Hi, Has anyone experienced any problems while starting up your accord? My accord starts normally for 1 second then the idle just drops and then engine dies. My batteries, fuses are fine. This does not happen all the time. When it doesn't, my car seem fine but once it happens, it takes me 15-25...

I'm reaching into the "wayback machine" here; but I need some info on an older auto alarm system. I recently purchased a 1995 Honda Prelude that has an (aftermarket, I think) anti-theft system installed. At this point, all I know about it is from the window decal and the name on the remote...

Hi, I just went through my papers and found a recall from Honda that mentionned my Exhaust manifold could be cracked and would be garanteed under their extended warranty. How would I know if the manifold is cracked? Is there a loud noise? Does the consumption go up? I've noticed that my...

Wondering which would be the best to use, I can find Wix, Valvoline Max Life, Honda OEM (made by Fram) and Fram toughguard. I will be using Mobil 1 so which would be the best filter for me. Thx for any input. Phil

I recently replaced the throttle position sensor on my '88 Accord. According to a recent posting by Jim Beam about fixing TPS's, after you replace it you need to reset the computer. How is this done? For that matter, where is the computer?

anyone have experience with a code 8 condition? my crx is flashing this and will not clear. it has a brand new distributor & drives just fine. the check engine light is not on. code 8 is supposed to be for tdc/crank sensor, but are there any other conditions known to cause this? thanks!

I am currently replacing the cylinder gasket on a 1992 Civic engine D15B7. The last time that a valve job was performed a special head gasket and head bolts were used in accordance with TSB 97-047. A valve job is being performed because of a burnt exhaust valve. The head bolts appeared to be...

Hi folks, This has only recently started to happen.. my car is a 1990 Accord EX, Auto, with 178k on the clock. The only work I've performed on the intake was to clean the EGR ports(about 5months ago), and routine throttle-body cleaning. This only happens after the car has been warmed up and out on...

After having my remote lock/unlock (aftermarket) not work with my Odyssey LX, I did some digging on google groups and found that I can program the remote fobs by doing the following: 1. Put key in ignition 2. Turn key on 3. Press a lock or unlock button on the fob

Can you please tell me some ideas to add more Horse Power to my 1999 Honda Civic EX... I have done the intake and thats about it as far as Power so if you have some ideas that are CHEAP or even FREE please let me know!!!

My 92 Accord EX's oil light comes on add odd times. It will only come on after driving for a little while, and it will only come on when i am completely stopped. Sometimes it will flicker on, then when i start going again it will turn off, and other times it will stay on for the rest of my trip,...

I would like to install a new cluster with tachometer. The odometer reading will change, is it possible to adjust the new one accordingly?

My '93 Accord usually handles these deep freeze winters well. But for the last few (very cold) days, the temperature gauge hardly rises even after a long period of driving. When I am at a stop and the car is idling at low engine speed, the temp gauge sometimes rises slightly. But when I take...

Hello all. Just getting to grips with my '96 registered 2.2 VTEC and could do with some help on a few things. 1. Is there an on-line 'club' like the GT4OC rather than just a number of sites run by individual owners ? I am looking for a site that would be more specific than a general usenet site and...

The engine in my Honda Civic Dx special ed. overheated due to a cracked head gasket, and I'm faced with replacing the engine. I thought maybe now is a good time to get an upgrade engine, but being largely uneducated on the subject, I decided to look for some advice as to what engines are available,...

After I neutral-stalled my car (accidentally) my D4 light came on and stays on and there is no 1st or 4th gear. Changed trans fluid - no change. Replaced whole transmission, D4 still on & still no 1st or 4th. Honda reprogrammed computer (for free), D4 went off for less than an hour. Now D4 back...

When I open my rear windshield (rear glass window - don't know the correct name for it), it doesn't stay up. The shocks (or whatever they should be called) don't seem to hold it. I called the dealer and they quoted me $126.91 Can. for each part, which sounds excessive to me. Can someone tell me if...

Hi, have a 92 Accord two door LX standard shift. I had been pulling the battery to charge it when I laid a box wrench near the crack between the radiator and the condenser to put it down for a sec. Got lucky and the box wrench fell down inbetween, if you look at your own, you'd never think it was...
