#20 of 60 Re: HELP HELP [mickydan] by preludemama Jan 09, 2008 (9:43 am)
Replying to: mickydan (Jun 05, 2007 2:39 pm) I'm on my second Prelude and my son is on his first. EVERY ONE OF THE did the same thing when shifting into reverse. It's a Honda ~ or at least a Prelude ~ thing as far as I'm concerned. I never FORCED it into ANY gear. What I do is either shift back and forth into some other gears (1st to 2nd for example) first, then try shifting into reverse, which worked a lot of the time. If that didnot work, I simple put the car into reverse when the motor was off. No problem that way, EVER. A third suggestion is to pump the clutch in and out a few times, then try it.
#21 of 60 93 Prelude Idle by wvlude Jan 16, 2008 (3:23 pm)
Hello. I have a 93 Prelude. She has a 94 engine that my cousin replaced about 2 years ago. One problem I am having is that during start up she climbs to about 3k rpm and while idling while she will rev up to about 2.5 and back down continuously. Unfortunately he has since moved away and I don't have the space nor honestly any idea how to work on her. Any suggestions would be great. Thanks.

Replying to: tg_357 (Oct 17, 2007 2:49 pm) Does it do it all the time?? Mine has a similar problem, but always at 3500 rpm, as if it has a governor on the motor... Still not quite sure what the REAL underlying problem is, but it seems likely to be in the "fire" area of the vehicle.....   I've put on new distributor, changed fuel filter, new spark plugs, and all sorts of stuff... next thing is to install new dist cap/rotor button, check spark plugs & wires again..... Although it runs much, much better since I reconnected the plug wire that was disconnected from the distributor..... lol, sometimes things can be so simple they are overlooked!!   Good luck, let me know if you find the problem and what it was.....
#23 of 60 HELP!!! by kyheadhunter Feb 09, 2008 (10:50 pm)
I got a 1996 Honda Prelude with a v-tech engine (sweet). Anyway I'm having a problem shifting into gear. My shifter won't go in to gear unless i put it in gear while the car is off. Then when i turn it on it starts to go while i have the clutch in. Then i can go and gear up but when i try and gear down it won't go in to gear again. I have already changed the clutch master cylinder and the slave cylinder disengages all the way. Any ideas to help me out!!!! Replies to this message: mattij (Mar 06, 2008 5:27 am)

Replying to: wvlude (Jan 16, 2008 3:23 pm) ok I had the same problem with mine I have a 92 prelude. If you look at your throttle body on the under side of it there will be a smaller piece that unbolts from the throtlle body as a whole. It has something to do with your idle speed. It also has coolant running throught it. pull the hose off of it and unbolt it from the throttle body and replace it. or you could get a whole new throttle body, but that can be expensive.(Be careful though. It is a pain in the but to reach all the bolts, which actually take a philips head srew driver. And unless you have small hands it can also be hard to reach.) I replaced it and it fixed my problem completely. I've never had any trouble with it again. I hope this helps in some way.

Replying to: feee (May 16, 2007 9:18 am) Replacing oil and filter might help. Maybe adding an additive??? Something like lucas might help if you can get it. Question: is lucas sold in U.K.??? Sorry, I live in the U.S.

Replying to: kyheadhunter (Feb 09, 2008 10:50 pm) Mine BB1, there was same symptoms. The clutch fluid hose above the gearbox was leaking little bit. And therefore was unable to maintain pressure in it.   At Honda they said that it is impossible that the hose brokes. But it brokes.   Matti
