accord auto shift button
 
Hi. I have a '94 accord ex & the button on the shifter is getting
really hard to push in. Almost to the point where I need 2 hands.
Any idea how to fix that?

Also, the same car revs up & down when idling in cold weather. Other
than that I luv it.

thanks

Try a real quick shot of spray lube/cleaner like BreakFree. Use the spray
extension tube to get it right into the space around the button-- and don't
over spray and use too much. Give it a few minutes to work

Yep, silicone spray in the button and fill up your coolant reservoir to
the MAX mark. You've got AIR in the system and it's confusing the computer.

Must've been gummed up. I haven't tried the coolant fill up trick for
he revving thing yet but will on the weekend.
