Honda Car Forum

Hello,
I've posted regarding this problem a while back and few
responded about a TSB on clogged EGRs. The car
seems to surge a bit when accelerating from idle. It NEVER
stalls, just accelerates roughly.

When I called Honda and gave them my VIN, they said
that my inline 4 (or v4) engine didn't have a TSB on the EGR, but
the inline 6s do.

I'm experiencing the same symptoms though.

Any advice on how to deal with this?

I've had the throttle plate cleaned also and use CITGO/chevron
gas. Air filter was changed 1.5 years ago.
Mileage is 36,000 and its a 2001 accord lx - 5 years old.

THANKS

I am not a certified mechanic but will provide my opinion. It's my guess that
you have one or more clogged injectors. In some cases, adding a can of
injector cleaner to the gasoline will solve the problem. If one of more
injectors are damaged--you will have to have them replaced. If the can of
injector cleaner does not solve your problem, ask your mechanic to hook up
your engine up to a computerized engine tester. The mechanic should be
able to figure out the source of the problem.
