gasoline by
Guy[_2_]
Just wondering ... I recall in the older cars they used to say to use
87 octane but once in a while use 91 octance on occasion. Is this
still valid or is going with a lifetime of 87 octane no different say
in 2003 or newer Hondas (say Toyotas too) ?

Buying an older Odyssey by
tgeliot
I'm in the market for a car, and the 98 and earlier Odysseys seem like just
what I want in terms of size and functionality. Too bad 97 and earlier had
lawnmower engines. But in the 98 they put the VTEC, from the Accord, I
believe. But there are no 98s to be had. Could I get an older (95-97)
and...

Knock sensor on Honda Accord 2005 and Honda Odyssey 2002 by
[email protected]
Do I really need to replace knock sensors on my cars?? It turns out
that some rats in my yard have eaten through the wiring to the knock
sensors causing the check engine light to go on. Interestingly the
lights went on in both the cars within a day of each other -the 2005
Accord only has 50,000...

'94 Accord computer fault codes by
Ether Jones
New to this group. Didn't see a FAQ.
Can someone tell me, or point me to a website that explains, how to
retrieve computer fault codes from a 94 Accord ?
Hopefully I don't have to go running to the dealer every time I want to
check them...
Thanks,

'91 Accord Radio Power Question by

The radio in our '91 Accord would quit working frequently, the display
fading in and out, so I decided to replace the unit with a Panasonic CD
player. No problem, until I tried to locate the battery power lead that

99 Civic Check Engine Light by
disallow
Hi there,
Got my sister's car with the CEL on, she doesn't
maintain it that well... All of the ignition
stuff looked wore out, so I replaced Cap, rotor,
Wires, and plugs. However, the light came back
on.
What is the procedure to check for the ECU
trouble code if I don't have a scanning tool?
