Re: 1990 Honda Accord LX Starting Issue (HELP PLEASE) [rya2048666]
Will it start when the temp is warm? And, Is the CEL on when you try to start but not starting? My 1991 would start when warm, or if I put a drop light against the distributor housing for an hour. Tell-tale sign would be, when the car won't start the CEL is on, and stays on when key is turned on, but if it goes out after a few seconds ... Read More

steering wheel angle
The latch that releases and enables me to adjust the angle of my steering wheel on my 1991 Honda Accord EX has become frozen. I don't want to force it or I might damage it. Is there an easy way to release the latch? Is the steering system otherwise safe although frozen in this manner?

Re: 2011 Accord Wagon? [ushy66]
ushy66- Most likely not. The TSX wagon is the real Accord wagon. For us here State side, we get the wonderfully awkward Crosstour. My father had a 1991 Accord wagon, which has more cargo room then the Crosstour, got better fuel economy and was actually fun to drive. What ever happened to Honda??

Honda Accord questions

Look closely at your front rotors--Honda spent the money to paint black the area on the rotor closest ... Read More

Honda Fixed Problem on 12 Year old Car at No Charge!
On a different topic, I had an interesting experience with my 1991 Accord. 91 may have been the only year where they had the seatbelts that opened when the car door opened, and automatically slid over and closed on you when you got in and closed the door. Well, my seatbelt mechanism broke, meaning I couldn't use the driver's side seatbelt. This happened in about 2003, when the car was 12 ... Read More

Re: Honda I-4 RPM's at 70/80 MPH [robertsmx]
Here's a good example of 8000 rpm and 300K miles co-existing on an original (1991) engine. This is currently a daily driver. And if you happen to be in Dallas-Ft Worth Area, an Acura dealership has an on-display car with over 700K miles to go with 8000 rpm. So, it ain't all about rpm, but design and engineering, and considerations to durability. Besides, the last thing I would worry about in ... Read More

Re: Giddy Smirky Pride [targettuning]
The stat isn't based on volume, but based on per 100 cars (I think). That said, not all thefts may be for parts, but that can be assumed for most cases.

It was beginning of a new era that has led to ... Read More

could very well be the passenger side, as that one takes up the most torque and thus is more prone to wear. Other than that, you'd want to check motor mounts. But don't despair if you replaced the wrong side; generally it's a great idea to do both at the same time.

Timing belt was due at 90k, if that breaks, the valves hit the pistons and it destroys the motor. That is about a $400-600 service (replace the waterpump, timing belt, etc). The transmission should be serviced more often then never. At this point, I would probably write off the transmission and run it until it dies.

Re: HP wars [scape2]
I noticed in a few posts the drum of Honda/Toyota's lasting longer, being better quality, ect popping up again. I used to subscribe to that mentality. I have owned 3 domestics over the last 15 years and all have been just fine.. explain why Honda/Toyota group? Easy....if you bought a Camry 15 years ago, it would still most likely run just fine today. You, on the other hand, went domestic and ... Read More

Re: Toyota radio commercial [thegraduate]
I've got 162,000 miles on my 1996 Accord now (clicked over yesterday. Same engine parts, only a new fan motor and brake master cylinder after 10.5 years. Not bad. I wonder how long I can keep this up (driving this old car so cheaply, that is). I hear this quite often, but a friend and neighbor of mine bought their son a 1991 Accord back in 2001, so he would have ... Read More

"I hear this quite often, but a friend and neighbor of mine bought their son a 1991 Accord back in 2001, so he would have a car while he was away at College. It had about 150,000 miles on it and the transmission was junk in 6 months. I think it's more about proper maintenance no matter what the vehicle brand is. Honda's will go bad just like the rest IMHO." ... Read More

RE: Camry
Gee that picture of the Camry a few threads back looks better than the U.S. version in my opionion I also saw the alleged new picture of the 2008 Honda Accord by doing a google search. Those pictures look pretty good also. Hopefully, Honda rises to the occassion, but I would not expect too many changes (other than a slight boost in hp to the 4 cylinder car and a greater ...

