Usually it's just a "bayonet" type blade that locks in place by means of a small peg. you insert a screwdriver and lift the blade off the tiny peg and PULL ---usually you pull down toward the car. Very often the place you buy the blades from will do this for you.

Hi Honda Owners, i'm New Here and i hope to get some help with my small problem, i bought an Accord 92 Ex a year ago, now is 156K my Fuel Gauge was working fine until i change a dead ligth bulb in the cluster(ABS) some time ago, and since then i dont know what happened with the Fuel Level B/c always mark F eventhoug i'm running out of gas. I took it to a mechanic b/c i was having problems with my brakes ABS light was lit (diagnostic was dead ABS unit), so i changed the ABS control Unit ($20 in a yunkyard) problem solved and brakes work excellent, and then he tried to fix the problem with Fuel gauge, he took the cluster out and inspected the gauges, but he could not figured what was causing this problem, so he said that maybe is something related with fuel tank...
any suggestion?

Bouncy tire feel. by cybercool

Hi all,
 
My Honda accord 93 has worn tires that feel hard and has no bounce. How can I get back that new car bouncy feel in my Accord? Should I get new tires before looking into springs and strut replacement?
 
Thanks

Oxygen sensor and timing belt by cybercool

hi all,
 
My Accord shakes a bit when at idle and I know it needs a tune up. Should I get the oxygen sensor and timing belt replaced? Or should I get a full complete tune-up? I just want my car to driving smooth without shaking. Thanks, Cybercool

heats up by cybercool

Hi all,
After replacing my radiator, top hose and thermostat less than two years, I've noticed at a stop light my Accord's temp gauge starts to rise. There is no visible leaks when my car is parked over night. Can there be an internal leak somewhere? I've added water periodically but I think I'll have to do a thorough flush. Your thoughts please.
 
Thanks
Cybercool

Big oil Leak by jeeper81

I have a 91 Accord LX Coupe. My girlfriend drives it to work nights at a hospital 6 blocks away. I went to run an errand today and noticed a 1ft by 1ft puddle of oil under the front. Then I noticed a trail of oil and hopped in my other car to run my errand. On the way home I drove by her work and followed the trail of oil all the way home. I checked the oil, drove it around back and parked it on ramps. Oil was pouring out. Then I wiped everything off and started it again just for 30 sec. again oil pouring out. I read in my chiltons manual about changing the oil pan gasket, then about changing the oil pump. The manual didnt say anything about the seals. When I started it again, I noticed that the oil was coming from right between the oil pan and the serpantine belt. It seemed to be wet with oil around the oil pan and up the side of the timing belt housing. How do I tell if it is just the oil pan gasket or the seals and pump? I paid $1700 for this car 9 months ago and have never noticed a leak. I can do the oil pan gasket I think, but I am not willing to tackle the pump, timing belt and seals. Should I have my mechanic look at it or move on with the oil pan gasket change to see if that fixes it. Not sure if the car is worth the cost of the timing belt, seals, oil and water pump repair.
Thanks, Jeeper81

Oil pan gaskets don't usually leak oil that quickly (pouring out), so I think it's probably the seal that popped out. I would clean the area as much as possible, then try to determine exactly where the oil is coming from. If it is the seal, it's a pretty big job to change it.
