Somehow I missed this thread. I want in, if possible (Team Honda of course).

However Lean Burn Civic is currently sidelined due to cylinder head issues - needs a thorough head rebuild. I hope to have it on the road again in about two weeks but no guarantees.

At least one valve (probably three) are leaking oil into the cylinders so badly that I got CELs a few times each day, till I sidelined the car a nearly week ago. Thankfully ScanGauge enables you to clear a CEL in seconds.

Driving Lean Burn '97 Civic HX, lotsa mods by now! '89 Volvo 240 is semi-retired. I did love that car though!
