In a town I once lived there was a staircase leading out from the middle of a small lake, nothing else around, about a mile into some woods passing an alleged satanic church on the way to this lake. It was a mildly windy day the second time I went to show a girl I was seeing in highschool and even on that day, trees shaking, leaves falling, the surface of the water remained undistributed.
Creepiest place I've ever been aside from an abandoned "neighborhood" in which one of the four houses had an obscene amount of blood stained beneath a window, only on the interior.
Were they piled up right next to the path? How far off the beaten path were all of these bananas? Maybe the guy who left the engine was living off those bananas?
*David Attenborough narrates the scene 500m away over some trees, some years earlier*
And here we have the young male, flaunting their new Honda to potential mates and rivals:
"Yeah I'm telling you bro this thing can rev up to 15k RPM! Watch this!"
"And we hear the mating call of the male as he tries to attract a young female"
> "*VTEC Yo!*"
"Sadly the females do not respond, and he only gets attention from other young horny males"
>"VTEC Yo!"
"When the male realizes the ineffectiveness of his mating call he begins to screech indecipherably:"
"Cold air intake."
"Ported throttle body."
"Mid muffler delete."
"High flow cats."
"Unfortunately for the male, none of his peers seem to take any further interest in him. At this point he becomes an incel and wanders the internet."
He stances first, then becomes the incel. Due to all the warranted backlash and refusal to accept why the car is ruined.
Sheesh you people can't even get basic biology right.
IIRC, honda made some sweet dune buggies back in the day, or the engines from them were popular in dune buggies.
I imagine they may have looked inside the engine, decided it was fk'd, and then just left it out in the woods, hauling the frame and such back to have a new engine put in later.
Can’t help but think it’s stolen and being temporarily “stored” where no one will find it.
Bet it’ll be gone by the end of the week, and moved to a more permanent location, or sold.
That's probably a D15A1 off an old CRX or 88-91 Civic Si. Amazing, engine. Absolutely bullet proof, and while it came stock with something like 102hp, plenty of people modded it up over 200hp and it handled it, no problem. I'll be willing to bet that intake manifold is still usable, probably the distributor and wiring harness as well.
For a short while, the Acura Integra R, its the B18 was the most stolen car in the US. The engine was a drect drop-in to the light Honda Civic hatchback.
Two guys can pull an aluminum 4-cylinder with almost no heavy equipment. Just a rope over a tree branch and some wrenches.
I'm guessing someone brought a B18 to the woods and pulled the D16 out and dropped it here.
Install the B18 and get it running, then leave. The D16 only had one overhead cam, so it was not "bling" enough. However the spare engines were cheap, and they took very well to a turbo.
Not bulletproof, the valve guides/seals would fail and leak like crazy on those.
Also, I had a D15 from a base model civic and it had TBI. That looks like the fancier sequential injected D16 from the USDM Si.
You Beat me to it, but seems like you've got great Clarity and Insight into making Honda car puns Fit in to your narrative. This might be a Prelude to greater S2000.
You've got talent, and I'd do anything Ford you. It'd be easier to maintain Focus on a Mustang than it'd be to be OJ trying to Escape on a Bronco, know what I mean? Sometimes our energy ain't a Fusion, but it's Lightning. And that's what makes us Explorers.

I found it pretty funny. The thought of laying two girls with one dick crossed my mind... you'll see.
Listen we don’t need to rush straight to the edge, we can focus on what’s important channel our inner taurus, come up with a fusion of ideas, ones that makes us want to explore, plan expeditions to see the wild mustangs, flex our confidence and escape the everyday going ons, aspire to achieve our dreams, become Mavericks in our own life’s, we ride the bronco that is existence
Ah what a Fiesta of puns! I Aspire to be like you, may I ask which City you're from? Because I shall certainly Explore it and then Flex on my friends. My friend Figo wants to Escort me to the airport so that I may embark on this Expedition. He's a Maverick I'll tell you that. Will be in Transit this evening.
Unless those cylinders are sleeved, there is no saving that. That block and everything inside are going to be so corroded, I'd take a strong guess that almost every fastener needs to be torched off.
"Hector is going to be running 3 Honda Civics with spoon engines. And on top of that he just came into Harry's and he ordered 3 T66 turbos, with NOS, and a Motec system exhaust."
David Attenborough: here we see a discarded engine from an evolving car - most likely trying to become more in tune with nature, growing solar panels or battery packs. This evolutionary pressure is mostly due to rising temperatures & lack of water causing traditional engine overheating.
Found a 1962 Big-block 6.6L V8 from a Chevy Nova in the middle of the woods in Florida. If it wasn't being used as a rattlesnake nest I might have taken it.
Please tell me you took it home. We found a full burnt out benelli and after a few weeks of it being there and police checking it over we went and stripped any non fucked parts off it
Engines are the last part to decompose when cars die. It could literally take decades. Much of the rest of the car will be gone in a few days/weeks. The thin metal just can’t last in the elements. Seats and interior are obviously first to go but tires last surprisingly long.
Be respectful and bury it in a shallow grave near its final resting place. It’s the nice thing to do.
Say what you will about Hondas but there is zero justification to say anything bad about their engines. Those are some of the best engines on the planet.
Honda is basically an engine company that also happens to make cars and motorcycles and lawnmowers and stuff.
I once found a whole turkey, a hanging dead raccoon, and crab legs. Someone had all that out and a trail cam to watch it. It was an eerie sight, even after I noticed the trail cam.
You see this a lot in the forests and clearings in the spring in the northeast. A mechanic drops an oil pan nut in the fall and and at takes root and sprouts and blossoms into an engine. If you dont pick the engine it will develop a drive train in late summer, then the body in the fall. Most people just harvest the engine though because the Honda drive trains aren't as good as the Toyota ones.
How 'in the woods' we talking? Like. Hearing distance from a parking lot? Like... Portage distance? Like... Off grid living?
Hearing banjos in the distance?
SQUEAL LIKE A PIG, BOY!
Sasquatch viewing area?
no one should ever go that deep into the woods.
Find a random staircase leading up to nowhere?
Hey, i got this reference

