coolant leak 1990 accord
I had the problem diagnosed and solved. It was the thermostat housing,
deposits around there prevented it from sealing properly. Cost me 0.7
hours labour.
Thanks to all who replied!

'90 accord ecu code 43
Thanks Jim,
I realize code 1 is the oxygen sensor and some rule of thumb says it
appears together with code 43.

thanks...
