    The owner removed all three Bose speaker boxes by himself and managed to take two of the AMPs without any issues.
    However, he had difficulty in removing the 3rd one because the connector was very tight due to hot melt glue making one of

    Typical LMA noise on classic Honda engine. Inconsistent, comes and goes.
    Especially noticeable around 0:40 - 0:45 and 0:56 - 1:05.

    At the time of annual service, I recommend the owner to
    carry out the compression check.
    This will at least confirm the condition of the upper part of
    your engine and by building up the compression history,
    you may be able to spot the sign of issue.

    It will also help if you keep monitoring the fuel mileage
    every time when you fill up your tank.

    The corrosion protection oil is just everywhere inside the engine bay.

    It’s bit annoying because every time when I remove the bolts, nuts or
    any parts, I have to first wipe off the excess oil from them and then
    wipe off my hands before moving onto the next parts otherwise
    it will not only attract further dust

    Coolant header tank was already cracked at several places but magically,
    it was not leaking yet.

    It will be replaced any way during the full cooling system OH.
