| I have a 1990 Acura Legend with 86000 miles. (just a puppy) Does anyone know if there is a fuse in the air conditioner clutch line and where it is? | |
About 6 months ago my son purchased this car w/ ~110k and in what I thought was excellent condition. Local Acura dealer went through it and I had timing belt, all hoses, and water pump replaced (never mentioned head gasket issues of course), dealer also resoldered fuel relay? connections (under dash) and said they needed it. THEN I happened on this forum and acura-legend.com after son complained of on/off heat, weird idle, etc. Read all the posts, checked all the things others had checked, dealt w/ the air-purging, and concluded the dreaded BHG had taken hold. Long story short, I swallowed hard, decided not to tackle myself and had the gaskets replaced by excellent local mechanic (Bruce Beard Automotive, Middletown RI) for reasonable sum. Both gaskets VERY worn, # 6 cylinder worst. She works flawlessly now and we're hoping for long life. My take is that these 100k+ vehicles will have this problem so expect it and be prepared to bite the bullet and get her done. The results ARE worth it. This car is quite a runner, not to mention gorgeous!

| I rarely post messages to forums but had to acknowledge the value of this site. I purchased a 92 Legend LS with 233K miles, excellent interior for $1K. Engine runs very smooth. Had blinking 4, running hot, and intermittant loss of power while driving. Changed thermostat for heat problem, no BHG. One day car would start at all. Mechanics said replace fuel pump for $300. I didn't agree. Found this site. Removed Main Relay. Had it soldered for $15. Car fired up immediately. Will be getting a VSS for the blinking 4. Thanks for everyone's input. | |

hey guys..maybe someone here can help....my 92 legend fans does not want to come on....when i first turn the keys to the on position. the fan will run for about a minute, but after that it will not go on even when the car is starting to overheat..except once in a while..i tried switching relays around to see if it was the relay but no luck...could it be the coolant temperature sensor not sending a signal or not sending it all the time...when i drive the car the temperature needle will rise and fall at the drop of a dime...please help |
