#1629 of 1754 Re: Check Engine light comes ON [nikunjd05] by elroy5 Jul 02, 2009 (1:24 pm)
Replying to: nikunjd05 (Jul 02, 2009 6:45 am) EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) There is an EGR valve, and EGR runners in the intake manifold. The runners, and/or the valve can become clogged up. There should be some how-to's, with pictures, on how to clean the runners and the valve on the internet. I used to have one saved, but it's gone now. Do a google search, and you should come up with something. Good luck   If you don't get the problem fixed it could maybe cause problems with the catyllitic converter, cause hesitation (especially on acceleration), and probably hurt gas mileage.

Replying to: nikunjd05 (Jul 02, 2009 6:45 am) hi   Mine has gone on three years ago and still running but a bit rough. I want to repair it asap but with today's economy, I still come up short on doing it.   I found out my code 43 form the book and it's a fuel system supply issue. cybercool
#1631 of 1754 Re: 93 Accord EX Oil Leak behind filter [elroy5] by tmcburney Jul 06, 2009 (12:44 pm)
Replying to: elroy5 (Jun 08, 2009 1:08 pm) Is there a source to determine the nut size for the nut securing the oil cooler? I tried up to 32mm / 1 1/4" sockets but they don't fit, and I cannot find a larger socket unless I buy a 3/4 drive set.   I'd like to know exactly what I need if possible, rather than the hit or miss trips to the HW store I've been making.   Thanks again.

Replying to: tmcburney (Jul 06, 2009 12:44 pm) Will a wrench fit on the nut, and be able to turn enough to remove it? A socket or closed end wrench would be ideal, but this may be one situation where a large adjustable (cresent) wrench, or a good pair of channel-lock pliers are in order. The nut should not be very tight, just make sure you have the wrench/pliers set as tight as possible. Remember how tight it was on there, so you can gauge how tight to install it.

Replying to: elroy5 (Jul 06, 2009 1:22 pm) I have channel locks, vise grips, and an adjustable that will all span the nut. The nut is recessed though, since the oil cooler is like a shallow bowl and the nut sits in the bottom of the bowl. With the space and angle of access, I cant get enough of the nut with anything adjustable to get the initial turn. The vise grips broke loose on two tries and I don't want to strip the thing trying again.   I'll take another run at it today, but was hoping there might be a source to get the size so I can get a socket and get it over with.   Thanks, Tom

Replying to: elroy5 (Jun 30, 2009 7:51 pm) Unless the rotors are TURNING (and dragging against the pads), no heat can be generated.   Putting car in N will save a few drops of gas and slightly cool the transmission - not a bad thing to do, IMO.
#1636 of 1754 Starting Problems by silvertone Jul 16, 2009 (10:14 am)
I just started college. :o) I bought a 1992 Accord EX with 126,000 miles. Two weeks later the car randomly would not start. I left the car with my mechanic to drive for days. BTW he has serviced my parents and grandparents cars for years. He never experienced a problem with my vehicle while he had it. I continue to deal with a random starting issue. The fuel pump has recently been replaced. Help! Replies to this message: elroy5 (Jul 16, 2009 1:22 pm)

Replying to: silvertone (Jul 16, 2009 10:14 am) It could be the electrical part of the ignition switch, or the Main fuel relay. If the car has more problems when it's hot, I suspect main relay. This link has a lot of information about your Accord, and could at least give you some ideas. Good luck http://techauto.awardspace.com/
#1638 of 1754 pricing my car at fair price? what to do? by cybercool Jul 20, 2009 (7:51 am)
Hi all, I have my Accord EX for three years. It was in great shape when I first got it but now problems has arised but I have no time and money to fix my car. I'd like to sell it for a fair price. Here are the pros and cons on my car.   Pros: A/C is ice cold, no dents, drivable, sunroof works, CD radio is working   Cons: driver's window motor is faulty and wont go down, ABS light goes on, D4 light blinks, driver's inside plastic door handle broke.Car hesitates when driving.   What price should I sell it? I feel it needs a complete tune up and it'll be purring like a cat.   Thanks jim Replies to this message: hondatinker (Jul 21, 2009 10:31 am) cybercool (Jul 22, 2009 5:15 am) thegraduate (Jul 22, 2009 8:22 pm) and 1 more...
