Car stalling problems
This morning while driving to school, I noticed that my tachometer was
going haywire. (As in fluntuating from 1 and quickly up to 4 and back down to 1). I was going only 35mph at the time in D3. 30 seconds later the car completely turns itself off and all of the battery/engine/maintenance check buttons lit up. However after I pulled over and took the key out, I was able to get it started again as if nothing happened. I recently got the car in November from my sister, and I’ve only had this happen to me twice. I asked my sister, but she never had a problem like that happen. I just had the car in for a check up and there weren’t any reported problems. I’ve been reading similar problems that other people have had and most believe it could be a possible problem with the fuel pump or ignition, or even the battery. Any help is really appreciated. 1991 Honda Accord -- Posted at author's request, using http://www.AutoBoardz.com interface Articles individually verified to usenet standards.

Re: Car stalling problems
Honda's famed Main Relay causes those problems because of bad solder
connections. Search on Honda Main relay and you should get lots of information.

MR is more a problem upon starting,once the engine is running,it's not a problem. This guy had his motor die while driving. It certainly would be smart to resolder the relay anyways and eliminate it as a problem in the future.(and it doesn't cost much,a new relay is at least $50) -- Jim Yanik jyanik at kua.net > > > "chibi" <none@000.com> wrote in message > news:996705_03f4b27b0866a02735d3d75f9c4fc99e@autob oardz.com... >> This morning while driving to school, I noticed that my tachometer >> was going haywire.
