#1 of 3 2001 Honda Odyssey Engine and TCS problems by darksidemoon

*I'm posting this for my dad, who is at work. I won't be able to provide any more information than this until he gets back*
 
Our odyssey, which has had no problems till now, started acting odd today. The TCS light came on and will not turn off, and when we accelerate the rpms first dip severely then go up erratically, then drop down quickly. After about 3 minutes of running the car the TCS light comes on and will not turn off until the car is turned off. Pressing the TCS button will not turn it off. Also, turning the A/C off while the engine is on either severely drops the RPM, or outright kills the engine. We're thinking it might be a computer issue. Help/ideas would be much appreciated!

Haha, it turns out it accidentally got filled almost entirely with E85. We're going to try and siphon it out.

I have the exact same problem, but the gas is reg. unleaded and it is from the same gas station as always. The catalytic converter stinks bad too when in operation. Any ideas???
