Well I put seafoam into my oil, about a half a can. Then I put a can into my tank. I drove some what like I mad man for about 20mins (went to Chipolte for some tacos) then came back and changed the oil. The old oil filters rubber seal came off lol, the oil was pretty freaking black. I then put on new filter and poured in oil, Mobil Synthetic, yum yum yum. The car has seemed to gain a nice amount of power towards the top end, I had fun with an Audi A6 on the way back home.
I haven't done seafoam through vac line yet but I'll get around to that soon enough.

Ok well the oil was leaking pretty damn bad, so I went to the Honda stealership and bought a new oil drain bolt for like 9 bucks... arrgh lol. I would of bought one from AutoZone but didn't know size of bolt or anything. I drained oil into clean pan and then changed out washer/bolt poured oil back in, WA LA no leak, works great, to test the oil make sure all is good I went out and so happened to run into last gen made Celia GT, smoked it by airplane distance, we took it to about 100mph.
Anyways I came back home, turned the car off went inside to chill with some friends. Few hours later we got hungry so I went to start the car, CLICK no start. ALL POWER works though. We tried to jump battery, no luck. We take the battery out (wish I hadn't done this) and go to AutoZone, battery checks out fine.
So yeah the bad news, my starter is on it's way out OR the lead from positive terminal is faulty. So yeah we come back home, find the starter and tighten the bolt for the lead to it in very hard and use the ratchet to lightly tap the starter, hook up the battery and what do you know, starts right up.
NOW today I was about to leave for church, guess what happens? CLICK no start. So I got the tool set out, smacked the starter around, tighten the bolt even more and it started right up. I was pissed though and wanted to get this shit over with so the guy at autozone told me what bolts to unscrew and basics of taking it out, so I went to go unscrew 1 of the 3 bolts and the thing won't BUDGE.
Any idea on how to get a rusted on bolt that just WON'T come off no matter how hard I try. Even with the rusty bolt eater spray thing.

Nah it was the bolt, the morons at Wal-Mart (my sister had the car before me, so I had no choice on where to get oil changes) they over tighten the bolt, when we took it off shavings of metal were coming off of it. We put the new one in and for 2 days not even a single drop.

Meh, I couldn't get the bolt on, so I put everything back together and the car started up without any issues. To bad it won't last more then a half a day, maybe a full day if I'm lucky but I can almost guarantee tomorrow morning I won't be able to start it again.
Not sure what to do as of right now, I'll decide once I get my paycheck this week.

The times I've dealt with it, it's always been the pan that stripped.

I also did my oil change using castrol edge and did a tranny drain and fill, WHAT A DIFFERENCE. Tranny fluid still had some red in it and only 31k since the last time so i jus drained and filled instead of doing it twice. Got the brake fluid and will do that soon.

That's kewl, but my buddys Dad used K&N and when he went on the highway the oil filter blew off. Oil went everywhere inside the engine, luckly he pulled over in time, no damage caused. I was surprised when he showed me and it was K&N i though maybe like Fram or something. Buut ya Mobile 1 extended performance, mobile 1 extended performance filter, just makes more sense.
