Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

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.

    Wondering if my engine is VTEC or non-vtec?

    I have a 1993 Honda Accord EX. The engine code on the side says f22a6. It is a DOHC engine. I was just wondering if it was a VTEC engine or not? I search online and seem to find no exact answers...and I can't trust wikipedia lol

      it should be a stock sohc engine unless you bought the car with a swap. if its have vtec it should say vtec on top of the valve cover. if the the bottom block have a code saying f22a6 then you have the stock sohc non vtec engine. or take a picture of your engine and it'll be easier to tell you what engine you have.

            Unless he bought a car with a headswap... then the block would say F22A6 and it could have a DOHC head on it.

              Something tells me that's highly unlikely

                Felony, post a picture of your engine.

                The F22B DOHC head is an easy swap, and has been done quite a few times. He's in CA... lots of stuff going on over there. Either we assume he can't identify a DOHC engine, or we assume a headswap was done. Either way, we're making assumptions that may or may not be true. If he sees a DOHC head on an F22A6 block, I could see where confusion would occur.

                In all honest, MOST of the information on Wikipedia regarding the CB and it's various engines is correct. The only information that isn't correct that I'm aware of is the compression ratio of various non-US model F series engines.

                      Something that's going to get him banned for giving confusing information to a member that's already clearly confused. Or for inspiring post whoring in the Beginner Forums. Either way, it's not amusing.

                        Two Over Head Cams??? Or, Twin? Or, This is my only Over Head Cam?

                        Unless you have a Frankenstein head swap, it's probably just the stock 16 valve single cam. But, don't feel bad for asking...When I bought my Accord back in 2000 I basically asked the same questions to a friend of mine. We all have to start somewhere, and you only learn by asking.

                            If this guy comes back asking if his engine is TOHC, you'll be banned.
