Yesterday a 60year old man came to a honda garage driving a sedan ej9 completely stock, having 450K km on the clock, mainly done on freeways. He still has the stock clutch on!! :D :D No other engine failures etc..

Runs lpg from new (97), as far as i can see it still has the Original clutch . Engine is also Original, oil consumption is about 1 liter per 8000km's. Has his second cilinderhead, and runs like a Japanese sewingmachine! Trying to reach the half million km's...Still going strong..

Head+gasket changed after approx. 275k. There was no valve clearance left. Known problem on lpg cars. Time for a IM change (have a spare engine with 133k lying around for spare parts, never used something :shock: )
