Question:

what does it mean when. They say your engine has locked up.?

I had my car sitting in the driveway for 3 months, the battery had died completely; but when I tried to start it all I heard was clicking sounds. When I had the engine replaced the mechanic said I had to pay extra to buy a tranny because the engine locked up? Im wondering how when it worked fine last time I drove it..Can someone please explain to me what it means when a engine locks up.? What causes it .? What happens to the engine?

Answer:

I had a 2000 Chrysler Town Country that I finally had to junk, it finally dropped dead. But I made it last by doing a lot of the interior repairs like this with the help of the Haynes Manual for it. There's one available for the Honda Accord as well. It should have step-by-step instructions on how to replace the lock or any of its components.
There are not a lot of tube fittings used in the USA with metric dimensions. Tube fittings are usually designed to MATCH the the tubing pressure rating class. My suggestion is to check out Parker Hannifin's websites as they are a major manufacturer for a full line of Brass and Hydraulic fittings and one of the largest manufactures of compression tube fittings and instrumentation fittings.
Your application is way too sophisticated for this forum to address. Since you clearly have no clue how to do this and because it is several days of work to define, clarify, troubleshoot, and implement, you need to hire someone trained in this specialty. Network engineering at this level is not free.
