Well, yesterday we bypassed the ICV and plugged it. Steering feel improved, and no more white smoke upon starting the car.


Today, huge power steering leak. Reservoir emptied. I got it to the garage and it's parked there now,

Unfortunately they can't get to it until Monday. For one, I hope to god that the alternator isn't ****ed, second, I hope it's an easy fix.


I just bought the car! haha

 

did you use a washer? i used a plastic washer my first go round (came with plug) and had issues. copper washer fixed that. did you locate the leak?

 

It's sitting at the garage. They will get to it Monday.

Back to the civic for the weekend! I'll update Monday.
