Leaking rear caliper
Unless it is cracked, sounds to me like the seals are failing. Centric kits are junk, try rebuilding with an OEM kit- INK DEMON

Has Anyone Replaced This Power Steering Line Before?
You don’t need a hoist to remove the rack on the 6th gens. Contrary to many other models of Accords, the 6th gens have racks with their own mounting brackets, rather than being held in place by the subframe. If you feel that the line(s) you are trying to replace are not easily accessible and you...- INK DEMON

what's a good ball joint press?
While I’m sure you can figure out a way to use a shop press for this, it just isn’t a very practical solution. You definitely do not need to remove the hubs you just need to remove the knuckle assembly. The ideal solution IMO would be using something along the lines of the OTC ball joint...- INK DEMON

P0131 trouble code, rough RPM - with video
Check the fuel pressure. It should read between 38-46 psi and 47-54 psi with the fuel pressure regulator hose disconnected and clamped. Do you have a K20 swapped engine in your car?- INK DEMON

2002 Accord - Few Engine Questions 2.3 VTEC w/Pics
I’m about 8 months late but figured this may be useful to anyone else who searches this site. That exposed tube is the vent for the transmission... there is supposed to be a rubber cap on it (yours is missing). While the VTEC solenoid MIGHT be leaking simply due to the age of the car, that...- INK DEMON

Missfire No.1 and 3 Cylinder, Car shakes on idle, Oil on Spark Plug Thread
If you are considering getting this vehicle fixed, I suggest a leak down test as your next step. Any reputable shop can do it and it will narrow down the cause of your low compression. Given the symptoms, best case scenario would be something on the top end (head gasket, valves, guides, etc)...- INK DEMON

Missfire No.1 and 3 Cylinder, Car shakes on idle, Oil on Spark Plug Thread
This is not a good standard to abide by. You can have no change if you have a burnt/broken valve, cracked head or block, bad rings, bad guides, the list goes on. If swapping parts is the method someone is going to use, they are better off swapping the coil with a coil from a different cylinder...- INK DEMON

Missfire No.1 and 3 Cylinder, Car shakes on idle, Oil on Spark Plug Thread
A valve adjustment would only help if the low compression is due to the valves. The fact that you have oil on the threads is not a good sign. While it could be an issue with the valve guides or seals, the most likely cause, IMO would be worn rings. Usually this is diagnosed by either doing a...- INK DEMON

Engine Seized
Try turning your engine over by hand if you think it is seized. Tow truck drivers aren't mechanics. If you can turn the engine over by hand then it is not seized. If you turn the key and nothing happens, check the main relay as others have mentioned. You can remove the top of the relay to...- INK DEMON

2000 Accord Allows Shift without Break or Key in Ignition
If it's driveable, at least take it over to your local AutoZone to get it scanned for the CEL code. There is a way to check it with a paper clip but given the fact you managed to short something out by replacing bulbs, I'm a little hesitant to tell you how to do it. Start with getting the code...- INK DEMON
