Honda Car Forum

its a 99 Honda Accord LX with a 4 cylinder F23 Vtec engine and 121,000 miles in it. While moving it abruptly shuts off and sometimes back on. Thinking it was a fuel problem i changed the fuel cap and the fuel filter and pump. I contacted my local Honda dealer to find out if any recalls where done on my vehicle. All the recalls that existed have already been done according to the dealer (including the ignition switch). The scanner is not giving any codes. Any suggestions will help. Thanks!

I had an old 95 Integra that did the same thing as well. Check to see if your engine is properly grounded. The ground wire for the engine in my old integra (Most likely simlar to the Accord) was located between the top of the motor, to the chassis of the car, near the front bumper.

fuel pump relay? or perhaps a bad iac motor?

it could be numerous of things...such as they stated the grounding wire...fuel relay...or just your ignition system (cap and rotor, spark plugs and wires, or maybe the whole distrubitor....maybe even your fuel injectors being dirty...

mine has the same problem,
the mechanic said he replaced the o2 sensor.
then thats it.