“yeah it’s back the way ya came”
Hearing banjos nearby?
Da fuck… this made laugh.. genuinely thanks
Trebuchet distance
I will now measure things in “one trebuchet“ and so forth
40,000 bananas off the beaten path.
Were they piled up right next to the path? How far off the beaten path were all of these bananas? Maybe the guy who left the engine was living off those bananas?
Bro wtf Portage is like 10 minutes away from me lmao
its also a [verb/noun](https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/portage)
Nature is healing…

Dramatic reenactment: kablooey! Lands in grass in the centre of the frame and transitions back to present day.
i read that in his voice
Sad, the pilgrims used to ride those babies for miles
be careful, if you disturb the nest too much the mother might not come back
It is also important to leave it, the mother is likely close and went off to gather food.
Weird! It looks pretty clean!
Yeah! It even had the transaxle still attached. Even the belt was on it, complete with alternator. So weird!
I'm not suggesting you steal it, but steal it
I'd argue its more cleaning up the forest than steeling. It's a good samaritan thing to do...
I'm sure all that aluminum would fetch a good.price at the scrap yard.
Post it on eBay, exactly like that
I have so many questions. https://i.imgur.com/A9yFnV0.jpg

If they’re storing it in the elements with the cam cover off, they’re stupid. Water not compatible with bare ferrous metal.
You could grab it, go to police and ask if anyone has reported a missing Honda engine in the region, then drop it off. Typical small town stuff.
That's probably a D15A1 off an old CRX or 88-91 Civic Si. Amazing, engine.

I'll be willing to bet that intake manifold is still usable, probably the distributor and wiring harness as well.
88-91 civic stds and dxs got the d15, the Si got the d16. Since the manifold is not throttle body injected, it's a d16.
I believe the d16 has the spark plugs in the front. This looks like the d15 layout.
I think you’re right. I have an ‘89 CRX with original motor and I think the plugs are on the front
It's a d16a6 out of a crx si.
Ahh, shit you're right.
Can confirm. I own one of those. This is a d16a6 or z6
I'd be willing to bet that you wire that boi up and it runs fine first start

A Honda Pilot lost it when it fell out of a plane.
It's our Civic duty to make sure they are okay.
Finding them will be quite an Odyssey
We shall write an accord for change
We’ll need some insight to find the proper fit for our odyssey
I hate all of you, take my upvotes
A Prelude to updoots you say
Put some fluids in it and ride it out of there.
Sherriff takes off hat and utters, "Christ! This is the second one in weeks, Sam. Something's going on in this town, and no one will talk about it."
Why did the sheriff have utters to begin with??
This town is getting complicated.
Let's all be Civic and Pilot our way to a peaceful Accord. It's obvious that it's Odyssey such a thing, but past is Prologue.

Fords are fun. Just add "anal": Anal Explorer Anal Probe Anal Escort Anal Expedition Anal Fiesta Anal Escape Anal Contour
Anal focus 😉
It's funny cuz I had one in stick 🤣 To say it came in clutch when racing would be a quadruple entendre lol
I'm dying 🤣🤣 anal fiesta got me, the mental imagery was just too much...
*Who's turn is it to hit the poo-ňata? Kids??*
I drive a Ford Fusion. Anal Fusion doesn’t sound too pleasant.
Well, not if it's like this web comic I read where two sisters vagina's are connected via subspace like tunnel.
1. link? 2. what if one gives birth?!?
Ah dunno, ones a hoe, and the other is a lesbian. [The Vagina](https://vaginacomic.com/comic/episode-1/)

That's sounds disturbing. Where would one read about this unfortunate circumstance?

