dude loooooove you honda videos. my 98 crv has 310k miles and drives like it will never stop. great vehicles and worth fixing forever!
Thank you man!
I also have a '98 but I'm "only" at 296k miles...just getting broken in ;)
@@hondaphan4172 i still drive mine like 85 down the freeway, and it's the no overdrive havin front wheel drive only bare bones crv that was originally from california but made its way to me here in arkansas via the only other owner it ever had. and she babied it. i bought it with 262k i think and replaced the timing belt, water pump, worn out engine mounts and other bad bushings. she's still got gooood compression and power and just won't quit. the trans needs flushing again, they get dirty and like to hang in a gear or two but a double atf change usually fixes it for 20k-ish miles. i also adjusted the valves but they've still got plenty of adjustment left. three hundred ten thousand miles, that's crazy. i swear it'll go another 300k, crossing fingers.
Heck yeah! I'm also driving a '98 in Arkansas. Mine has only 184k though. These things are rock solid and refuse to die. Just did my timing belt, WP, engine mounts, and valve adj on mine as well. I was even lucky enough to get the license plate "CRV". Holler if you ever see me around @@JakobSchafferDrums
I have a 2001 crv ex and love it. I can't stress how much I would like to live in your part of the world just to take my crv to you for some much needed tlc.
Thank you
Doesn't matter if u have shown it before. New episode, is always good to see. I literally go to my shop and do the same thing ur doing. Then come home and watch you do the same thing, and it's totally satisfying. Keep going........Hope your new ventures are going smoothly and profitable.
We just started this week. We did 10 oil changes and 1 brake job. Nothing to brag about but I guess it's a start!
Just bought a 1998 CRV w/5 speed that's been lovingly cared for. 217K. Looking forward to keeping it that way. Thanks !!
Enjoy it, they are good vehicles!
I am doing the valve cover-cam plug on my first gen CRV RD1 today, what a coincidence! The First Gen RD1 is an awsome wheeler for overlanding with a few upgrades and modifications. I four wheel mine in the rugged Six Rivers back country year round and love the ease, comfort and reliability of the first Gen Honda CRV RD1 - Awsome. 😎
Hopefully I'll find the one that's right for me soon
I just did my oil pan gasket and I left my torch at my parents from over the summer, What a pain it was spent 45 minutes with a scrapper and little hammer getting that sucker off lol.
😭 it's definitely not a fun task without the the torch
My oil pan gasket is on the to-do list of things needed for my RD1. I didn't know about unplugging the power to the distributor to build up oil pressure. I would have cranked that bad boy right up. Thanks for the info.
It probably would have been fine but I prefer to do it like this
That a great idea on the torch to remove the gasket. I’ve seen people ruin a oil or transmission pan by using a Zeus wheel.
Thank you, it works like a charm
So glad to see you back.
Thanks, this one has been uploaded for about a week but I didn't make it live because I didn't do a thumbnail. Finally this morning I was like whatever and put it public😄
I'm trying to get my rd-1 to pass inspection after I converted it to a p28 and tuned it on Honda tuning suite now it's that time of year I've got to switch it back to OBD2 and with my exhaust setup my rear O2 sensor does not complying with me I'm having to clear the code modified a little drive a lot of miles and try again LOL and I'm not stopping I love the CRVs one of my favorite Hondas manual 5-speed all-wheel drive rd1 for the win!
Good luck man! I'm glad we don't have emissions here
Now we're minttttt👌stickered up ready to swap to a p28 with a snake emu and retune on HTS👀🔥🔥🔥love my RD-1,next I'm h22 5spd swap my 96 ra1🤙
Love the content bro great channel thx for the hard work to bring us great videos🤙🤙
Cat delete plus O2 sensor spacers makes the O2 think everything is fine
I love the 1st gen CRV's. I'd love to find a clean one to fix up and customize a little
Nice ones are becoming pricey
Paid 5k for mine
I paid $2k for one my friend was selling. I bought it out of desperation, but it has quickly become my favorite car I've ever owned.
Just FYI Napa auto parts Carries Aftermarket (OEM) brand parts for Toyota Honda and Nissan under Altrom brand. I use the parts for sensors and gaskets so far so good. Haven’t done oil pan yet so I will take your advice on that one.
Awesome! Good to know
SEEN A MINT 01 GOLD WITH NO RUST WOULDNT EVEN ENTERTAIN A BUYING OFFER HE JUST LAUGHED AT ME LIKE I WAS CRAZY. AND I TOTALLY UNDERSTOOD BECAUSE IF I HAVE ONE I WOULD NEVER THINK OF PARTING WITH IT JUST SUCH AN AMAZING CAR TO DRIVE BETTER THAN RAV4 AND GRAND VITARAS
I wish I knew someone like you in my area. I have a 99 ex RT AWD auto that I did a lot of work on to get it running well and now it runs like a champ but the suspension is absolutely blown out and I don't know anything about suspension. I've read it could be ball joints, sway bar links or bushings, all kinds of shit and I'm too scared to work on it because I don't have any experience with it like I do working on engines/trans
Yeah suspension is definitely an area of concern with these
I love your videos, they have helped me a ton! I'm the original owner of a 2000 CRV with 186K miles. I've never cleaned the throttle body or MAF sensor - is that something you'd recommend doing as part of 'tune-up' service? I used your videos to change my timing belt/water pump, valve adjustment, cam end plug, and much more. Thank-you!
