    JDM F23A swap

    I apologise if this has been gone over but I'm currently looking into swapping my F23A1 for a JDM F23A after a little incident involving a large puddle, no fender liner and no intake baffle. After some googlefu it looks like I'll have to swap over my current intake and exhaust manifolds as well...

    no crank. no start problem.

    Another thing you might want to check is the battery itself. If you have a helper have him hold a volt meter across the battery. Should read around 12 volts maybe a little higher. Then try to start the car and see if the voltage drops while it's under load. If the voltage doesn't drop then I...

    What'd you do to your accord today?

    1998 Accord: tentatively sold it. 2002 Accord: tried to make a $5 short shifter which works great for about 5-10 miles before coming loose. And nobody likes a loose shifter.

    OFFICIAL 6th Gen Accord Random Picture Thread

    My green Accord is getting sold here pretty soon (most likely) and I took a photo of both my Accords the morning after I bought the black car, so I decided to take a final photo of them both together before the green one is gone. Check out the link in my sig if you want to see what all I've done...
  6. Probably the last picture that will be taken with both of my Accords in it.

    Jpocolypse's 2002 Accord Coupe EX F23A1 5MT (56K)

    Thanks. I'm hoping to get my 98 accord sold here soon (the car on the right in the first post). Once that's gone I should have some money to put into the 02 and get it working better.

    My new 1998 Honda accord ex coupe v6

    Nice find if I may say so. Looks like it just rolled out of the factory. Got any future plans for it?

    98 Honda Accord making strange noises

    Putting a load on the engine doesn't make it stop idling. As long as your not pushing on the gas it's idling. (Assuming the car is stationary anyways) I would let it warm up and have it in park then turn on the AC and the rear defroster and see if the noise changes.

    Help!!!!!

    I had what sounds like a similar problem that ended up being the distributor. Here's a link to my old thread. I would give that a read and see if your problem sounds similar. http://www.6thgenaccord.com/forums/showthread.php?t=50658

    98 Honda Accord making strange noises

    Does the noise change if you turn the steering wheel? And does it do it just in drive? I would try putting various loads on the engine like AC on/off, headlights on/off, rear defroster on/off etc. If it just does it in drive and not in park it sounds like it might have some sort of correlation...

    Top speed

    While going fast can be fun I would recommend doing it at the track. There's just too much that could go wrong doing it on the road. For example: Someone could pull out in front of you and you wouldn't have time to react. A deer could run out in front of you Some other animal could run out...

    high idle and limp mode

    I'm not sure if this is possible or not because i've never messed with the crank and TDC sensors but is it possible you plugged the wires into the wrong sensors?

    Limp mode?

    doubt this is the issue but if your car is topping out at a high rpm like that you might want to check the cat (the one under the car not the one climbing on your car) mine would start missing and just not go any faster plus my 0-60 times were pretty slow like 15ish seconds. turned out the cat...

    Fuel Flow Issues

    Re: Fuel Flow/Electrical? Issues I have checked the oil and the hesitation thing was different than a rev limiter, but the problem suddenly went away. Now I can run it all the way up to red line no problems and drive it around the yard and driveway (Its fairly long) and it runs just fine, but...

    Testing out the new switchbacks. And I just noticed that my other Accord photo bombed it.

    Top speed

    I've had my 98 2.3L Auto up to like 90ish, but that's because a semi wanted to be where I was on the interstate. That's the fastest I've had it going, but I'm sure it could go faster.

    Fuel Flow Issues

    I got the idle issues fixed but now I'm not getting enough fuel up to the engine. When I hit about 4000 RPM in neutral the entire car starts shaking and the fuel trims shoot way up trying to get more fuel to the engine. I have already replaced both the FPR and the pump. The only other thing I...

    Weird idle issues

    Sorry for bringing back this old thread, but I figured I would give you guys an update in case anyone has a similar problem. My mechanic found a small piece of metal stuck in the EGR valve that was holding it open and once he cleaned that out the car started running smoothly, but the car still...

    ABS Motor Lock code: 51

    While I wait for my car to get in at the mechanic I would like to fix some of the other issues it has. One of which is the ABS system. Using a paperclip in the OBD port I got it to flash the code 51: ABS Motor Lock. The car had been hit up in the corner by the ABS modulator (i think that's what...

    Car overheating when stopped

    It sucked it down just a little bit but is holding the fluid just fine and i attempted to reflow the main relay with a heatgun. I talked to my mechanic (he actually works for Honda and does his mechanic work on the side) and he said it would be a few weeks before he can get it in.

    Car overheating when stopped

    The plugs didn't help. It died 3 times on my way to church and once on the way back. On the bright side the coolant level is staying where it should be.
