Hi, I just went through my papers and found a recall from Honda that mentionned my Exhaust manifold could be cracked and would be garanteed under their extended warranty. How would I know if the manifold is cracked? Is there a loud noise? Does the consumption go up? I've noticed that my...

The radio in our '91 Accord would quit working frequently, the display fading in and out, so I decided to replace the unit with a Panasonic CD player. No problem, until I tried to locate the battery power lead that provides 12V power all the time. This lead and all radio wiring leads are clearly...

New to this group. Didn't see a FAQ. Can someone tell me, or point me to a website that explains, how to retrieve computer fault codes from a 94 Accord ? Hopefully I don't have to go running to the dealer every time I want to check them... Thanks,
