    Misfire after hydrolock

    It was a real heavy rain storm and started to flash flood. Put a bottle of Isoheet in the gas tank last week when it happened. Bought an offset screwdriver kit today and the map sensor came right off. It was cracked by the screw holes and the top started to separate from the bottom. Replaced it...

    Misfire after hydrolock

    It's two little Phillips head screws. Came off the v6 in a second but the tb is right under the firewall on the i4. Guess I need an S screwdriver or take off the tb then the map sensor

    Misfire after hydrolock

    Right now I'm thinking the map sensor went bad when water passed through the intake. Causing it to dump more fuel in and foul out the plugs. I'm hoping replacing the map sensor and another new set of plugs will solve the problem.

    Misfire after hydrolock

    There is a click click click at idle. How do I remove the map sensor? Can't get to the far screw because of the firewall. I have a spare to replace it with from my v6

    Misfire after hydrolock

    Car starts and runs without any ticks or knocks so I don't think the internals were damaged. I'll probably buy a compression tester and do it myself so I have the tool. Pulled the plugs and the tips were black and dry. Running rich correct? Could it be a sensor?

    Misfire after hydrolock

    So last Saturday I was driving in heavy rain and hit two larger puddles at speed. The second one was on a side street as the car died on its way out of the water and wouldn't start. Pulled the plugs and cranked and shot most of the water out. Let it dry then hit it with a shop vac on each...

    What'd you do to your accord today?

    Car came with the OEM raybrig fogs but unfortunately one is cracked and neither turned on. Replaced the bulb in the non broken lens and spliced the blue wire into the red/black wire so I can turn it on with the parking lights

    Washed her for the first time in my ownership and rain-x'd all windows sunroof and mirrors, and vacuumed the interior. She cleaned up well and is finally starting to feel like its MY car

    No more use of the 6 disc changer so I pulled it out of the armrest. Rerouted the hood release cable through the engine bay so it cant be yanked though the fender liner to open the hood. Removed the pinstripe which came off 100x easier than expected, literally peeled it off like a sticker...

    What'd you do to your accord today?

    My v6 is officially a donor/parts car. Took the front head rests, rear seat bottoms, swapped cupholder and center console trim from woodgrain to charcoal, replaced the under radio cubby with the less sticky one, all led bulbs, and the alpine single din all from the v6 into the i4. Also replaced...

    What'd you do to your accord today?

    Quit on my 02 v6 after blowing the trans for the third time in my ownership at 254k. Picked up my second 6th gen the other day, another black coupe, but this time with the f23 and 5 speed. Spent the day trying to get the radiator fans running. Determined the driver side fan needs to be...

    Temp Gauge and Radiator fans not working

    Does anyone have the part number for the engine coolant temp sensor? Auto zone had one but the wrong size. Hooked up the scangauge and it was reading the coolant temp at around 170-180 with a max of 208 If I wire the ect sensor to an on/off switch and watch the temp would that be fine for the...

    Temp Gauge and Radiator fans not working

    Determined the driver side fan motor is blown. Took a fan from an 02 v6 and ghetto rigged it in there, now both fans run with the a/c on. Also unplugged the ECT sensor and jumped the wire so now both fans are running the whole time the engine is on, better than never running at all. Coolant temp...

    Temp Gauge and Radiator fans not working

    Just picked up another 6th gen, 2000 f23a1 with the 5 speed. Didn't realize this until I got home but the water temperature gauge doesn't work, the needle stays stuck below the C. Also the radiator fans never started running. The passenger side fan runs when the A/C is on but the driver side...

    Snow and ice packed in my wheels and suspension gave the car a death wobble above 40mph. Cleaned all that out today. Gotta stop having fun in the snow. Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk
