Hey all,

I've been having fuel issues for quite some time but haven't quite pinpointed where the problem(s) lie. Used to be that the CEL would come once in a great while and I'd simply reset the ECU. However, as of late, the CEL would come on more frequently even just after a reset.

Furthermore, upon (semi-warm) startup, I'm starting to get an idle that won't hold, falls, then the car dies. I say semi-warm because this usually happens after a quick drive (5 or so mimutes). I'll shut off engine, go into a store, and when I restart...

So anyway, I'm thinking of taking the car to a reputable tuner shop to finally iron out some theoretical (aren't they all?!) issues. But are there any benefits to taking the car to Honda/Acura for diagnostics before taking it someplace else?

BTW, this shop has an in-house dyno that, to me at least, would indicate that they should have proper scan/diagnostic equipment. True?

Thanks,
Adub

 

what kind of code are you getting before you reset the ecu?
