i'm not sure. we've only had the car around 2 months! and of course it was sold as-is with a 1month discount type warranty.. which has long expired lol. my mom has an accord and it has had only small problems (like a taillight bulb going out). I also worked for Honda shortly, so i learned a lot and thought it would be an awesome vehicle to have! which it still is, just a pain lol

i'll check the chilton to be sure about the plugs, mebbe i can get more of a visual on it. i think i understand tho

i'll try the pump idea too when i can.

thanks
