I've got no idea (not a great mechanic here), but I would suggest posting this in the board that is for the specific year for your mom's car. You'll find it here, the 1990-1993 Problems and Solutions Board. Good luck with your quest for answers!

Are you saying that the engine doesn't respond (engine doesn't rev up and down with the accelerator), or the engine responds, but the wheels don't? If the engine doesn't respond, you may just have a disconnected throttle cable.

2001 Honda Accord V6 Timing Belt

I have been told by the dealer my timing belt needs to be replaced  70,000 miles. I thought the V6 had a timing chain. If so how often should a belt or chain be replaced if the car is running fine.

Yes, the V6 has a timing belt. The 4cyl. has a chain. The owner's manual should have the mileage/time recommended interval for changing it. I would go by the normal conditions, unless your car is subjected to really severe conditions. After the interval for normal conditions, you are gambling with the life of your engine.

I think every 90,000 is about right, but check your manual and do what it says. Your engine will run fine until the belt snaps; there will be no warning of its deterioration; one day, if not replaced, it will just break, wreaking havoc (and thousands of dollars of damage) in your engine. Get it done as you manual states (my 1996 Accord I-4 is at every 90k miles).

So I finally took the car to the mechanic I told ya'll about. He looked at it, drove it, and said that the front mount "moves a little bit" but nothing is knocking around so "dont drive it like a hot rod and this car will be with you awhile..." He said that even with the movement it isnt ready for new mounts. NOW, on another note. I took my girl to the north georgia mountains this weekend and on the way up and back I noticed that my car still pulls in the same direction as it did before the alignment. WHAT IS UP WITH THAT!?!?!?!?!? So regardless to say I am pretty cheesed. Im going to call GP Honda and let you guys know whats up. PEACE AND HAPPY MOTORING.

tranny warranty

I heard Honda has extended tranny warranty on some accords to 93 mos. or 109k miles. Does this warranty cover only specific malfunctions that Honda has acknowledged to or does it cover ANY tranny malfunctions, i.e slipping, hard shifts, unexpected or slow downshifts, etc.
I have an appt. with the dealer to have my tranny checked due to slipping and I don't want to let them come up with the old "this problem isn't covered by the warranty" excuse.

it's beautiful up there. this past weekend was a good time to go. some good hiking up there. watch out for the vehicles and motorcycles comming over the line! happens too often.
was it pulling before you got up there? i mean, those aren't the roads to be assessing alignment issues on since they are really canted drastically away from the middle to put you away from oncomming traffic. better to do that on the interstate.
let us know if GPH can figure your issue out or not.
