Replying to: cybercool (Apr 30, 2008 6:30 pm) The ABS light comes on for problems with the speed sensors, problems with the computer brain, or problems with the hydraulic actuator. No, getting new brake pads will not fix the ABS light. |

Replying to: miyage007 (Apr 30, 2008 1:56 pm) The belt deflection is: BELT DEFLECTION [1] New Belt 9.5 - 11.5 mm (0.37 - 0.45 in) Used Belt 12.5 - 16.0 mm (0.50 - 0.62 in) OR you can use: BELT TENSION [2] New Belt 700 - 900 N (70 - 90 kg, 154 - 198 lbs) Used Belt 350 - 500 N (35 - 50 kg, 77 - 110 lbs) [1] As measured between pulleys with 22 lbs (10 Kg) of force. A used belt is defined as been continuously running for five minutes. [2] Using tension gauge. When using a new belt, first adjust the deflection or tension to the values for a new belt, then run the engine for five minutes and readjust the deflection or tension to the values for used belt. |

My Honda was driving fine yesterday. This morning, I could not start it-- the key would not turn and the shiftstick would not move. My ten-year old son was fumbling inside the car yesterday but he denied touching anything except the garage door opener. What happened? What to do? Thanks for any advice you can give.

Replying to: bubuyog3 (May 01, 2008 2:17 pm) When you mentioned your son was in the car, but he didn't say he touched anything, I thought maybe he grabbed the steering wheel, gave it a twist, locking the steering wheel but also locking it under torque. That can lock things up until you turn it. Mrbill

Any one have DIY suggestions on how to replace the air compressor in a '92 Honda Accord? Is there a simple step by step list of instructions?

Replying to: diyw2b (May 02, 2008 2:41 pm) 2. Use a Refrigerant Recovery/Recycling System to recover the refrigerant from the system. 3. Remove: o power steering mounting bolt and nut o adjusting bolt o adjusting bolt bracket o power steering belt o power steering pump 4. Remove the two cruise control actuator mounting bolts, disconnect the connector and remove the cruise control actuator. 5. Remove the alternator harness clamp and disconnect the alternator harness. 6. Remove: o alternator mounting bolt and nut o adjusting bolt o adjusting bolt bracket o compressor belt o alternator 7. Disconnect the connectors from the condenser fan, and remove the connector from the compressor. Remove the three mounting bolts and remove the condenser fan shroud. CAUTION: Do not damage the radiator fins when removing the fan shroud. 8. Disconnect the suction and discharge hoses from the compressor. CAUTION: Cap the open fittings immediately to keep moisture and dirt out of the system. 9. Remove the four compressor mounting bolts and compressor. CAUTION: Do not damage the radiator fins when removing the fan shroud. 10. If necessary, remove the compressor bracket as shown. 11. Install in the reverse order of removal, and: o If a new compressor is installed, calculate the amount of refrigerant oil in the A/C system by draining the oil through the suction fitting on the old compressor: 100 cc (3 1/3 fl oz) minus contents of old compressor, equals the amount of refrigerant oil to be drained from new compressor. * Replace 0-rings with new ones at the pipe joints, and apply a thin coat of refrigerant oil before installing them. * Do not damage the radiator fins when installing the compressor. * Be careful to connect the alternator harness as shown. * Adjust the belt. * Charge the system. * Test the performance. |
