havent raged in GC yet so here it goes............
FUCKING HONDA CIVIC HYBRIDS!!!
ok so my GF that Im living with needed her 60k mile maintenance and they wanted something like 300 dollars to do it at the dealer so i said fuucckk that I'll do it myself. Got an air filter, put that in about 3 minutes, ok phew this is gonna be easy. I have no tools down here so I'm forced to "Get in the zone!" and buy some cheapo 3/8 socket wrench with 2 little extensions and the 2 common spark plug sockets..........11.99 not bad not bad. Ok up to the counter so they can go grab me my plugs and then ill be out.
original equipment iridium plugs.........well fuck thats gonna run the price up..............computer pulls up "2 plugs per cylinder"..........yea right i say, never seen any honda engine that does that, so i buy 4 doubting the computer. I pull the spark plug wire cover off and Ill be god damned..........8 fucking plugs on a 1.3l i4 ARGHHHH. So i do the front plugs and go back and get the other 4. So a job that takes me a max of 10 minutes in my crx(JDM d15b engine) took a little over an hour on a 2007 honda civic hybrid. Also, don't ever buy this cheap spark plug kit thing, i had to use both extensions daisy chained to fit both the hondas and it barely was long enough, not to mention the 3/8 drive was a total piece of shit and the spark plug socket barely grabbed the plugs out without cocking it sideways.
To stay on topic, the GF has vacation this week and I'm back on the job hunt so there will be less slashing than normal but ill manage to crank a few MQs out.
