My 93 Accord SE cranks but won't start. It's happened in the morning at first attempt to start, and it's just gone dead while driving and won't start. A mechanic says it's the ignition switch, but that's after he thought it was a battery connection. Any suggestions or experience with this problem. Thanks, Tom

Replying to: twcinnh (Mar 04, 2008 10:27 pm) Sounds like you could use this link too. It has troubleshooting tips for most 4th gen Accords. It would be a good idea to save this link for the future.  http://techauto.awardspace.com/ignition.html |

Replying to: twcinnh (Mar 06, 2008 8:32 am) That definitely sounds like an ignition switch problem. If you start the engine, but don't let the key go all the way back, it may stay running. If so, the ignition switch is bad. I think you can change only the electrical part of the switch, and not have another key to carry around. Good luck

...on my '93 LX (131000 mi. 5sp.), i'm feeling a lot of engine movement or play when slightly accelerating from stop (idle)...is this worn engine mount syndrome or something else?

My 93 Accord has a small transmission leak under the radiator. One mechanic said "Don't worry, just replace it when it gets low." The other said, it's a slow leak but someday it may suddenly let go and there goes your transmission. But, it's cheap to fix." I said OK, fix it. Suddenly the entire radiator had to be replaced as part of the solution. Something about the transmission line connects to the bottom of the radiator and that's where there is some corrosion on the transmission line. Am I getting a line, or does this sound plausible? Thanks for any help understanding what's going on. Regards, Tom
