Currently at Glamis. Trying to get the group back out for another ride. A few break downs in the group, but my buggy is doing well so far.

My wife & I used to camp just like this at Glamis. We would pull up on our own rise near the canal. My fat-tired Chevy Blazer could pull our t-trailered buggy into some pretty soft areas. I was always paranoid about a drunk running over our tent in the middle of the night, so we we set it up...

Being a Honda newbie, I don't know for sure. I think they are different size throttle bodies, but the mounting bolt pattern is the same. I'm pretty sure you can take your current throttle body in with you to match it up, just make sure to show it to them on entry and they will mark it somehow as...

Resale Red.

Yeah, that's why I ordered the new IAC online, the local parts store prices were ridiculous. But now I don't even know if the new parts I'm getting are working or not. Seems like not.

It was $59 including tax and $5 core charge at LKQ in Oceanside. Considering that the new IAC valve was $63, I thought it was worth it. I guess they could have dinged me for each attached sensor, but they didn't. I have another complete spare junkyard throttle body with the 3 stock sensors. I...

Finally some good news for my Honda idle issues! I have been through the wringer on this but it's idling good and running good now. I had a successful shake down run at Ocotillo Wells over New Years. It runs like a champ and I'm very pleased with the power as an upgrade from the 2.2 Ecotec I...

Oh I didn't realize that. I also looked for an engine decoder with no luck. I was trying to find out exactly what vehicle mine came from. I guess it doesn't really matter as long as the parts are the same for all J35A4 engines.

Me too. Haha

I have a J35A4 and it has the rectangle on the top of the intake like your first picture. It also has a J35A4 stamp on the front passenger side of the engine (as it sits in the buggy). I may be going to the junkyard today to pull a part I need off a Pilot or Odyssey. I'll see if I notice any...

So I've been tinkering with making my own sled as a diversion from my buggy frustrations. This is 1/4" aluminum. Multiple holes allow for positioning the tie down brackets as needed to fit the situation. It comes in at about 9 lbs. I sized it to fit in my buggy, but I'll likely just leave it...

I have been using these gloves. Thin, grippy, cheap. I feel like they keep my hands from drying out as much and ward off the wind chapped. I originally got them for the extra grip on my steering wheel, but even after changing out to a better steering wheel, I'm still using them. Keeps the...

I like both kinds of music.... Country and Western.

Ocotillo Wells. Shake down run for my buggy after swapping engines. Still having some idle issues, but just going to put some miles on it and try a couple more things in the field.

No, the way it works is you'll only need the part you are not carrying. I carry all possible spare parts, therefore I will not need any. :LOL:

Yes, but I have a 2 seat buggy that used to be a 2+2, so I have a lot of room behind the seats. I carry a lot of tools and parts. I'm buying some aluminum this weekend. :sneaky:

I like this! I could make something similar at home that would probably get the job done. I have a rack behind my seats where I strap in my tool bags. This could go right onto my rack and the tool bags on top of this.

I have been considering getting one of these or making something similar. I'd expect these to wear out and only last for a few uses, which is fine, but 1 mile probably doesn't get me back to camp. I'm still on the fence about it. Maybe I'll buy it so my wife can to give it to me for Christmas.

Wow! Scary. Hope all are o.k.

Have fun!
