Multiple Misfire error codes by kkaufman1
Nov 15, 2009 (11:30 am)

Car started running rough and we received multiple misfire codes. we noticed the plugs were worn so we installed new plugs. we then decided to test the coils, the only read I can get of the three terminals is 1.7 to 1.8 K Ohms.
we tested against a good running honda and new out of box coil. seem to be in range.
Any Ideas or sugestions?
Thanks, Kurt

Could be the crank position sensor. If you could get the OBD II codes read, that would help narrow the possibilities.

I understand the coils can test O.K. and still be failing to groung/Block through the coil shaft.
one or more B.O. Coils could cause the error codes I am getting.
Best Place to get OEM honda parts at best prices?
 
Thanks, Kurt

O.K. Here it is.
The Fix, One (1) Bad Coil.
Had to run them in a known good working honda, One at a time to locate the bad one.
 
Yes it was the last one tested. I know, Bummer. !!!!
I have a 50K spray insolation I want to test on the old one just for the hell of it.
I did replace with a new part and runs great.
Well, Thanks for the support ~

Bad ORVR - onboard vapor recovery by jstevans

Hi,
 
My mechanic tells me the diagnostics report says the ORVR on my 1999 Accord V6 has failed. Well, at 110,000 miles it's about the first thing that ever broke so no big deal.
 
However, he says it's 7 hours of labor because he has to remove the gas tank and a lot of other huge and ugly stuff.
 
I read on one site that this can be accessed through the trunk - the guy said he actually cut a hole in the bottom of the trunk and got it done a it faster and with less disruption. BTW - he did it with metal shears so he didn't make sparks that would have blown him, and his Honda, up into the sky.
 
Does anyone have any insight? I'd sure like to save a bunch of money on labor.

If I were going to do the job myself, I would do it the right way, with a shop manual, rather than cutting a hole in my trunk. The gas tank is not that hard to remove, when empty, You just have to do it, and not try short-cuts, that usually don't work. Just my opinion, of course.

Never heard of this failing outside of tank-toppers.
 
I'm not implying that you do this (really; random things wear out and go bad when cars age - I have a '96 so I understand ), but for those that top off their gas tank, trying to get every last drop in there, remember how expensive this can be. When the pump clicks off, be done pumping; repairing the Vapor Recovery System is apparently not cheap!
