You know what Mr. What (can I call you Say?) you're right! I forgot. My newsreader locked up again. On the 7th or 8th I noticed that none of them had posts newer than August 5th, and I emailed my ISP again complaing about it. They made it all better, but everything for the 6th and 7th never showed up. This seems to happen 2-3 times a year and the problem's on their end. Below is a copy as my proof, or, I can do a screen shot for you if I can attach jpegs on the group. Wayne -------------------------------------------------------- Wayne, Thanks for your email. We tested out the groups you listed, and we received posts from the 5th up to today. If you are still having this problem, try unsubscribing and resubscribing to the groups. Hope this helps!

While most of these 11 are low traffic, historically they all seem have have had 1 or more posts a day; one in the 100 a day range. One is rec.models.railroad. The higher traffic one is alt.binaries.pictures.rail. This same problem seems to come up 2-3 times a year. You people always get it fixed Thanks in advance!

My regular propane torch won't get hot enough? I have a little Propane / MAPP & Oxygen torch too, but the MAPP bottles are expensive, and the oxygen bottle are even more expensive and last less than 10 minutes. How come you guys don't like me? Tegger was very polite and helpful, thankfully. I read some other posts and you weren't breaking their balls. It's going to take some time for me to get over this. Maybe the whole weekend, when I'll have time to try the torch method. Will the grease flow properly with the car level, or do I have to jack up the other side? Thanks for the tip Jim and Say! Wayne

The post about the torch was a joke. Don't do this. The "sealed" bearings get warm during normal operation and that will allow the grease to spread throughout the bearing. Torching the bearings will only kill them. Eric

You may find you cannot turn them 180 degrees to get them started on the threads. There is only one entry for the nut on the driveshaft threads, so it will go on exactly the same way every time. I'll bet none of those was a Honda. Honda's suspension bugaboos are seized front lower balljoints and broken front springs on pre-Macpherson strut cars. They are expensive, but worth every penny. If I were you, and intended to keep the car for a long time, I'd bite the bullet and get the manuals. You may eventually be able to find them on eBay.

Do not monkey around with heating the bearings. That is a bad idea and is unnecessary. You risk damage to the rubber sealing lip on the back of the bearing. Honda bearings go bad for two reasons: 1) impact damage, and 2) water ingress. They do not go bad because the grease has dried up. Just leave the bearings alone. If, like me, you just like doing "recreational maintenance", find something else to keep yourself occupied, like painting out stone chips before they rust.

A more likely price is $70 http://tinyurl.com/29qqy6 Add $35 if you want the supplement manual for the navigation system. Add $40 if you want the supplement manual for the V6. There are others as well. However, most of the information you'll likely wind up needing will be in the general manual (by the way, I don't recall you mentioning which engine your car had). Note that you can access manuals for older cars with sealed rear wheel bearings from http://www.honda.co.uk/car/owner/workshop.html Eric

The 4 cylinder. Plenty peppy for me, and more room under the hood for working on it. Thanks Eric (and Tegger)
