Does a 1999 acura 3.2 tl have a timing belt or chain?
The 3.2 litre V6 engine in a 1999 Acura TL has a timing BELT
Where is the heater blower in a 1996 Acura TL 25?
It's behind the glove box according to my Chilton manual. I'm not sure if the dash has to be removed, but the condenser does if you have AC. So, the AC has to be discharged first. The dealer estimates 4 hours labor to replace the blower motor.

6. Remove the fuse box cover on the left side of dash.
7. Remove the gold machine bolt from under the fuse lid that holds the lower dash panel in place.
8. Remove the lower panel by pulling towards you. Be careful when pulling so it doesn't break, then release the connector at the upper left side of panel.
9. Remove the screw holding the console side trim panel on that you just uncovered by removing the lower dash trim.
10. Remove the side trim panels now by pulling them outward to release the clips then pull straight back to release the front clips.
11. You can now reach the seat heater switches to push them up and out of the console panel unplug each switch after you pull them through their holes.
12. Now lift the little panel out of the console under the ashtray.
13. To remove the ashtray assembly remove the trim ring around the shifter by prying up then remove the 2 gold bolts that were hidden by the trim under the ashtray.
14. Remove the black screws under the radio panel.
15. Lift the ashtray/shifter panel out and unplug the connector.

Does a Yamaha fzr 600 take 93 octane gas premium or just regular 87 which is recommended?
Listen regular premium and mid grade are all different octane ratings octane refers to the volatility of the fuel to combustion. Ok the simple version low octane burns easier premium is harder to burn. The Fzr calls for regular which is 87 octane! that's regular now if you put premium which is harder to burn then your going backwards. Using premium since its harder to burn leave carbon deposits which are not good at all for the motor leading to the compression rising after time makeing the tolerances closer making the motor a whole lot more likely to fail. I build hi performance motors and attended mmi (motorcycle mechanics institute) Plus the crappy additives in premium will do more harm then good the moral to the story just follow the bikes instructions and you will have a good runing bike for years.
This is incorrect regarding Octane rating. Gasoline is a mixture of several petroleum distillates of which octane is one. The higher the octane the slower the mixture "burns". Engines are designed to take into account the speed at which the air-fuel mizture burns. The technical keyword here is "flame front velocity". Another keyword is pre-detonation.
The engine timing is such that the correct octane rating assures that fuel is burned at an optimal rate during the power stroke. Too low a octane rating results in the familiar "pinging" heard in automobile engines which means the fuel burned faster than the optimal speed for the power stroke.
This is why you would retard the ignition if you are burning too low an octane rated fuel.
Most likely no damage would occur from being slighlty off from the suggested octane rating. However using too low an octane fuel over a long period of time could lead to excessive wear to engine internals.
But as suggested the safe route is use fuel with the octane rating suggested by the manual.
The first guy was right second one wrong. Lower octane rating means more volatile more eager to burn, were higher octane harder to burn.
----------------------------------------------------------------
No, the second guy is right, the first is dead wrong - as is the third!
The confusion surrounding octane is unbelievable. "Octane" is a measure of the fuel's reaction kinetics (higher octane, slower burn). Volatility plays NO ROLE in octane rating whatsoever. Gasoline is made up of hundred of compounds centered around chains that are 8 (octane) carbons long. If these chains are straight (n-Octane) the molecule reacts very quickly and lead to detonation in the cylinders. Pure n-Octance has an octane rating of about 37. If the chains are branched (iso), they react slower because some of the bonds are hidden and the flame front is subsonic. Detonation occurs when the flame front is supersonic, resulting in shock waves much like those experienced on airplane during sonic booms.
Burning an unnecessarily high octane will often result in less power and isn't BETTER for your motorcycle. Some higher octane gasoline containa better detergent package but in general most high octane gasolines are higher because ethanol is added in greater concentration. Ethanol has a very high octane rating (burns very slowly) and so adding a more of it into the fuel will raise the effective octane of that mixture.
Cars can adapt to slower buring fuels because they "sense" when a fuel isn't knocking (detonating) with a knock sensor and constantly "test" the fuel and advance the timing a bit to take give the flame front time to develop.
These types of sophisticated ignition systems don't exist on most bikes.
So the answer is that you burn the lowest octane that DOESN'T detonate. If your bike runs well on 87 octane, that's what you use. Using a 92 octane will only rob you of power and result in lower efficiency.

Replacing ignition coil on 2000 acura tl?
Disconnect the negative battery cable.
Remove the wiring harness from the coil.
Remove the ignition coil wire.
Remove the ignition coil by removing the mounting bolts.
Remove the ignition coil.
Install is the reverse of the removal procedure.
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) idle memory must be reset after reconnecting the battery. Start the engine and hold it at 3000 rpm until the cooling fan comes on. Then allow the engine to idle for about five minutes with all accessories OFF and with the transmission in Park or Neutral.

All the turn signals don't work in your 2001 Acura TL Please help?
The first thing you should do is to replace your turn signal flasher.This is the weak ling in the system that acts like a fuse. Obtain one from your Acura dealer and have the parts person show you where it is located.I suspect this is your problem. Mark
