'90 Accord Charging Light Problems by
Jeff Kolodziej
Honda Gurus:
I have a 1990 Accord LX with about 377K miles. It has been a great car, but
now the Charging system light (the red light with a Battery icon) has come
on (and stays on). I read through the Owner's manual and Hayne's Service
manual. The Owner's/Service manual suggest tightening up the...

'90 Accord clutch noise/replacement by
[email protected]
The clutch in my 1990 Accord (260 thousand km) has always made a
squawking noise(but only sometimes) when engaging the clutch from a
stop. The noise which occurs more frequently in winter( Canadian
Maritimes), is becoming more frequent and is really spoiling the fun
of driving my Honda, which is...

Vlad Ciubotariu
Hi all,
My 90 accord has about 255,000km, it drives great and it's been
maintained well.
A few days ago, my engine light came on while driving < 60 on
a downward slope in town. Now the light comes back consistently at speeds

'90 accord ecu codes 1 & 43 (fixed) by
Vlad Ciubotariu
Hi All,
My mechanic checked the fuel pressure (code 43) and found nothing wrong.
So we went to replace the O2 sensor with OEM and check engine light is now
gone. The car also `seems' to me to have better acceleration and smaller
rpms at high speeds.
My symptoms were a few random losses of power...

'90 Accord post-repair coolant leak by
Pete from Boston
In the past two and a half years I've replaced my '90 Accord's
radiator, water pump, thermostat twice, and just had the cooling fan
motor and temp sensor replaced after the car started getting hot even
while moving fast (without boil-over). Following that last repair, I
had to drive the car 150...

'90 Civic auto seatbelt + dashboard lights problem by
[email protected]
(1) Auto seatbelt has worked on and off lately. Then today, it stopped
working. Everytime I had this problem, the warning light (seatbelt)
was on and the buzzer beeped until I turn off the starter.
What should I have to look up?
Will the repair cost a lot?
(2) When I turn on the headlights, the...

'90 Civic Axle Replacement Problem by
WaterWatcher
Hi everyone. I replaced the axles on my '90 Civic last summer due to torn
boots. The passenger's side replacement was noisy, so I exchanged it for
another. That one had a vibration while accelerating which I put up with
until today. I swapped it under warranty and its replacement is...

'90 Civic Driveability Issue by
WaterWatcher
My '90 Civic LX driveability seems to be degrading. Under light throttle,
it surges and hesitates slightly. It has always done this to some degree
but it seems worse now that it has 102K miles on it. It runs fine under
acceleration and idles good. I've recently replaced the plug wires,...

Bruce
I drove my '90 Civic EX sedan 1.6L (180k miles, 5spd) on a 65 mile trip
last week (averaging 75mph, 3.5-4k rpm, no AC, ambient temp 85) and
about 5 mins after I pulled off the highway, the temperature gauge
slowly climbed to 2/3, up from its normal position at just under 1/2.
Once I parked, I heard...

'90 Civic LX Rear Speaker Install Advice Needed by
WaterWatcher
Hi all. After only 14 years I've decided two stereo speakers aren't enough
in my '90 Civic sedan. I want to install two 6 1/2" speakers in the rear
deck. The metal under this deck has cutouts for what appears to be 6 1/2"
speakers, with three screw holes. Do I just cut the fiberboard from...

'90 Civic: Extremely sluggish low-end acceleration, poor fuel economy by
Bruce
A few more issues from my poor little car for anyone who can shed some
light...
My '90 5-spd Civic Ex has been bogging down at low RPMs since I bought
it last fall. When I accelerate from a dead stop I have to goose it to
about 2500rpm and then pop the clutch a bit to get it to take off as
quick...

Recently, the car will start, but just a few minutes later, after

'90 Prelude ABS question by
Rivergoat
At 144K miles now; and the ABS, although apparently still functional,
turns the charging motor on/off constantly while driving. I am
guessing the system is losing pressure and keeps needing to recharge
itself. But is this something other ABS owners have experienced and
can give any further details?...

'91 Accord Radio Power Question by
Phil
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
provides 12V power all the time. This lead and all radio wiring leads are

caroline_t
I have a '91 accord with 230,000 miles on it. When the car is wet, I have
to hold the key for about 5-10 seconds to get the engine to catch. When
it catches, it runs rough for 5-10 minutes. It has been raining for 5
days and now the car will not "catch" at all. The engine turned a couple

Just last night my dash board lights on my 1991 Honda Accord quit on me. I
thought maybe a fuse went bad. So I am driving when suddenly I see
cherries on my rearview mirror...I got pulled over! The officer pulled me
over because my tail lights were out! I never realized that! So, my

The upper tank on my '91 Civic Si radiator has a split 1" - 2" long
immediately above one of the two brackets that support the air intake
horn - the one closest to the battery. (And, no - I haven't leaned
on the air horn in the past, though that kind of pressure is what
causes the split to...

For the first time ever I had the engine just shut off on me while
warming it up this evening. No sputters, no hesitation, no nothing -
just up and quit as if I had turned it off myself. Battery is
functional as the stereo and headlights were still on. I started it
again and there were no...
