nfaulisi Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 I bought a 1992 Accord LX about a month ago and it has run great until last night. Now it will start up and run fine but after I drive a couple miles it just completley cuts out and stalls. I don't know what would be causing this but if anyone has any idea please help me out. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatch92 Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 fuel pump is what it sounds like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotch_taped Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 this probably ain't it but when MY '92 did that it was the starter cap and another time it was a fuse. EDIT: o2 censor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nfaulisi Posted July 21, 2007 Author Share Posted July 21, 2007 Thanks for all the suggestions, I too thought that is was perhaps the fuel pump or the o2 sensor. I've already checked over the fuses and they're all good. I'll look into and let you know if I find out what it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crxtacy Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 I agree with cranny.Igniter or the coil is going bad too . How would an o2 sensor cause it to die ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tygr20 Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 I agree with cranny.Igniter or the coil is going bad too . How would an o2 sensor cause it to die ? I can answer that- the catalytic is clogged on my 97 Civic. When the exhaust gets backed up in the cat, the o2 is reading an incorrect mixture, and the car starts to sputter, which if I'm not mistaken is contributed to by the ECU cutting fuel to make the o2 sensor read a leaner mixture. Check the cat for clogs if the o2 replacement doesn't help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95delsol Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 u can check the cat easily by doing a vacuum test. check for vacuum at idle should be between 18-21in then raise the rpms to 2000 the vacuum should get better or go up about 1in. if it drops then your cat is plugged Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
