Some 1990-1993 Honda Accords are known to have this problem. I had a problem with the driver side door not opening and took it to a Honda Dealer, he drilled out the lock and put in a new one. The labor cost was a killer and cost me $400+.

Possible transmission problem? by willielo29

I have a 91 Accord that cold starts fine and will drive for a minute or 2 but won't shift into the higher gears, it sounds like it's looking for the gears but not finding it and slowly stalls and won't go again fora few hours. A friend found that I was low in transmission fluid but said it's not making the type of sound that a transmission problem usually makes.
 
I had the transmission flushed and fluids added and it drove fine for 2 weeks, then the problem came back again but the transmission fluid isn't low.
 
Any ideas? Is it a transmission problem?

92 accord automatic transmission shifting problem. by 94shadow

I got my cars auto. trans. working but, sometimes it goes back to its old self. Doesn't shift correctly but when I remove the radio, back-up light fuse and wait about 20 seconds, the car starts to shift correctly for awhile. Then it does the same thing again.
This car is driving me crazy.

Changing 92 Accord intake gasket by scott56

Have a surging idle after engine warms up. Sprayed carb cleaner around and found that the intake gasket is leaking. What is all involved in changing the gasket?
Can it be done pretty easily in your driveway. How do you get to the bolts on the bottom side of the intake?
 
Thanks, Scott.

A little heads up here.
 
You say you only get the surging idle AFTER the engine warms up?
 
This is contradictory to the behavior of a leaking intake gasket. As the engine warms up, there is an expansion of metal, and so really the surging should be worse with a cold engine than a warm one.
 
I only mention this not to contradict your obvious correct diagnosis of an intake leak, but only to suggest that this leak may not be the cause of your surging idle, or not the entire cause.
 
You might *carefully* snug down the intake bolts --16 foot lbs ONLY
 
The "book" says a 4 hour job for a professional mechanic, so without knowing your skill level, figure ALL DAY.
 
Let us know how the "snugging up" does (use a torque wrench please) and if no good, let's talk further.

Sound like you might have a problem with the shift-lock solenoid. Is the car doing things like blowing fuses when you step on the brake?

transmission trouble codes?? by xhorta

this is a great site and i appreciate the information.
having trouble with 92 honda accord automatic trany. when put in drive, takes off very slowly. i have to shift to 2nd or 1st gear for car to take off more rapidly. in the meantime the "D" light on pannel flashes while i'm driving and when it's on park.i have read previous post and from what i gather the trany computer is trying to kick out a trouble code, or maybe the computer itself is malfunctioning. can someone tell me where i can find the numeric codes and thier translations. i tried a link that had been posted previously but it was no longer available. i have not attempted to get the codes by connecting a paper clip to the tranny computer yet, but will be sometime during the week. thanks for any tips, advice, information anyone might have.
