93 Accord fuel pressure system by cybercool

Hi all,
 
My engine light code 43 indicates a problem within the fuel pressure system. It mentions check fuel pressure gauge and oxygen sensor. Should I replace both fuel pressure gauge and sensor or just the sensor? Wondering to just replenish the whole fuel line and if it'll be costly?
Thanks for your input

Fuel Pump? Light problems. by miotch00

Hi Everyone
 
I have a 1990 Accord and I'm having trouble getting it started. I think it might be the fuel pump because the car acts as though everything leading up to turning over is fine, but it acts like its out of gas. The needle shows a full tank. Any ideas on fixes?
 
Also, anyone know why the headlights and brights might go out after flickering for about 10 minutes, while all the blinkers, running lights, etc. still work?
 
Thanks for any help guys!

Poer Steering Fluid Leak by miyage007

My 1990 Accord keeps on loosing power steering fluid and I have to top it up every week. There's fluid everywhere the drive belts, hose lines. I have steamed cleaned it let it run for a while to see where the leak is coming from but I just cant pin point the leak is. Does anyone have any idea where the common leaks/weak point in the power steering might be coming from? Could it just be the high presure lines? Any ideas will be much appreciated.

Hi there,
 
I had the same problem. It turned out to be the steering pump hose leaking near the oil dip stick. I paid a mechanic $168 to replace it. I have now no leaks and it's all good except for a whinning sound when I turn but that maybe the pump itself.

AC "chirp" by twa727

Hey guys!
 
Since it's been warming up around here, I started to use the A/C the past few days. Last night, I noticed something odd. While driving, I heard a small chirp from the engine, and then it repeated itself. It does it every few minutes--i'd say about every 3-4 minutes. Also, the car jerks a bit when it happens, kind of like I am going over a **small** bump or running over a small rock. It happens ONLY when the A/C is running.
 
Could this be a loose Serp. belt slipping? If so, why does it only happen when the A/C is running?
 
Thanks for your help!
 
Also, does anyone know a good online retailer that sells the Fan Timer Unit? Thanks again.

Sounds like the clutch on the AC compressor is slipping, yep. Time for a new one.

I think I just discovered where the leak is coming from. It seems to be from the power steering pump itself just underneath the pulley. Is there a gasket or a seal in the pump that can be replaced or do I have to replace the whole pump itself? Thanks.

Transmission by twa727

Hey guys,
 
I'm just thinking out loud here, but I was reading through some stuff online and noticed that some people don't recommend flushing/replacing the trans fluid on older cars, because that messes up the tranny and forces you to repair or replace it.
 
Here's the thing, my '93 EX with 193K had the transmission replaced 85K in fall 2001...for whatever reason. It was done before I owned the car, but I have the AAMCO documents to prove it. With a little over 100K on this transmission, should I do a flush or should I just leave it be until it gives out (who knows how long that'll be...it's only 7 years old.) I'm split right down the middle, since my transmission isnt old, but yet it's still got some mileage on it.
 
Thanks for any insight!
