My 98 Ex AT accord just usually dies within 1-2 mins after starting up especially in cold weather in the moring. Idling is ok but when i put the gear D and a gas a little bit then let off the gas, something the car dies..

Also, the rpm drpos till almost 0 and go up to normal 700-800k when i start the car in some normal temperature.

What's wrong with my car? the car has 66k now and has been changed spark plugs a month ago.

It might casue due to the bad fuel filter?

any ideas?

Thanks

 

spark plug timing? possibly the whatchamacallit.... you know.. the doo-hickey...
where the spark plug diodes are... they could be too far apart.....

 

well, i dont understand what he saying btw, the spark plug were gapped alright by a manual

 

Hi,

I am pretty sure that the fule filter is ment to be a lifetime filter, so i doubt that is the problem... is your check engine light on? might be a O2 sensor. did you change wires when you changed plugs, i doubt that would be the problem... just trying to rule some things out.. Also i would try some fule injector cleaner.. might help..

Hope i helped some
Better Bob
PS sorry bout tha spellin, n' stuff

 

lifetime fuel filter? i have never heard of such thing, i was thinking about the fuel pump...

 

well, I didn't change the wires for spark plug? does it required to change it for 60k?
Also, the engine light is not on...well i put new cat w/ o2 sensor for some reason...too lowered my car..well now i'm back to stock setup..

I pretty much doubt something related with a fuel filter or fuel pump.....

any ideas?

 

oh well, i already tried the injector cleaner.....too

 

nm, it aint the fuel pump, im trippin'

 

flush the tranny, i guess?

 

jammed egr valve?
