1991 Accord EX Sedan Idle engine
Hi
I have a 91 Accord EX Sedan, 148500 miles. Whenever the car engine is idle, I can see the dash vibrating and making noise. I had this problem in March and went to the dealer and he said its the engine mount thats needs to be replaced and so I got it replaced for $157 at the dealer. Now again the same problem appears. I don't know what the thing could be. Also when do I need to change water pump ? TIA -- Buddy. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- |

Come on group, please help.
My engine when idle makes the whole car vibrate. Just trying to understand what could be the reason. Thanks in advance Buddy.

Re: 1991 Accord EX Sedan Idle engine
See if you can find a mechanic who KNOWS how to drill out the EGR plugs
and clean the passages. He can then tap the drilled places and put in bolts. Might take care of your roughness. bob USC wrote: > > Come on group, please help. > My engine when idle makes the whole car vibrate. > Just trying to understand what could be the reason. > Thanks in advance > > Buddy. > "Trojan" <klutulu@softhome.net> wrote in message > news:bjqamg$749$1@usc.edu... > > Hi > > I have a 91 Accord EX Sedan, 148500 miles. > > Whenever the car engine is idle, I can see the dash vibrating and making > > noise.

Re: 1991 Accord EX Sedan Idle engine
There are a couple of mounts that regularly cause that. One of them is the
front dog-bone style mount... which sounds like the one you are talking about (because the mount costs about 50 bucks, and the dealer would have charged labor). The other mount is a computer controlled hydraulic mount that goes bad sometimes. It is supposed to get soft at idle, and them firm up above idle.
