Well I did my best to pamper it, never drive it above 4000 RPM and changed the oil every 5000 miles. Never had to add oil or anything!
Well at least that's how the previous owner drove it for the first 23K miles. Afterwhich I just couldn't do anything to keep it running how it is supposed to. After about 25 minutes of driving it would lose all power and be eaten alive by a stock '89 civic lol. So, after trying to put air in my tires today and the valve stems breaking off inside the stem cap, I decided to take it up to the dealership and Brant at Hiley said he'd have it replaced by Tuesday. Which is exactly what I Wanted to hear.