These don't have a maf. I wouldn't clean the throttle body
Always with the informative videos keep it up
Thank you man
I have a 1998 it's still working need help putting the rack back to the steering is hard
I took my car to the shop and did a complete suspension job by replacing all four new spring and struts. The ride did improves a little but not that much, it did smooth and good when going over big bumps with low speed on local but perform badly on uneven surfaces on some part of the highway its kind of rough and uncomfortable and I wonder if the old sway bar links are the blame.
Sway bar end links won't change the quality of the ride. They still do their job even if the are clunking a little. The clunking just gets annoying
Ty for oil pump trick
Very detailed and informative. Great job…🙂👍👍👍
Thank you
Awesome video from a Honda guy. You remind me of Eric the car guy on TH-cam as well.
Thanks man, that is a nice compliment.
Loved your videos but don’t have my Honda anymore because I couldn’t swap the motor :(
Same.
@@michaellee8495 lol it’s definitely not a one man job and I have no garage 😂
@@Peurperformance I do everything by myself lol
@@hondaresource it’s a bonus to have to the equipment that allows you to do things by yourself. Doing a crank bolt by yourself and without proper tools can discourage a lot of people lol.
Wondered what that beep was and I guess it's your torque wrench ?
yessir. Digital torque wrench
Where do you get the older cam cap?
Your videos are super informative and helpful. Thank you
Glad you like them!
thank you!
Got the same oil pan gasket and my oil pan still leaks. Tightened all the nuts and bolts to spec and used Honda bond in each corner. Know its hard without seeing what I did and the condition of the pan, but any suggestions? Cheers
The only one I've seen leak was due to leaving the little metal spacers on 2 studs on the transmission side
I'll take a look at that. Appears to be leaking from the front, driver's side corner of the pan. Cheers
I would’ve enjoyed a closer view to the gaskets part number on the items you presented. Some you went just too fast to write down.
I have a 2000 Honda CR-V with 200,000 well kept miles but those items you listed are in dire need.
Great video other than that!
Which parts?
@@hondaresource mahle valve cover gasket
Great video this was awesome
Glad you enjoyed it
Im having a hard time identifying some parts on the under carriage of my CRV, its an 01, there is these two bars around the middle of the vehicle, towards the back, they're just bolted into two different areas of the frame, and look super easy to replace, mine are pretty rusted, just cannot find any info on what the parts names are.
Boosted fabrication sells some.
How much oil would be in the oil pan below the dipstick tube,Do you think maybe 2 Quartz?
I think it's roughly 2.5-3 before it touches the stick
NOT a Wix fuel filter. That is for cross reference info ONLY.
As always, nice work! How close do you live to Brookside?😁
About 45min 🤣
I like your videos I have one 2001 I just buy it
Congrats
In your experience w the 1st Gens what’s the most common issue w the EVAP p0456 code if not the gas cap? Thanks
Get a little oil flowing, light a paper towel and toss it in the pan with the oil. After a little bit, turn on the fan
Hi did you remove the mufler (catalyser and front pipe) to remove rhe oil pan?
Just the front pipe
@@hondaresource thansk, i saw that later on your video.
How much should I be charged for a valve adjustment? Ballpark
Depends on if they have to replace the valve cover gasket. $150-$250
hi just asking what is the valve clearance my crv b20
th-cam.com/video/dociEclk1RE/w-d-xo.html
Is that tube,left of the oil pick up is that dipstick tube ?
The dipstick tube doesn't go passed the block itself
what causes that flair between shifts in the auto crvs, mine does it but only sometimes
I'm not very good with auto transmissions, so I don't want to give you bad info😄
@@hondaresource all good bro, you know if it means trans failure is soon?
My mom gave me a 99 crv. It’s a 4 speed sadly but I’m not gonna complain about a car. Plus I enjoy it, I’ve put a yonaka exhaust just for the fuck of it 💀
On these valves I know they tend to tighten up so much they break off. Is it best to put it directly to spec or is there a better setting? This is a 2001 with 251,000 on the motor.
I go straight up spec
I always adjust my valves to the loose side of specs with the "go-no go" method which means I make sure the thickest feeler gauge(within spec) passes through but the next thicker size(which is out of spec) does not. I've done it this way for years on my '98(now at 296k miles) and it takes the guesswork out of the tedious process along with also making sure it gives you a bit of cushion when the valves tighten over time. I've found the recommendation to check them every 30k miles to be overkill. I stretched the interval to 40k for awhile and the last time I stretched it even further to 50k. Even at 50k I only needed to adjust a couple of them but only because I want them on the loose side....they were still well within spec. My B20 still purrs like a kitten.
Where are you from?
Alabama
Mine has that srs light too, anybody know how to fix it? It’s a 1998 4wd btw
Just fix whatever the code is for
I have a 1999 crv awd. I’ve been having some issues with it lately. The front brakes seem to get stuck but I’m not sure if it’s the calipers or if the brake lines need to be bled out. Any suggestions? TIA also every time I make a sharp left turn, the steering seems to make screeching noise. Is that normal?
Most likely need to replace the calipers if it's getting stuck
its gonna leak lolol
😂😂

Great video! Just purchased a first gen myself! What parts would you put on a list to replace as preventative maintenance? I know valve lash service is important and the timing belt but what else would recommend to replace ? Thank again for the videos! You’ve got a subscriber today sir!
100% a GOOD brand lower ball joint. Three 5 if you can find them
@@hondaresource Another good lower ball joint would be Proforged.
