what exactly does the service bulletin 98-081 cover?
 
--It covers emission issues, which in reality is a LOT... I got the list and it's really long... And it gives me an extended warranty up to 150,000 miles, or 14 years... Pretty nice... I already had my Distributor and Speed Sensor replaced, and a free Tune Up at 75,000.
 
Do a Google on this...
 
BUT, as much as I understand (though not totally sure), you going to a Honda Service, complaining about the car is not gonna make them pull out service bulletin 98-081... You need to have the "Check Engine" light to come on. Again, not positively sure...
 
Check with a Honda Service. You've got nothing to lose.

...Forgot to mention all 6 fuel injectors being replaced free under this serive bulletin at around 74,000 miles, when the car stalled and the Check Engine light came on....

1994 Honda accord stalling by dem1104

I have a 94 Honda Accord 125,000 mile never had a major repair. I just had to replace the exhaust a few weeks ago. All of a sudden coincidentally it started making a loud noise and started to stall here and there. Got the exaust fixed from front to back. It didn't stall the first few times out but today it is stalling frequently. I filled it with gas and added dry gas last week. It seemed to help, but now it is stalling even more. It seems to be when I am slowing down and press the accelerator to get going again. It stalled once on the highway I was on cruise doing 65 and accelerated to pass. That was pretty scary. It starts right back up once it has been turned off pause for a minute.I have a very fixed income and wondered if anyone might have a clue.?
Thanks,
J.e.d.

97 Accord - replacing Power Door Lock Actuator (buzzing sound) by techman41973

I have a 97 accord coupe with about 160K. When locking my power locks, the door lock actuator in the passenger side door makes a loud buzzing sound.
I took apart the door panel and looked at the necessary steps in service manual.
I have the option to buy a replacement actuator or a new latch with an actuator already attached.
 
 72115-SV2-003 ACTUATOR ASSY., R. DOOR LOCK $88.45
 72110-SV2-013 LOCK ASSY., R. FR. POWER DOOR $136.53
 
I would prefer to buy just the actuator and attach it to the old latch. (would save me about $50). Can anyone attest to the difficulty in doing this? Or is it best to replace the entire module (latch + actuator completely assembled).
 
Also when removing the outdoor door handle (necessary to replace the actuator), there are two bolts (accessed from inside the door) any tips in how on how to remove the hard-to-reach bolt?

I don't know, but my actuator has died in my 96 sedan (156k miles) on the right rear door, too. The dealer quoted me $220 to fix it. I left it alone.

Call around to area auto recyclers ("junk yards"). Even if you guys have to pay someone to install a used replacememnt, I believe you'd still be money ahead over what take-yer-money-ships would charge to install a new one.

I have a 94 Accord LX that was experiencing random stalling while driving at different speeds. However, it didn't seem to happen during acceleration, it was purely random.
 
I checked several different things including the ignition coil and fuel injector circuits, but finally replaced the distributor as a last ditch effort. After replacing the distributor nearly one year ago, I haven't experienced the stall problem again. If you narrow it down to the distributor, I recommend purchasing from Distributor King (I bought through them on Ebay). The distributor was high quality, but low $$$.
