Eng Refresh 26

Rate this Entry



Again, not much time available so just a quick update.....



Back to the engine bay.
Time for the compression check after the Eng Refresh.
The full data has been sent to the owner.

Before [psi]
#1: **5, #2: **1, #3: **0, #4: **0, #5: **0, #6: **5

After [psi]
#1: **3, #2: **7, #3: **7, #4: **5, #5: **5, #6: **0

As expected from the smooth engine sound and steady idle rpm,
very healthy data.
In fact, the one measured before start of the service was
not too bad at all.


Happy with the result and just need to adjust the idle rpm later
so reassembled the remaining parts.






Silicone grease on the IG coils and rubber seals at the coil cover.




New OEM air filter.
For C30A, unless you install FI or highlift cam shaft,
not much point in using aftermarket one or air box/scoop.
Engine is not requesting higher intake air volume/speed.




All three clips at the upper rear trim were replaced with some sort of
aftermarket ones and they are all dead any way.

Will see whether I can install the OEM one if the hole on the trim is not damaged.




NSX-T brace back in place and engine bay is done.
Just need to put the engine cover back in place.
Idle rpm check and adjust to follow later.


Now I can focus on the drive shaft.
