to this day. 🙂

45. my 99 civic has 315k on the original d16y8 and automatic transmission. It did have a headmaster issue a few years ago i did deck the head and good as new. Last year I put rod and main bearings fir peace of mind! I always check the oil weekly and change oil every 3500 miles

46. Why do these engines burn oil? Common issue?

47. I sincerely hope that you’re not just throwing out the absorbed oil and the oil soaked rags

48. Ugh, you made me realize what I’m in for at some point as far as the oil pump goes, I have a 00’ Civic EX w/ 260k and I’m about to have to replace the original clutch and rear main seal while I’m in there; I’m already hating this job and when the oil pump goes, life will suck! But I still love working on my Honda’s after working on them the last 17 years.
