I love how thorough and detailed your videos are! Fantastic explanations too! You have saved me twice now, lol
Appreciate the conituned content and honesty about kei vehicles. It's helped me focus my efforts on some newer 1999 models because a good portion of them ran until 2009 giving a younger parts list.
Got 1 week left untill my Acty hits the Port in Jax ! Cant wait for it man
Congrats,,,glad ya got it running
Been looking for a cargo can for a while now. I want a van, but one with no windows. I wanna do it up like a boogie van!
So you made it back from JP. Hope the trip went well. As far as parts for the kei trucks, vans etc. absolutely it can be difficult to locate them but I think you’re right, with a little patience and networking plus anyone can source them & stuff… well most of the time 😂
Enjoyed the video. I've got a Honda Acty. One reason I chose the Honda was the suspicion that Honda parts are most readily available. This has mostly proven true. After a year spent on body restoration, the truck burned a valve. Honda rebuilt engine from Japan- 2295$ with FREE air shipping. After that, it's been a pretty happy truck. All the problems I've had have been carburetor related. The gasket kit, and a couple solenoids are readily available, otherwise, not so much. At present, it runs well, but if it sits a while, it acts flooded. After it clears out, it's happy. Biggest parts nightmare? The van windshield. Glass shop damaged it at the body shop. The two shops agreed to cover it. Lucky me! 1600$, and three months. One thing I found is wild swings in part prices. Seems Honda will make a batch of something, then wait till they run out. As they run out, the price rises. Found this on a very complicated center tie rod. An A/c relay was mildly challenging. On the brighter side, I've also found that some Civic parts interchange. Other thing you can get through Honda powersports, since the Acty engine is half a Goldwing six. I'm three years into my Honda odyssey, and in general, it's a lot of fun. I'm lucky to have a mini truck reseller about three miles from my house.
Great video, perhaps you could make a business here.
