Odyssey for those years were available in a i4.metpage said:wait, i thought the oddessey was v6 from the begining??? how could a 4cyl pull a minivan like that?? i would take it back and demand they put the correct engine in the car!
This engine was in an accord before and researching brings it up for an accord as well.hyperflow02 said:i am! and if they refuse then its going to become a huge legal battle b/c they told me i would get a F22B1 or 2 not a damn F22B6. has anyone else heard of this engine in accords?!
On what data/experience are these opinions based? From what I can tell, the engine specs for a 1995 F22B6 Odyssey engine are identical to those for a 1995 F22B2 Accord engine:HyperFlow02 said:so i did my stock engine swap and i think i had the F22B1 now i have the F22B6. i am wondering what the difference was between the 2 engines and what's the hp/tourqe specs for this engine. its in a 96 accord. thanx guys
*edit* i had the non-Vtec. it was the F22B2 accord engine
yea man i am too. we have stopped the payment on the credit card b/c they have already told me they wont do anything. so once my dad gives them the option of either pulling the engine out and refunding our money and getting the job done somewhere else OR my layer will be getting involved. no need to hire one we have had the same layer for 20 years so with im not going to have to pay my lawyer to write them a letter telling them to do what we want. i will keep u guys posted.ldraudi said:Definitely the shop's screwup! :eek Make them pay but don't let them touch the car again. Odyssey had 4 cyl avail, even though most are 6cyl. You got a bad trade! Legally, the shop needed to replace your engine with OEM. They could get in trouble if you go after them with a lawyer. Chances are they will give you money to go away when they realize their mistake. Try being nice first, even though you want to screw them over. If that doesn't work, hire a lawyer and get nasty. I'm interested in how this comes out...
bjmsam said:So what's the difference? What makes the "damn F22B6" a "crap engine" for an Accord? Perhaps whatever Honda did to optimize this engine for the heavier Odyssey platform actually increases flexibility for modification? Indeed, why isn't it a better choice?
If you couldn't get an Odyssey oil filter (or an Accord oil filter, for that matter) to fit on an Odyssey engine, then there is a different problem. For which vehicle is the oil filter you got to fit intended? Perhaps that would shed some light on your predicament.HyperFlow02 said:so i go and buy a oil filter for a odessey and it doesnt fit. I had to go threw 7 different oil filters to find the one I needed. that's why the odyssey engine isn't a good swap.
Can anyone explain what makes it a "minivan engine?" I don't want to hijack this thread, but I'm running out of ways to ask the question. My interest in this topic is simply that I own a '95 Odyssey EX and am curious how my engine differs from the Accord version. From my research so far, they appear to be identical, though it seems unlikely that Honda would have gone to the trouble of changing the designator without good reason.HyperFlow02 said:maybe b/c i dont want a mini van engine in my accord.
