    Honda civic mechanical problems
    Have a 1992 honda civic 4dr dx. I have replaced the following: plugs, wires, distributor, fuel pump, fuel filter, 02 sensor, map sensor, throttle position sensor, ECM, main relay, head gasket, timing belt, and water pump. The car will start and Idle perfectly with no miss. Sometimes it will run awesome for days and then it will just shut down. Hard to start and when it does it will Idle and as soon as you touch the throttle or put it in gear, it will stall and then real hard to restart. And its not blowing any codes at all. When it does run for those few days, it will begin by cutting out a few times and end up stalling and not restarting for some time.

    You need to install a genuine Honda distributor. Over 50% of new aftermarket distributors for Hondas haven't worked at AMHD.

    I have a 2003 Honda Accord 2.4. My car was recently serviced and the spark plugs were replaced and the battery was replaced. I started having problem with the car not starting on cool or cold days. I then returned to my mechanic and got the new battery replaced again. I'm still having the same issue when it's cool or cold. When it doesn't start I wait a little bit and it eventually starts with a little gas. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    Sonnic1, check/replace the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor. It has two wires going to it, while the ECT Switch has one wire going to it. People often get these confused. Simply unscrew the old sensor and screw in the new one.

94 honda civic problems [ 1 Answers ]

I have a 94 honda civic . The power locks do not work and the sun roof will close by it self. If I open the sun roof it will not stay open it will close by itself also does this have any to do with the power locks not working. Thanks in advance.
