Hello All,

I'm new to the forum.
Thank you in advance for all future and past post.

I own a 1995 Honda Accord EX 4dr Automatic 2.2 4cyl Vtec (Federal Emissions).

I recently replaced the intermediate pipe purchased from
overnightautoparts - made by Bosal Part # 284-021 (H5000-51056).
I had a crack in it for about 2 month prior to replacement.

Now my car vibrates a lot when I am stopped and in gear.
I noticed that my RPM is just barely over 500 rpms.
I'm pretty sure that is used to hover near 1000 rpm,
before replacement
Could the the Bosal aftermarket intermediate pipe
be that different from OEM to cause
the timing/idle speed to lower??


My car also makes a weird sound when i'm decreasing speed on a highway.
I'm guessing that is just a feature of the aftermarket part.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
DK
