That is the Fast Idle action required for smooth running while the engine is warming up. On the carbureted (DX) model, a fast idle cam props open the throttle when the engine is cold, raising the idle. The cam is controlled by the thermostatic spring which also controls choke position, the spring is heated by an electric heating element when the car is started and gradually reduces choke and idle. Additionally, at several temperature thresholds, thermally controlled valves apply vacuum to diaphragm-type actuators to reduce idle speed and choke more quickly than the thermostatic spring alone. On the fuel-injected (LX, LX-i) models, fast idle is controlled by the fast idle valve which shunts air around the throttle, giving the same effect as opening the throttle. The fast idle valve is a wax-type valve similar to the cooling system thermostat and is arranged to provide maximum air when cold and none when fully warmed up (is warmed by passages through which engine coolant flows). By way of the engine's other various sensors the computer (ECU) is informed of the increased airflow and adds more fuel via the injectors to maintain correct fuel-air ratio during fast idle. Drew
How do u know if a start went off on a 1992 Honda accord.
crank no start hot weather1991 Honda accord no start hot . but will start for a second with starting fluid . not getting fuel
'90 Honda Accord will start but shut off. What could this problem be?
immoblizer
There are a few reasons a 1997 Honda Accord may not start. It is possible that the battery is dead or that it is out of gas. Another possibility is that the starter is worn out.
1995
No battery.
Yes.
because you touch yourself at night.
YES!
A block heater for a Honda Accord helps to quickly raise the temperature of the car to the proper heat level. This allows for a quicker engine start-ups.
Maybe a weak fuel pump?
