Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)
Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.
These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.
1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.
2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.
3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.
4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.
The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.
The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

yeah the OEM fuel filter is made by BOSCH, part#71504. I had a tremendous difficulty in even fitting the OEM fuel filter that i got at a Honda dealer for some reason so look into this thread for further explanation

Lucas calls their product "Upper Cylinder Lubricant" but it actually is more like fuel system cleaner with slight lubricity additives to oil the top of the piston/walls/valves.
I know that regularly running it in normal doses over 10,000 miles has tremendously changed the way my valves and pistons look....via a boroscope!My Member's Ride Thread

One more thing the CEL is not lit up in the dash no more. However, the code is still there when I did the paper clip check. Anyone is welcome to chime in.
