2001 Acura Integra - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

On this website you find fuse box diagram and description for Acura TL (2001) http://www.carknowledge.info/acura-tl-2001-wiring-diagrams-fuse-panel

are you certain you got all the timing marks lined up properly? If not then you've bent the valves again. These things have close tollerances. Get a compression tester and check all cylinders have good compression. If so then line up all your timing marks and check to see if the rotor button is pointing at the right spot to fire cylinder 1. Did you seperate the plug leads from the dizzy? If so check they're in the right order.

Parts stores can usually print one.

Usually removing the positive cable from battery for about 5 minutes will reset check engine light.

sounds like your ignition timing is mal-adjusted. The timing is off. Go buy a Haynes repair manual and look in the section on how to re-time your motor. Has to do with re-adjusting the distributor's position in relation to the camshafts (you have 2). You may also need to change the timing belts. The vibration is due to the rubber in the motor mounts wearing out. I change mine periodically with Urethane motor mounts.

Raise the vehicle up & support on jack standsRemove the injector fusesTurn motor over with the key & starter, as you turnthe steering wheel only a little back & forthWhen you go to the run with the fuse in,just start itquick & shut it off as fast as you can about 6 timesthen your done & check fluid levelYou car uses special honda steering fluid

Hello...the first thing that comes to my mind is the timing belt..Without that...she won't run with all the electrical in the world..I just hope that there wasn't any valve damage....Start there....Let me know...I hope this was helpful....PEACE...

Acura has an online Radio Code finder: https://radio-navicode.acura.com/

MAIN BEARING TORQUE IS 56 FT LBS.

usually it will tell you how to turn off the code in your owners manual code means that the security theft is armed

You need to get the serial number off the sticker attached to the radio. It will require pulling apart your dash. Call an Acura dealership with that serial number and they should be able to provide you the code. Or you can take it directly to the dealer but you will be charged labor.

TRY 21365 OR 35235

OPEN DISTRIBUTOR CAP, LET A FRIEND START THE CAR, IF ROTOR IS NOT TURNING , YOU TIMING BELT IS GONE.

SPARK PLUG GAP IS 0.039 - 0.043 FOR THE 1.8 GSR GAP IS 0.051

get OEM O2 sensor and not a universal, then there is no need to cut wires just clip it on. you can go right to Honda and the will sell you one

Hi:
The only way to get a radio code is to drive your car to the dealer, and have the VIN number handy. The service department can look up your radio code. This keeps theives from reselling stolen radios.

this is quite a common problem on some of the older rovers (especially the metro). gunk n deposits over time slowly block up the heater matrix and reduce the flow of water through it this will reduce the heat coming out. however there maybe another reason

a few things to check first, start the car and let it idle. once its running for a while, make sure the temperature on the engine gets to its normal place then try the heaters see if there is any change in there heating. if there is no heat at all at this point its possible either the heater matrix behind the dashboard has blocked up or the regulator valve controlling the flow of warm water into the heaters has broken.

check the drivers and passengers footwells if there wet to the touch, (not slightly damp) its a strong possibility that the heater matrix has broken or is leaking and thus not warming up like normal (this will need to be fixed ASAP as it will eventually drain all your engines coolant).

hope this helps.

If you have an owners manual that's in the glove box, look in that under radio, it might help. Some models have factory set codes 000 or 0000, try that, if it works, it would be a good idea to make your own code, then you'll have it.

disconnect the battery for a few minutes then reconnect. you should have 3 more tries

Hi,
It is best to buy a new set of head bolts when doing head work. This is because they stretch when torqued, and may not like doing it again - possibly failing, so for £20 or so - it really isn't worth it.
Use a light smear of anti sieze on the threads and under the heads to avoid tearing.

You are likely to need a medium torque wrench - and also angular tightening information specific to your engine.

Don't forget to re-torque after run-in.
