I got a 94 accord and since i bought it i had a slight spiiting and sputtering going on when im at low rpms trying to go. Now if i sit still it will not do it only trying to move. I replaced my sparkplugs so far and this is just getting worse the longer it goes on. Now just recently the car is very sluggish it feels like it has a big loss of power when im trying to get up to speed. Im sorry in advance if i posted this in the wrong spot. thank you.

 

I would clean the EGR ports. In the common DIY thread, there is a link to EGR port cleaning for the 5th generation accord.

 

Check carefully for vacuum leaks; EGR, PCV, brake booster, etc. Leaks can cause problems.


Check spark plug wires by spraying wires generously w/ fine mist of water at night and looking for sparks to jump (spark to ground). Any problems indicate new spark plug wires are needed.

Also if O2 sensor is over 100K miles, suggest replacing. This can occasionally cause drivability problems.

Check engine timing. Align crankshaft pointer to TDC, remove upper timing belt cover and check that alignment mark at LH horizontal position on camshaft sprocket is level w/ backside of timing belt cover. If not, you could have a damaged timing belt (don't drive until fixed).

good luck

 

texashonda could you pls describe where to look for most of these things timing is fine but idk where the rest are i dont see any vacuum leaks but dont know where else to look for everything else.

 

i mean the 02 senser and EGR, PCV, brake booster i check my main air intake and there is a metal piece running from my intake to the motor that looks like it is leaking something on the intake.

 

sorry for posting so many at once keep remembering stuff but recently the car is now almost completly dying when coming to a stop fine at idle but when i drive and come to a stop it almost reaches zero revs back up then does it again a couple times then its fine hope this helps identify the problem thank you for everyones help so far.

 

O2 sensor is on the exhaust manifold under the front of the engine.

EGR valve is on the rear side of engine on pax side.

PCV is stuck in rear center of valve cover and PCV hose runs rearward from PCV in valve cover to intake manifold.

Brake booster vacuum line runs from rear side of intake manifold towards driver's side and connectos to vacuum brake booster.

Download the 94-Honda Accord Shop Manual from Online Manuals post in DIY forum. This has pics and guidance on how to check above items.

good luck

 

Well i checked every thing found nothing wrong this sucks its getting worse.

 

Is the check engine light turning on while driving? Have you checked for error codes (see common diy thread I mentioned in my previous post).

I would inspect the distributor cap and distributor rotor for signs of wear. When were they last replaced?

Did you clean the EGR ports?
