Had a trip to skeggy today, car ran perfectly, so think it's fixed itself. Wierdly it drives quicker with the AC on :ph34r:

Cheers Peter, I honestly don't know where the fluid is going either :(. I've had a look and cant see a leak, nothing left on the driveway either Was a bit funny driving it this morning, seems to hold on the gears for a whlie before changing and the torque converter wasn't locking up on the...

Just had a quick look, coolant is green / clear. Loks very clean, no oil or any fluids

Hey guys, Having some odd issues with the slush box on my Honda, I've tried searching but cant find much. First problem is when I've driven the car, stick it into neutral and it still creeps foward like it would in drive. I've managed to crash into the garage door a couple of times because of...

Mine was sluggish when I first got it, I changed a few things and it wasn't until I changed the leads, rotor arm and dizzy cap did it make a difference. It ran very smooth, no misfiring, was just down on power. It's still sluggish from a stand still but pulls just like my old 2.2 Astra Coupe...

Cheers guys, I'll just clean the plate - I was just a little unsure how these Accord's react to this modification. My last car (Astra 2.2) never had any issues once it was blanked in the 8 years of ownership. At MOT time the emissions were so low they didn't register on their machines and they...

f20b6 - 1999 2 litre sohc vtec petrol

I've seen the ATR boys have done it, just wondering if it can be done on a f20b6

Cheers guys :) Gave the car an oil change last week and have done about 200 miles since, no metal shavings and is still clean - I think the oil filter may have failed

Back when I owned an Astra the egr valve could be blanked off with a small plate (provided by Vauxhall) and cheated by connecting a small circuit board in place, which was provided by another vauxhall enthusiast. Some cheap skates just used a blanking plate and left the egr valve connected and...

I daren't check mine :ph34r:

Cheers Steve, that doesn't sound too good, fingers crossed it'll be ok after another oil change

Hia guys - keep finding silver metal shavings on dipstick. I changed the oil and filter 1k miles ago, it's already very black too. I'm trying to find reasons as to why as I've never had this problem on a car before. The car since new belonged to the crypt keeper, he put 103k sedate miles on it...

Had a good run to Skeggy and back to Lincoln this morning and achieved 43mpg with two passengers, me and a porky dog. Thanks for the help folks, very pleased with that :)

Incorrect, once the torque converter locks it is 2.5k @ 70mph

28mpg from 90% city, 10% motorway - thats certainly better

I used copy parts from carparts4less as my Accord was originally bought as a cheap replacement but now wish I went oem - since the stuff I took off the car was there since new so had lasted almost 17 years, all be it with reduced power, but it still ran smoothly. In all honesty I think any...

Replaced the dizzy cap, rotor arm and leads - no idea if it's helped the fuel issue but now it doesn't half shift for a big car :D

Cheers Exec, greatly appreciated - I've ordered a new dizzy cap, rotor arm and leads :)

Just thought I would update MPG has gone down again, last fill up was 22mpg. No difference in the way I drive, always to work and back, which are mixed roads. No 'foot to the floor' action, just old man style. Had a look at the dizzy cap and rotor arm, both look worn. The leads also have a...
