I own a 1986 Honda accord LXI. Just recently the EFI warning light has come on. What could be the cause & how do I fix it? ANY help would be appreciated GREATLY!!!

Take it to autozone to get the code read.EFI = electronic fuel injection, btw. Does your car run different? If not i'd get it checked still

i own a repair shop,and id take it and have it scanned ,it probably has lost fuel pressure that's why your getting the light on it,it has a sensor that tells you if there is a problem with it,good luck,i hope this help,s.

try getting a new gas cap and see if the lite goes out it could be the tank pressure

Take to a qualifed Honda mech to have it checked out

When that happened to me, I forgot to fasten the fuel cap after I filled up with gas. This caused the light to go on. I read my manual and it even states it right in the manual that not replacing the fuel cap or closing it tightly will cause the light to go on. It tells you how to turn it off as well. I don't have my owner's manual handy otherwise I could help you more. The light will shut off manually (under your control) ONLY if the gas cap was the problem. If you try turning it off and it doesn't work, than you will know that the cap was NOT the problem. If that's the case, I would then suggest taking it in to be diagnosed and serviced. Hope this helped a little. Good luck.
