The problem with overheat is due to poor coolant circulating. The main culprit is the Radiator. When the radiator is clogging up, coolant can't be circulating. The stagnant coolant inside the engine water jacket keeps absorb heat from combustion chambers having no way to dissipate the heat then the engine is overheated. You can test the water pump by removing the thermostat, then hooking everything back. Open the radiator cap, then turn on the engine to see if water flowing down to several small tubes inside the radiator. If water can't go down fast enough to cause over flow at radiator opening then your 90 Legend Radiator already got clogged up. Replace with a new radiator, not even a rebuilt one. Good luck.
Location of the starer on a 93 accura legend
Hello! The starter on a 1993 Legend is very well hidden. It is behind the left drive axle.
I'll give you the removal steps to give you a better idea.
Disconnect the wires from the starter motor solenoid...
Unbolt the bracket from the starter motor...
Remove the left drive axle (see chapter 8 in a Haynes repair manual)
Remove the forward section of the exhaust system (chapter 4)
Remove the starter mounting bolts and carefully maneuver the starter motor from under the vehicle.
As you can see this is a very difficult job.
Good luck.
