    My problems in one thread

    I'd go down the 'sniffer' route like above, you can also get UV dye to put in the coolant that will leave dye traces behind which are revealed when shining a UV light on it. For example, this kit has fluids to cover all aspects of leaks (not just coolant)...

    What condition is your oil in, dipstick and under cap? How much oil is a little puddle thats leaking, are you topping up frequently too?. There could be a leak from the filter which is around that area. What like is the exhaust smoke at startup? Is the car overheating aswell or is temp just...

    Seized near side caliper/piston

    i bought a relatively large tub (500g) of Red Rubber Grease for about a £10 from these guys...it will probably last a lifetime (it also does the slide pins too) http://morrisminorspares.co.uk/shop/product_info.php?cPath=887_867&products_id=1744&osCsid=600b46268a6480d54ba984322cae11f9

    Accord 2.3 Type V Missfire/Judder loss of power

    I don't think the OBD2 port appears until 2001/2002 in the Accord. It seems some have and some don't. Its in the passenger footwell, hidden behind the carpet near the centre console if you do.

    Fuel pump removal and relay switch location

    That's useful to know. It can be re-soldered if you check those vids, so might be worth hanging onto. I bought a soldering iron from Maplin a few months ago, its fixed a few odd things like solar garden lights even the laptop charger so a soldering iron is a worthy tool to have in your...

    Fuel pump removal and relay switch location

    Nice one, you should try and examine the solder on the old one to see if that was the cause.

    Tappet Adjustment

    The engine only runs on 4 intake valves (or 12valves if you include the exhaust) until VTEC then the left hand rocker arm engages bringing in the whole 16valves into operation. The cylinder is on the intake stroke hence the valve is depressed, using the cam pulley you can determine which...
