Hello Corey Wilkey,

I got one thing that your OXYGEN SENSORS always
get blamed for... (sorry).

As a matter of FACT...
your whole list is where the money gets spent
first... (not so cheap: save all those good parts).

Sadly (I believe) all your troubles will resolve
to a BLOCKED EXHAUST...
started on occasion but has popped and now
might run... but definitely stops (muffler/resonator).

or...

Onset was pretty quick... now really does not
even threaten to run anymore (catalytic convertor)

If you don't mind a filthy job two people & good
shop hoist... it is not a horrible job... but if
you are taking to an Exhaust shop... Know
your material PRICES ( and STATE laws )
BEFORE
you go...!!

The muffler shop can TEST & CONFIRM...

Muffler & resonator Prices
1998 HONDA ACCORD 3 0L V6 Muffler Resonator RockAuto

Catalytic Convertor Prices (various: any State)

Specific detail CATALYTIC Conv. (C.A.R.B. Compliant)

Hope this helps

SOURCE: 1992 Honda Accord LX won't start - ignition problems

I would remove the distributor cap and crank the engine over . If the rotor does not turn , then you need to replace the timing belt. The timing belt needs to be replaced every 60 K. If the rotor turns then make sure you have spark to a spark plug. Run a compression test on each cylinder. The basics to run are compression, spark, fuel and timing.

It may be the O2 sensor. I know it's not the fuel filter, spark plugs, spark plug wires, Vehicle Speed Sensor, Dis. cap, or TCM.

Are you sure you have correct timing? its definetly a fule problem, if timing is good then turn your key to the on position and try to listin for the fule pump to prime. While the key is in on position go to fuel rail, there is a valve on fule rail called sharader valve. Get a small screw driver and press valve in to check if car has fule pressure. if pressure is present then it is incorrect timing or possible bad cam sensor.

SOURCE: 1996 Honda Accord Rough Idle Even After tune up

Perform a valve clearance inspection and adjust if necessary. Tight or sticking valves will cause a misfire or rough running concern. Note: Perform valve adjustment when the engine is stone cold. 4cyl: INT 0.26mm EXH: 0.30mm (V6 engine are hydraulic and no adjust necessary.) Also check for a sticking or stuck open EGR valve. For diagnostic purposes only: Remove the EGR valve. Place a business card over the EGR passage and bolt the EGR valve back on. This plugs the EGR ports and if the misfire goes away the EGR valve is partially stuck open and is defective.
Check for low fuel pressure. Check for low compression. Check cam timing. Check for a weak ignition coil. Also don't over look the possibility of worn or broken engine mounts which cause excessive engine movement and engine vibration. -hope this helps

1993 accord has dead cylinder

I have seen many of those years Accords with a burnt intake valve, from too much EGR gas entering only one cylinder, overheating and eventually burning and breaking that valve. This causes the valve to not be able to seal the combustion chamber, resulting in no compression and no power from that cylinder. You will have to remove the head and change out the broken valve. When done replacing the valve, clean out the EGR ports in the intake or the valve will be damaged once soon. Those blocked EGR passages are what cause the burnt valve problem in the first place.

Check the vacuum hose that goes to the fuel pressure regulator. If the diaphragm

My 1990 Honda Accord had a leak into the spark plug area, and also the tube between the pcv and recycled air intake was collapsed shut. I replaced the head gasket and tube. now i'm getting blow by (oil...

The pvc valve will always let some oil out into the intake to burn. That's normal. Now for the misfire at 2000 rpms, I believe you will have to clean out the EGR passages on your intake system. Basically, three of the four individual EGR passages are blocked up and when the EGR opens, it floods only one cylinder with exhaust gas, causing an extremely lean condition and misfire. It's not an easy task to do on that year Accord, but I think it's what's causing the misfire at high rpms, when the EGR valve opens.

hi, yes, it sounds like you have clogged EGR tubes in the intake. You haven't removed the EGR valve altogether I hope... but the exhaust gas recirculation transfer tubes on these honda 2.2 liter and 2.3 liter engines get clogged commonly. If you look into the engine at the intake manifold runners, there will tiny little round plugs about half way down before the engine. These are casting block off plugs when the intake was manufactured, but they block off the EGR passages. You may want to have a professional shop perform this repair, but you can drill into the plugs and remove with a small slide hammer, then clean out with bottle(small wire round) brushes, or brake clean chemical. You will need to go to a honda dealer and purchase EGR passage steel plugs(maybe 10-20) and when it is all clean, re-install the steel plugs with hammer and punch. should fix that problem! Hope I could help.
