Unless you take the engine out and set the engine/cylinder block upside down, you only have very short time to keep the oil pan mating surface oil free after wiping it down with the brake cleaner. Not much photos here as I was dealing with the liquid gasket which needs only 5min before it starts to cure so had to be really quick in installing everything. Once pre-installed the bolts and nuts, I prefer ...
The rubber gasket was not installed properly and misaligned resulting in oil pan not seating properly. In fact, it managed to cut through small part of the rubber gasket causing more leakage. From the service history, it looked like this was done while this NSX was in Japan. ...
I carried out the TB service on this NSX recently and as the result, there was no more oil leakage from the valve cover gasket area. Thus, the surface of engine/cylinder block above the oil pan was very dry. However, the top section of the oil pan was already wet all the way round even after it was cleaned recently so it is definitely leaking from the pan gasket area. ...
What a long day… Spent many hours just cleaning the oil gunk. Before I can even touch the Front CAT and Exh Down Pipe, I had to first clean the build up of the gunk otherwise I couldn’t get enough grip or even attach the socket to the nut. This was due to so much oil mist sprayed onto them while they were hot for many years. As expected, it took some time to find the best way ...
It’s about 16 months since last time I worked on the brake system on this NSX so good time to replace the fluid for the main brake and flush the ABS. Nothing new/special here. Pressure bleeding the system. The bleeder screw/plug on each calliper was still shiny silver with no corrosion so the thin coat of silicone grease that I applied worked very well. This NSX has the original ...
