Kastigir Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Just go to your local Honda dealer. They will have to order it. Costs about 75 bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dkzayne Posted March 24, 2008 Author Share Posted March 24, 2008 no the timing belt looks okay and it is an automatic and if you are talking about the check engine code it flashes six times which is the coolant tempeture sensor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dkzayne Posted March 24, 2008 Author Share Posted March 24, 2008 why this saturday??? and what all do they check for there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Matteu Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 I figured you might be to busy during the week. Hopefully they can figure out what is wrong with your car considering you have replaced everything I would imagine to be the source of this type of problem short of a: new fuel pump, combination switch, and positive battery harness. So I am scratching my head, and have yet to see someone come up with a logical response to your issue. How do your wires look? Do you have the Helms Service Manual for your car? I could poke around your engine bay and dash, but I am not sure I will be of any help since I am really not familiar with this electronic setup (I had a 3G Accord and now a 5G Accord, but never a 4G). So I really know more about OBD-0 and OBD-II, compared to my knowledge of OBD-I. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Matteu Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 a new ignition module Is that the same thing as the ignition coil? Or are you referring to something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kastigir Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Have you verified that you're getting fuel and spark? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkzayne Posted March 26, 2008 Author Share Posted March 26, 2008 yes i am getting spark and i know im getting fuel and for you james the module is inside my distributer and no i havent changed the coil which i do know where it is at Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kastigir Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 yes i am getting spark and i know im getting fuel and for you james the module is inside my distributer and no i havent changed the coil which i do know where it is at How do you know you're getting fuel? An engine needs 3 things to run. Fuel, ignition, and compression. If you're positive you've got the first 2, then the 3rd is your problem. I would recheck.

dkzayne Posted March 26, 2008 Author Share Posted March 26, 2008 well i know i have compression because when the car spins over you can hear a constant sound and i know what it would sound like if one of the pistons have low compression due to a friend of mines old car so i know i have constant compression Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
