Have you recently changed your engine coolant? Have you checked your engine coolant? If you just changed the coolant you probably have an air lock in the system and it needs bleed out. To do this i would need to know more info about the vehicle. Another possibility you could have a coolant leak, IE the water pump, radiator hose, heater hose leak. with low coolant the radiator can't do its job and cool the engine. You could also have a broken water pump impeller. No impeller no engine coolant flow threw the engine and heater core.

grantgga2: I don't think this is one you are going to want to try to change out.
It entails having to remove the left axle and part of the exhaust pipe to gain access to the starter. At that point, you have one bolt which goes in at the bottom from the starter side and bolts to the engine. The other bolt passes through the trans axle housing and bolts into the starter, pulling it up to the engine.

SOURCE: How to program the keyless entry for my 1996 Acura TL.

Hi, Stacie,

here's the instructions for a 97 TL - I hope they're the same.

Note:
Entering the programming mode cancels all learned keyless remotes, so
none of the previously programmed remotes will work. You must reprogram
all of the keyless remotes once you are in the programming mode.
You must complete each step within 4 seconds of the previous step to keep
the system from exiting the programming mode. You must program remotes
within 10 seconds of each other

1. Turn ignition switch to ON (II)
2. Within 4 seconds press the LOCK or UNOCK button on one of the remotes.
(An unprogrammed remote can be used for this step.)

3. Within 4 seconds turn ignition switch to LOCK (0) position
4. Within 4 seconds turn the ignition switch to ON (II)
5. Repeat steps 2, 3 and 4 two more times using the same keyless remote
used in step 2

6. Within 4 seconds press the LOCK or UNLOCK button on the same remote.
Make sure the power door locks cycle to confirm you are in programming
mode.

7. Within 10 seconds press the LOCK or UNLOCK button on same remote.

8. Within 10 seconds press the LOCK or UNLOCK button on all other
remotes you want to program. Make sure door locks cycle after you push
each remote button to confirm system has accepted the remote.

9. Turn the igniton switch to LOCK (0) to exit programming mode.
10. Test remote(s)

Hope this helps :)

SOURCE: had my acura tl overheat brought the vehicle into

Keep an eye on your temp gauge, check your radiator fluid daily for a week (or until you're comfortable that the mechanics fixed the issue), and pay attention to odd smells (radiator fluid). A bad seal on the radiator cap would allow fluids to leak out, so hopefully you're all set now.

What is the firing order for the 1986 Acura 2.5 TL

I am assuming you mean 1996 as they did not make a TL in 1986. So if it is a 1996 the firing order is 1-4-2-5-3-6

My 1996 acura tl overheats and cools down when i give it gas?

first check the radiator, fan clutch, water pump, and thermostat for proper operation.  this condition is also sometimes caused by an exhaust leak near the manifold, letting hot air into the intake.
