I did a seafoam treatment today and oil change the hesitation came back even after the oil change.i checked the spark plugs and they were a little black on the ends. im thinking i just fouled them up after the treatment even tho i just replaced them not long ago.
Also leaking a little coolant underneath the bleeder bolt assembly area.the coolant leaks right onto engine stamp.

Also the engine doesnt seem tightnd down all the way from the drivers side mount.it has wobble room back and forth.how do i tighten it down?
An HX trans would bolt on, and as I understand it, the 6th gen DX hatch had the same final drive as an HX. Either of those would give you gearing closer to the VX/CX.

I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
