Well the Honda has had issues since I got it back together the water that broke the rod to start with has been showing me and Joe just how many things it screwed up besides a broken rod . And the list has gotten pretty long broken rod severely rusted cylinder walls cracked head messed up shifter slector sensor , seized up idle air control valve , we get that all lined out bout that time it started with a bottom end noise I tore back into bottom end yesterday found a rod that got hot and was starved for oil no major damage had happened just cooked a rod bearing so we pulled oil pump looking for the cause of the oil starved rod this morning I presserized the luberacation system with oil pump out and my transmission flushing pump hooked up and found out the broken rod had punched into the main oil gallie coming from the oil pump in the block but luck was on me and Joe's side cuz we have figured out how to fix this and I believe it will be a grate fix . I said Joe can we put a peace of tubing inside it and seal up the gallie and jb weld the tubing in the gallie Joe walked over to his tool bench and came back with a peace of tubing that you couldn't have machined it to be a better fit so now we are preparing the gallie and going to insert the tube into gallie past the hole the rod punched and with lock tight on the tube and jb weld in the punch hole I'm confident it will work like a charm and new rod bearing and may be new oil pump and or gears and I think it will be just fine . Man water get ruff on parts and equipment . I learned Joe and me can screw stuff up but we are just as good at fixing what we brake lol cuz alot of folks would have said no that can't be fixed a few times on this Honda but we have over. Come all it has threw at us so far I'm confident we will win after this round lol
