93 Accord - Whining Noise
1993 Accord:
Intermittenly a slight whining noise comes from the engine compartment, this noise lasts for approx 1-2 seconds and only occurs after the accelerator has been depressed, never has happened when accelerating. Did a little reseraching and found a technical service bulletin that suggested this might be the water pump shaft and can be fixed by adding some water pump shaft lubricant to the cooling system. Has anyone had this type of problem? If so, how was it fixed? Thank you all in advance for your wonderful insight. Steve |

If you had said the timing belt was just changed, I'd suggest domething else. The water pump lubricant couldn't hurt.... 'Curly' ================ |

Re: 93 Accord - Whining Noise
I think the power steering pump on my '92 LX makes a little noise on
first start up. I've got 215,000 miles on it, so I'm expecting stuff like that. bob "'Curly Q.

One other thing you should check is the air filter. Make sure the cover of the air filter is secured. If the cover is not secured properly--you can hear a whining noise when you press down on the gas. |
