I guess my friend Mike's workload here got a little slow. He made these for me:

I did have one Honda gearbox go out, on an '82 Accord. Nearing 300,000 miles. I put in a used one from a junk yard and kept driving.
What I'm saying is, don't give up hope? No, that doesn't sound right.

I think it's about Hondas now.
Hope so, I got one.
I've spent most of my money on women, motorcycles, and beer.
The rest of it I just wasted.

Those are the special tools required to rebuild a airhead gearbox.
edit: a friend of Ed's made them for him.
Experience not included.

Brad, what do you think of Rob's pitch?

Rob's certainly right about the experience not included. Well, I do know how to use the output flange removal tool. Which is what you need when a two dollar spring breaks in your gear box.

Is that what you have? Hopefully a spare.
