Engine dies when idling

[jick.cejoco]

Will do sir..but is there any way to check the ignition coil on my own?

Ignition Coil Test (The Short Version) - YouTube

Don't forget also to test also the continuity of carbon rotor contact of distributor cap...Loose contact will cause weak high voltage transferred to spark plug and also cause overheating of your ignition coil. Resistance should between 0 ohm to 300 ohms. Test point would be the button contact and high voltage post of distributor cap..

Test the spark intensity with a spark tester similar to this:

If it can jump this gap chances are you have enough voltage to run the car efficiently

Just thought i'd give some closure to this thread....

So i finally called in a mechanic last week to check the car. Surprise surprise, it ran without issues. He actually commented na maganda pa nga raw yung takbo :0

Ang sabi ng mekaniko, baka me bara lang daw somewhere sa fuel/carb, and to just let it run idle every day for 30min or so, para matanggal yung bara. He also said not so load up on unleaded fuel, nakakabara daw?

Anyways, i'll observe for a week, then i-test drive ako around the block.

thanks for the replies...

Yung contact point OK naman daw; sparkplugs kakapalit lang a few weeks ago(pero pansin ko parang ang dumi na). fuel filter OK pa naman daw.
i've also tried to clean it with a carb cleaner pero ganun pa din


Will try to replace the FF over the weekend first bago patignan yung carb -- it's never been cleaned since i started driving it, but as much as possible ayaw ko nang pagalawin at baka me iba pang tamaan.

Pwede kayang fuel pump ang me tama?

Carb cleaning would be good. if you havent had it serviced since you got it, it's well worth the effort. just try spraying carb cleaner on the moving parts to loosen the grease and dirt that could be restricting movement of the throttle cable and valve.

help mga master binasa ko na rin lahat ng mga msgs..

pina top overhaul ko po Honda Accord ko . kasi nagbabawas po tubig at umiinit pag long drive na nasa 3/4 temp
Cyclinder Head Gasket > Valve Seal > Change oil > Oil Filter
CLEAN THROTTLE

ok na sya sa temp.
Ang problem ko po ngyon pag pinaandar ko 1st gear then go pupugak pugak po ang tunok nya at kumakadyot kadyot 2ng gear ganun din po 3rd gear hirap na sya humatak need mo talaga tapakan yung accelerator...
then pansin ko po lumakas sa kunsumo..

pahabol po mga bossing....yung isang high tension wire ko po my bitak pala sya...my bearing po ba yun kaya sa parang sinisinok or palyado?

palitan mo high tension cable, clean/change spark plugs. observebkung mag ok.
