Honda Element Engine Replacement and Restoration (Part 1)
This is (Part 1) a Honda Element engine replacement and restoration. To say this video is packed with information would be an understatement. In addition to replacing the engine and going from an automatic transmission to a manual transmission, I also recondition the lower control arms and the valve cover. If you want to learn all about Elements and what they’re like on the inside, watch this video.
This information also applies to CRV’s of the same vintage.

Thanks for watching!
