Well now this is a mystery to me. I just went out and looked at the engine plates in front ( thanks for the locations ). The Teal car that we got first, is a Y7. The Silver car has a filthy engine and I had to use a napkin to TRY to wipe it clean enough to read, but THAT ALSO appears to be a Y7. BOTH are 1998 Civics. So WHY would the Silver car be SO much more assertive and smooth than the Teal car? Remember, the Teal had 94,500 miles when we got it in January and the dealer said they got it from the first owner. The Silver car was bought from the second(?) owner and was the one with the opaque blackened air filter and plugs that were nearly down to the insulators, and even then, before I changed them, it was more assertive and smooth than the Teal. Now I'm really curious.
Would photos of the engine compartments help?
By the way, a local car wash says they can wash the engine for $20 extra but don't guarantee not harming sensors ( they have people sign a waiver ). Is it very risky to sensors or are they just doing CYA?
