Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (May 11, 2009 8:20 am)  While checking the relays and fuses I found a aftermarket alarm system that look like it was wired by someone with no experience in what they were doing. Also found a toggle switch that seems to shut the power off to the ignition  . I think that is the constance drain that was on battery but not sure. If anyone can give me some info on the car spinning over so fast would be appreciated and thanks in advance.

I have a 1993 Honda Accord LX. I am having a problem with shifting the gears. Regardless if I go from Park to Drive or Reverse, there is a hard shift (you feel it like someone thumping you). And its annoying like that too. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what the problem could be; other than rebuilding the transmission? I appreciate all helpful suggestions.

Hi, My 93 Accord EX is dripping oil on to the exhaust. The leak originates from something between the oil filter and the engine. There is something that looks like a tin can attached to the engine, then the filter attaches to this thing. There is at least one hose attached to the "thing" as well. This part is not mentioned or shown in my Chilton's guide. I originally thought the leak came from the filter itself, but changing it made no difference. Next I thought oil was dripping down from the oil sending unit on to this thing, but changing the oil sending unit also made no difference. I finally got under the car with a flashlight, after cleaning all excess oil from the area, and with a light on the area can see the leak originating from between the engine and this attachment. It leaks only when the engine is running. Does anyone know what this is, if there is a seal between it and the engine, what it is called, and whether it can be replaced? Thanks, Tom

O-ring for the oil cooler. http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/auto/jsp/mws/prddisplay.jsp?inputstate=5&cat- cgry1=ACCORD&catcgry2=1993&catcgry3=4DR+EX&catcgry4=KA4AT&catcgry5=OIL+PUMP-OIL+- STRAINER

I bought my daughter a 93 accord se (used of course) for her 17th birthday, It made it from the scammer who sold it to us to our house, then died. After calming down, and not going to jail(just kidding), I managed to by a junkyard motor, cleaned it up and installed it. The motor runs great I have no regrets there. Her motor was a f22a6, the motor I replaced it with was a f22a4. I used the a6's intake on the a4 block because of the vacuum box or whatever it is thats on the back of the a6's intake. Everything went together great. I also used the existing tranny. I flushed all fluids, and replaced them all up to specs. Here's where the problem(s) come into play. After driving the car for about 10-15mins the engine light comes on and the transmission acts like its slipping ( high rpms no go). The funny part is while the car is moving I can shift to neutral turn the key off then restart the car and the problem goes away, at least for another 10-15mins, then the whole process stars over. I have pulled the code from the engine light it is 12 egr problem I have cleaned it twice, cleared the code, but still get the light I will check solenoids and such next for that problem. This car drives like a dream until the engine light comes on, The D4 light never comes on ever. The only code I get is 12. But sure enough when it comes on the tranny acts up. I pulled the TCM and gave it a good look it appears to be clean nothing out of the ordinary. I have cleaned all transmission sensors and solenoids. They seem to be working or at least there are no codes from them. The transmission runs great until the engine light comes on. Should i be able to get D4 codes on this car if its a transmission problem? Can the code 12 cause a tranny type issue? I have tried to look these type problems up, and this seems to be the most knowledgeable forum on the net. Sorry for such a long post, but I wanted to give as much info as I could. Thank you in advance for any ideas.
