as far as the trans goes that may be the case. I am not to familiar with that transmission. If it drove fine before then i would say dont worry about it. you definitely need to get the other issue fixed as soon as possible. Its not very good to be driving around with the timing belt off some teeth
gotcha...thanks lot for the help, just wish i knew how to do it myself....timing is def my weakness..called a local shop and they wanted 250 to do it...agh

thats the first thing i did the day i got it back, but the guy was bullshitting me about some sensor thats bad....i know enough to know that if you have to take the timing belt off to fix something then the car feels like the timing off its prolly that the belts on wrong....and it was some guy that works for honda world here in lakeland, and i have heard that they do alot of shady stuff.....

could you do me a favor and tell me how to make sure the motor is top dead center, i read there are timing marks on the flywheel and i have a adjustable cam gear and it has two white lines, one on each opposite side of each other...i think i can do it if i can get it to top dead center

put your car in N remove cylinder #1 spark plug put something in there that is really long so u can see when piston is at peak point (at highest point) turn crankshaft. when piston gets to the highest point take off valve cover and look at your cam gears there should be a arrow pointing directly up on the gear, if its not pointing up keep turning the crankshaft till the arrow points up a few times but each time it points up see where the piston is by looking at the object u put there to see if its high or low
