I think the carbonator is shot.
I know I sound like a fucking idiot but this is just something I've always struggled with. Can I file a report if I get conned into buying a lemon?
>>16377410

I bet this hits post limit.
>He tells me to call him Slick
That should have been your sign to get the hell outta there
>>16377410
Meant to say carburator* not carbonator.

Thanks for the help...
What's the difference between a wing and a spoiler?
Visually how can you tell if it's a wing or spoiler?
>>16377309
Wing create downforce.
>>16377321
That's a spoiler.
A wing creates downforce, while a spoiler 'spoils' the airflow around the back end, negating lift at high speeds.

Opinions in this classic?
Would it be a good daily life car? Really like that you can tweak and repair it yourself(not to mention its spartan design), but it also has quite the fuel consumption.
>>16374332
enjoy wrenching on it 2 hours for every mile covered.
I know you murritards romantisize russian garbage because they're excotic or some shit.
They're garbage.

Nice anon, fancy!
neighbors had a car identical to this but with louvers
I ended up with it eventually it was a slow awful piece of shit
Hey /o/.
I've been gone a while, thinking some things out. I'm back, with a bit of a tale and in need of some help.
Some might remember me as the one who started the 'Toyota General' threads, which the kind fellow over at 'Honda General' continued. A bit of an ironic twist, actually.
Anyways, I wrecked my Echo, and I was feeling depressed for a bit. I had to get myself out of this rut, so I bought another car with what
little cash I have. It feels like a million pounds has been lifted of my chest, and the damn civic doesn't even run properly.
I bought a 2001 civic coupe, with a very clean body, and an engine more anemic than my asthmatic, obese cousin.
I don't know why, but having this shitty, non-running car in my life has made me happy. And I don't know why. It's nice.
As for the help, it's got a few issues, the major one being the idle. When you start it up, it will go to 1k RPM, slowly climb to 2k rpm, then the CEL will flash for a second, and it will drop to 1k RPM and do it all over again. Eventually, the tach will drop to 0, the CEL will be solid, but the engine will still idle. It needs a flex pipe gasket and had the starter replaced, if it might be relevant.
>>16367865
What's the cel code
>>16367865
Right? It's always nice having a shitbox to work on. I can't really help you with your issue (maybe something with your idle valve? if you can read the code you should), but I can give you a funny little anecdote.
I work at my local tim hortons doing the night shift shit, and a few nights ago I saw a couple in an argument that was pretty loud. Kinda got the gist that they were breaking up, didn't really listen too close, kinda phased in and out. The big part I heard was the girl saying something along the lines of "The only time you are really happy is when you're working on your car, or when you're driving me around." Kinda had a chuckle at that, and a few minutes later the guy said to the girl, "I can't do this anymore. You're like a 10mm bolt, while I'm a 3/8" socket."
Anyway, just have fun with it. I know I love wrenching my shitbox, even if I exhaust a new thesaurus of cuss words every time I do a new project. Having a car is pretty much always better than not, even if your car is a piece of shit.
>>16367910
Haven't got the code checker yet, doing that tomorrow. The radio says error 7, if that helps.
>>16367915
The idle air control valve is my main suspect, I'll clean it out in the morning. It's always nice to see other Canadians here, too. I'm used to piece-of-shit cars, I'm just getting overexcited that it might not be a piece of shit if I'm done.
What year this WRX shit b?

I live in the Northeast but my sibling is in the South...I'm thinking maybe I should go down there and buy a (Cheap) rust free car and road trip it home. Thoughts?
>>16378446
good plan. post his local craigslist
>>16378446
Not a bad idea but you should get it rust proofed down there aswell since your going to drive it back through salted roads.
and make sure they know what theyre doing aswell since most garages down south have only heard of rustproofing vs actually doing it.
>>16378561
Does rust proofing really work or is it a scam like the "paint sealer" packages dealers sell?
Tommorow i am going to start my driving lessons (in Poland, i am 18), i am scared as fuck. I was already behind the wheels some times but it went fucking awful for the most part (i just can't feel the clutch and gas). I am going to either kill myself on the roads tomorrow or i will look like a retard without arms driving. What the fuck do i do.
>>16377978
>like a retard without arms driving
There are actualy people driving without arms:

Nice advice, retard.
