    I noticed that the fuel lid stayed closed even when the opener lever was lifted.


    Already there were some signs of someone tried to adjust the alignment in the past.


    So, removed the lid and found that the actual hinge was bent in the past causing very heavy movement.


    Greased it and moved the position of the spring and at the moment, it works fine but when the temperature ...

    The owner ordered the replacement reg. plate through Honda and they were delivered to my place the other day.

    We agreed that it is best for me to drill the holes on the new plates so masked it and used several different size drill bits to gradually enlarge the hole.

  4. Thank you Honda

    The owner ordered extra items from Honda and also I sent the Main Monel and spare blank keys to have them cut at Norton Way Honda.


    They were kind enough to deliver all of these to my place and also wanted to test the new keys as they were copied from the old tired main key than punched using the key code.


    The person who actually cut the key visited my place and we tried using all three keys to first open the door and then tried ...

  5. ABS Service 02

    by , 21-07-2011 at 11:19 PM (Today at Atelier Kaz - ex-Honda R&D, F1, Indy/CART engineer)



    As reported in ‘ABS Service 01’, three out of four solenoids on this NSX were stuck closed.


    Good news (or bad news, from a certain point of view) is, unlike many other ABS issues, this won’t trigger the ABS warning light and it won't disable the ABS.


    However, as they are stuck closed, they won’t be able to release the brake pressure and thus, no ABS control at all on the three out of four tyres.

    Somewhat ...