Hooked on Honda Accord
I bought a 92Honda Accord EX auto sedan in 1991. I had that car for 12 years. As the years went by the car never seemed to get old. Everything still worked like it did when it was new, and nothing broke or came apart. The more I drove the car, the more I liked it. All the cars I had before and after (chevys, fords, nissans, toyotas) started feeling "old" ... Read More

Re: 1990 Honda Accord EX Not Starting [swoopineagle]
I have a 1991 honda accord. The car would not start during the summer one year. I would work all day and go out to my car and it would not turn over. I would try to jump the car and nothing. I read somewhere that the master relay, found under the dash on the driver's side on the left side of the car, goes bad and won't start during hot ... Read More

Re: 1991 Honda Accord Selt Belt light flashing and beeping [donswartz]
"Please I beg you please help" is rather desperate. That chime must really annoy you. ;) perhaps there are limit switche(s) in the belt runs that detect end of travel. maybe one of them is disconnected or broken. here's a picture: http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/auto/jsp/mws/prddisplay.jsp?inputstate=5&cat- cgry1=Accord&catcgry2=1991&catcgry3=4DR+LX&catcgry4=KA4AT&catcgry5=SEAT+BELT+%28- 1%29 this diagram seems to suggest only one switch per belt run at the front of travel (closest to the front of the car). hazarding a guess, the ...

Re: 1991 Honda accord Starting Problems [nathaneddy]
I would check for spark. You can get these gizmos that go inline with the spark plug wire before the plug itself from HFT that will flash when the spark goes through. If that flashes, you have spark. I have had a few of these and never had a fuel pump go out. The main relay I have replaced on each. There is a procedure in the Haynes manual to test ... Read More

I tried not to panic and tried again. About the thrid time doing this it started right up. I havn't driven it for a week because I wasn't trusting it. I just got in it ... Read More

Re: 1991 Honda accord Starting Problems [machas]
1. Take the battery back to Wal Mart, should still be under warranty. If they have an auto service area, they should be able to check the charging system. 2. If you haven't replaced the main relay I would think that might be suspect. If the car is cranking, the battery is okay. The main relay energizes the fuel pump, and is prone to failure. In Hondas in my life that ... Read More

1991 Honda accord Starting Problems
Mil: 130K miles Symptoms: Doesn't start.. it tries to crank but didn't start. What I did: took the car to walmart, had battery replaced after testing the old battery. It worked fine for 3 weeks and didn't start again. This time I took it to a Mobile Gas station repair shed. The mechanic said battery is dead !! suggested me to replace battery. He said there is no problem with starter/alternator. ... Read More

Re: Ongoing quality issues...... [gee35coupe]
gee35 is right about Honda working with people. I have a prime example that astounded me. My father had a 2002 CR-V LX (now known for their oil-filter problem) where, at 36k miles, his oil filter fell OFF. All services were always done at the dealership. The selling dealership offered to give him a 7 yr/100,000 mile warranty for his trouble. He still wasn't happy with them...They ended up buying the ... Read More

Re: 1991 Honda Accord Coupe - Change Windshield washer Reservoir [jackger]
I'm sure it's not that hard to get out. I'd have to see it. The Japanese don't do stupid stuff like that. There must be something you can pull or unbolt out of the way.

Re: 1991 Honda Accord Coupe - Change Windshield washer Reservoir [Mr_Shiftright]
ON a 91 Honda accord, only the filler neck of the reservoir is visible. The actual reservoir, motor, etc. are all below a metal shelf, which the filler neck goes through. ON the underside, it appears that all the wheel well covers are underneith. Any thought are appreciated. Jack

Re: 1991 Honda Accord Coupe - Change Windshield washer Reservoir [Mr_Shiftright]
I haven't done it to repair a water reservoir crack, but I would try silicon caulk which is flexible or polyurethane adhesive in a caulking tube from Lowes named PL-1. It's a quick grab and dries in several minutes and sticks well to plastics.

Re: 1991 Honda Accord Coupe - Change Windshield washer Reservoir [jackger]
It shouldn't be that hard to access the reservoir and pull it out. Sometimes you can epoxy the crack in the plastic jug but that's a 50-50 bet. Sometimes the leak is the gasket around the little electric pump. Best to take it out and test it in the sink.

1991 Honda Accord Coupe - Change Windshield washer Reservoir
I have a 1991 Honda Accord. Every time I fill the windshield washer Reservoir it drains all over the driveway. Either !) a hose is loose, 2) a hose is holed, 3) the Reservoir has a leak. Short of dismantling the entire car, can anyone provide direction as to what needs to be removed to get access to the Reservoir / hoses? Thanks

I drive an Altima....
And for the most part its been a good car, but I still prefer the Accord over everything else in this class, especially the 06 Accord models. But you can't beat the Hyundai's value these days. The only glaring fault I have with Hyundai is the fact that you can't get a manual on anything but the GL models (that's not an issue for the MAJORITY of buyers in this class) ... Read More
Any downside to buying a hybrid?

No Hybrid
I still don't think I'd buy a hybrid. The cost is just too high for the amount of gas you might save if you get the EPA mileage they are rated at. The Prius is probably the only hybrid I'd consider and only if I can get past the Toyota dealer gouging. I will not pay 25-26K for a car with an MSRP of less than 22K. The only other hybrids ...
