I was actually pushing it a little bit harder than I normally do when I took those vids. I normally shift at around 7,000-7,400rpm. 7800 or so felt great
I crawled under there yesterday and was just checking it out, and it looks like I've got a little oil leakage. I at first though of the axle seal, but I'm almost positive it's engine oil, not MTF. It's only visible right at the axle/tranny connection point on the passenger side axle. I can't feel any wet oil dripping/running down on it from above,(on my D, it'd more than likely be a leaky vtec noid or dizzy. but on the B, the noid is on the exhaust cam, and theres nothing leaking...?), but it's definatly there.
Just another thing I've gotta do while it's out! So far on my list of things to work on/replace while it's on the ground is:
Axle seals
remove intake mani bracket
Seriously considering removing A/C. But thats a hard decision to make here in FL, but we're
almost through the "hot" season. Help me weigh my decision:
Pros:
-It would make the swap soooo much easier (less crap in the way)
-I never use it anyway(have the belt off for that reason)
-I'm used to NOT using it.
-Decrease weight.
-More room for slim fan to be hidden in front of the radiator as a "pusher".= cleaner bay.
Cons:
-It means I would 99.9% never re-install it in the car. (never again have the choice of hooking up the belt and getting it charged with freon and having A/C)
-I
would say "it's hot", but like I said, I'm totally used to it... even when my A/C
was connected, I still didn't use it very much.
It's obvious to me now, when I lay it all out like that, that it's probably a good idea to go ahead and rip it out.
I'll start up a fan-club.
