Hello ladies and gents!
I’m new to the cb community but have been around Honda’s for some time. I’m currently in the process of a K24/20 swapped s2000. I was recently gifted a 91 cb9 wagon. I believe it’s the ex model due to the fact that I have power sunroof and windows, etc. the car has a couple problems that I could really use some help with from more people more familiar with this car.
I am mechanically savvy to a point. I’m a great student when I don’t know so feel free to get technical but also explain what you mean, it’d be greatly appreciated.
First problem: Power Steering
The power steering does not work at all and was told from the previous owners that it’s a leak. I did an inspection and didn’t find any leak spots after filling up the system. When I turned the wheel to the right the system sucked up all the fluid in the reservoir. When I turned the wheel to the left air would shoot through the system and blow off the red cap (which I’m guessing is broken because I would imagine that it should be securely sealed).
Second problem: Windows are not functional
-Driver side window goes down pretty smoothly. It starts to grab the inside guard and drag it down. When you roll the window up the window pivots forward and won’t create a deal with the upper part of the door. Is the track off inside?
-Passenger Side window goes down very slowly and using stops at a certain point. Actuator?
-Rear driver side window goes down semi smoothly.
-rear passenger window doesn’t go down at all. Again actuator?
-Sunroof opens and closes like a charm.
Third problem: Shakiness on deceleration
Say I’m in 4th gear and go down a hill, while going down the hill I take my foot off the gas and let the cat coast in gear. My car will start to do a vibration of sorts that makes me think it’s mounts but also that something suspension wise might be loose. Any experiences with anything like this?
Fourth problem/ question: The Carpet
🤮
From the window problem discussed before, the carpet has suffered the brunt of the abuse and is ready for retirement.
My question is if there is a car that has a black carpet that will also fit cb9?