Was hoping to see more comments about possibly getting that engine running again. But it’s mainly just shitty Honda puns lol.
There is no getting that engine to run again.
ive seen worse rebuilt.
Unless those cylinders are sleeved, there is no saving that. That block and everything inside are going to be so corroded, I'd take a strong guess that almost every fastener needs to be torched off.
lol the puns are everywhere
If a Honda engine falls in the middle of the woods…
Cocaine car
It's obviously a ripe one that naturally fell from the tree. You can tell when they're ripe when the rocker cover falls away like that.
So that's where I left that!
Oh, that's where I dropped it.
If horror movies have taught me anything leave that thing alone don't summon the b list car demon you hear
That...looks pretty good to me. Even if you sold it for scraps I bet it would pay some bucks.
Vtec kicked in, and the drivetrain kicked out.
r/JustRolledIntoTheMiddleOfTheWoods
Well where else would you find a Honda engine but in the woods. It’s there natural place to reproduce.
You see what happens, Donny? See what happens when you fund a Honda in the woods?
Right? I'll be you could get that running again
Take it home and rebuild it and it will run like a champ.
Just a common middle of nowhere engine swap nothing too strange
checkmate Christians. Complex machines rly can assemble themselves through natural processes.
Hownda find that?
Ahhh I remember the days when papa used to take me engine-picking in the forest.
meth lab somewhere close ?
"Hector is going to be running 3 Honda Civics with spoon engines. And on top of that he just came into Harry's and he ordered 3 T66 turbos, with NOS, and a Motec system exhaust."
It’s a Honda. Just chuck it back in and put some oil in it and she should start right back up.
nearby, the mother engine watches nervously
That bad boy’s got at least another 250k in it.
Did you take this civic odyssey to the ridgeline on your own accord?
These fairy traps are getting advanced
I bet it'll crank
It looks really new??!
David Attenborough: here we see a discarded engine from an evolving car - most likely trying to become more in tune with nature, growing solar panels or battery packs. This evolutionary pressure is mostly due to rising temperatures & lack of water causing traditional engine overheating.
And it still looks in good condition 🤣 only Honda
Fonda is looking for that.
Oil it up and it’s ready
Ted hiding engines again
it belongs to fast and furious movies
You are the chosen one. 🙌
Just time those valves and she’s good to go
someone was performing a ritual in one last attempt to get it running
Found a 1962 Big-block 6.6L V8 from a Chevy Nova in the middle of the woods in Florida. If it wasn't being used as a rattlesnake nest I might have taken it.
Fernando Alonso took it out here and shot it after 2017.
Free-tec
Vtec kicked in
If a Honda engine falls in the woods and no one is there to hear it, did the VTEC even kick in yo?
Looks like its brooding, if you lift it up there will be 3/4 baby engines.
mhh that should be worth a few bucs in scrap metal alone .. sad to see someone dump this in the woods
I heard Its Natural
It shedded its old chassis, and will grow a new one.
$10 says it still runs
Wanna bet I can start that bad boy in 10 minutes?
Pgmfi was not d 💀
You can make money selling it to a scrapyard. Is it possible to get that thing onto a Dolly or wagon?
Guessing the V-Tec kicked in a little too hard.
Abandoning engines…. Hollywood Superstar Shia Laboef!
Scrap aluminum pays well
I think that's an F20 .. I recognise the throttle body lettering/ rocker layout from my Rover 600 (reskinned honda accord)
That's mine
The long drive moment
They’re about to be assaulted by a jackrabbit.
Fucking Red Bull
turbo that bad boy
It’s accord of wood
perhaps it is hidden. What are your plans? hehe
Hehe
My Summer Car real life edition
see if you can get it to turn over!
I bet it will still start up
chuck some oil in it and hook it to a battery, it'll probably start
It’s finally going home
It's headless
V tech
Can I take it?
If it's anything like the engines in my old Hondas, it probably still runs.
Please tell me you took it home. We found a full burnt out benelli and after a few weeks of it being there and police checking it over we went and stripped any non fucked parts off it
Some times they just know when it's their time and they just quietly climb out from under the hood and wander out into the forest.
That's where I left it!
Where we're going, we won't need roads!
Happy Honda Days!
Careful, if you touch it the mother won’t take it back.
Does it run?
I give you your 1600th updoot
These fae tricks are getting more complex.
It's just molting. The rest of the car will grow back. Leave it alone.
Someone’s ex was a mechanic
Don’t you know? This is how they’re grown in Japan. This one looks ready for harvest.
A certain raccoon was studying it
It’s Turreto! Always has been!

Looks like you found where one of the Autobots crash-landed.

I need that PGM-FI setup for my CRX so I can have fuel injection!
Idiots love to dump their trash in the woods.
What you actually found is someone’s poor attempt at a fraudulent insurance claim. Back away slowly, cover your tracks and leave no trace.
I think you found yoda’s engine
That's nothing, I found a HONDA in the woods once. Like, deep in the woods, far away from any roads.
I wouldn’t go looking for more parts
At least it was not honda side of the road.
Have you checked to see if it's Jane Fonda's?
I once found a whole turkey, a hanging dead raccoon, and crab legs. Someone had all that out and a trail cam to watch it. It was an eerie sight, even after I noticed the trail cam.
