Have replaced TCM, radiator, plugs and wires...ran good for months ..now this...262000 miles
Sounds like your cat. converter is pluged up
Testimonial: "Maybe..had my wife gas it while I held a towel to exhaust pipe...seemed to have good air(hot) coming out...BUT...the idle went down and now seems not to be idling as high? Could this be my problem and what I did was caused something to mess up? "

I had this type of problem on my 93 EX. What is happening is the lockup clutcth in the transmission is engaging and disengaging. When the vehicle is a higher speeds, there is a clutch in the torque converter that locks it up so there is a direct drive from the engine through the transmission (no slippage at all in the converter) to increase efficiency. However, when encountering a grade (uphill), the clutch may unlock (now driving through the fliuid in the torque converter), allowing the engine to speed up and provide more power for climbing the grade; when it reaches the top of the hill, the clutch should lock up again and the rpm will drop. Check the transmission fluid level, if it is low it may affect operation of the clutch. You might also want to consider changing the fluid. There is a drain plug on the bottom of the transmission (no filter to change). You'll only get about 2 of the 6 quarts out of the transmission when you drain it. I recommend you drain it once, refill it, drive it a short distance, then repeat one or two more times so that a majority of the old fluid is replaced. If you think it is acting abnormally (mine would lock up going uphill, then unlock going downhill), there is a cable operated by the thottle cable that attaches to the front of the transmission that provides throttle input info to the transmission. This can be adjusted (I forget which way I had to move mine to correct my problem). If you do mess with it, a small change (1/2 turn) may be all that is necessary.

When you turn the key to start, the engine cranks over? You must check for spark and fuel, if one is missing, the car won't run. Pull a spark plug, with plug wire connected and plug on a metal surface of the engine, have someone turn the key to start, while you watch for spark at the plug. It is easiest to see spark with car out of direct or bright light. If you have spark, attempt to start several times, pull a spark plug and check for evidence of fuel (wet) on plug. Let me know what you find, we can then continue.

my sister car had the same prob, It turns out that it was a loose accelorator bolt
SOURCE: i have 98 honda accord, engine light, rpm goes down
check the speed sensor,if the computer doesn't know the speed it does not know how fast you are going ,so you won;t have peak performance
