ok check this ive got 3 preludes love them to no end got 2,2001s and a 92 ...i was messing with one of my 01s changing the oil and the 5 speed oil ...got a wild hair to pull the valve cover off...what did i see half of a timimg belt,omg the stuped plastic cover was chewing the old old old belt up look like it had never been touched,it had a honda belt on it,that was the name on the belt.OK iam pretty good on cars so i said lets do this ..the balancer was a beast.got it all off got a new belt got it all back on but i broke the auto actuator...that suxed bad.so i got on CRAIGSLIST found some one who had a motor it was out of a 93 prelude it was a spring tenso.i was smart so i got all the parts off of it ,all the way home i was hoping it had that hole for the spring nipple...and it did .soo long story short ,i did it all by myself ....i like the old style with the spring better than the hydraulic ...myself why did they ever change it......but iam happy as can be that i know how to do this now ...thanks

Thanks my friend .I was pretty nervous at first look..but it was not that bad. Hey I've had this car for 8 weeks or so it's a 01 prelude 5 speed.OK it dose this sometimes not all the time ..when you accelerate it feel like it falls on it's head..you know like it running out of fuel then it picks back up...it dose not do it all the time. Any ideas?
