Good evening, I have a '99 Accord LX (5 speed) with 115k miles that consumes 1 qt every 1,000 miles or so. Has been doing so for the past 18 months. No leaks that I can see (I park in the same part of driveway every day, and had the oil seals replaced at 90k with the timing belt). Passed smog...

Hi All, My Honda Accord EX 98 doesn't start after sitting for one day in my driveway. Engine starts everyday no matter how cold or warm is the day and battery is pretty good. The only problem is if I don't start the engine for one (or more) days (after weekends mostly). I tested holding the gas...

My son has a 1990 Honda Civic that won't start. I am living 1,000 miles away for now and can only help via phone. I'm not even sure if this model has a distributor with rotor, electronic points, or what. It will turn over, but does not fire. He pulled the plug wires and put a metal screw in the...

I recently had some damage done to my drivers side door. Someone backed into it in a parking lot and then (ARUGH!) took off. The door still aligns o.k. and the power window still works well. My father claims that I am wasting my money by having the auto body place repair the large dent in the...

Just for the edification of anyone Usenetting or Googling... I've just got through a chilly February episode replacing the cabin filter in my neighbor's van. It had never been done before on this particular vehicle, so the plastic dash reinforcing strip was still there. The Purolator instructions...

Hi everyone, I am driving a honda accord and lately noticed a noise when I shift gear from P to R. This only happens when I start the car from a steep parking area. The gear feels very heavy and a big noise comes out while shifting. It's not a problem when the car is parked in flat place. I am not...

This car has the worse headlights of any car I've owned since the early 90's. Consumer Reports rated the headlights fair. Anyone have any success improving the headlights on their accord?

I had to put a new timing belt on my 1991 Honda Prelude Si. I am having trouble getting it timed just right. Can anyone tell me an easy way to get the timing set?

Recently, my '83 Honda Civic FE refused to start. A squirt of starting fluid in the carb did nothing. Hence, my attention turned to ignition failure. Changing the distributor did not fix it. Changing the coil did not fix it. Cleaning the (NGK) plugs barely allowed it to start. Once warmed up,...

My 1988 Legand with 187,000 occasionally just won't start. Otherwise, it runs like a top. I remember seeing something about a fuel pump relay which causes something like this. Any ideas? TIA,

Hi! Can anyone tell me the disadvantages of having the fan turned on even when the car is started? Basically the radiator fan is supposed to turn on only when the engine is hot already. I have a problem on the engine keeping its temperature to the mid level. My radiator fan turns too late that it...

On a '97 Accord, I bent up the pins on the power side mirror control switch while taking it out. Now that I am trying to get it back together I notice that there are 8 pins and it appears to be 16 potential slots. Does anyone know where to obtain a schematic showing proper pin placement?

Hi all: My 95 Honda Prelude S (auto transmission) sometimes won't start. It happened randomly twice this two weeks. When I turned the key to start, I hear click... click... click... and the car will start only after a few tries (5-7 times). All lights were on inside the car, and the radio and...

Hi, Recently I was out of town for 6 month from January to July (I live in NY by the way so I get some corrosion) and I had my parking break on the whole time. When I test drove the car after I got back, I noticed that both my rear brakes were "stuck" to the rotor. So I figured I'd replace the...
