helm has a great factory service manual selection, also you can probably get lucky and find one in a google search or maybe even on here. search "1995 accord service manual" i remember seeing them free for download or pdf view online. I know i seen alot more for earlier and later accords than my '99 when i was searching yesterday. good luck
If it idles rough it runs rough,you just don't notice it
You can start anywhere you want
If you haven't changed spark plugs in 3 years do that
Replace any front or upstream O2 Sensors over 100,000 miles
Check fuel pressure,tps sensor voltages,check for loose air filter cover,vacuum leaks,loose O2 sensor,just go thru the entire engine,it obviously needs work & I will bet it hasn't seen much & you don't know what is done when you ask & pay for work. May sound harsh but many shops aren't there to resolve problems, they throw on as many parts as the people on this site do at home, from the questions is see here,dealers guess as well and don't road test,kind of sad really
There are a number of reasons the SRS light will come on for. Most commonly they are Impact Sensors, Clockspring, and Airbag Module. I don't know what sensors you replaced or what code is showing up, but you may have another bad sensor. This does happen. More likely than that is a bad connection at these sensors. Take them apart and clean all terminals. Make sure they are making good clean contact. Also check for a broken or nicked wire in the area.
A fuel filter would not have an effect on one cylinder
& you know how long it was in the car
It could be there 3 to 5 years & be just fine
Don't assume that a code last time that pointed you to a bad
coil will happen that way again.
Codes don't really tell you to change anything
You could have a code for #5 & walk a new coil for 4 cyl's
until you get to # 6 now you found the bad one.
You have several coil packs that feed more than one
plug, you have more to consider
I approach this the way I am, as you most likely
can not test anything, because you lack the proper
equipment ,so you have to do things the hard or longer
way of trial & error. Just don't throw money & parts at
it in doing so
Are the O2 Sensors really old? Over 80,000 miles
Do you have any vacuum leaks including exhaust before
the O2 & converter?
No different than any other OBD2 Malfunction Indicator Light
you get on your dash
My answer is pretty much the same,as we get hundreds of
these same check light questions every day
You can't work on your own car anymore, so it really doesn't
matter why or what the light is for,it still has to go in & be
diagnosed & resolved
That said, if the question is why or what with is wrong with the
srs or safety restraint system (air bag) don't know.
Has to be diagnosed by a repair shop with a professional scan
tool A code reader is of no value,so forget all the going to the
auto parts store advice for something free
There are others that say the same thing & I do not
want to tell you to change any part,no one should
You always use the codes to guide you to a system
area & then do some testing
You will need a repair shop
Don't throw parts at it
You can learn a lot on YOU TUBE about what an evap
system is & how they work
Also several parts manufactures web sites have educational
video
You can watch that stuff all day long for years & never see it all
No reason not to educate your self when you have an internet connection
Don't think you understand the technology that has
been on all vehicles for 30 years,that being OBD1
starting in 1980 & the current OBD2 96 thru 2011
Any time you get any check lights etc on your dash your
vehicle has detected a problem
Don't you find that the light is not normal & wouldn't
you want to know why
Read your owners manual
Your car has a problem that you need to first check for
codes,have diagnosed & then repaired
Those are the 3 steps you will be taking at least once
a year for the rest of your life & it will be expensive, if you
don't learn the technology & work on your on car
You have a malfunction in the SRS System (air bag)
& they may even be turned off in case you needed them
You NEVER need a dealer for ANY repairs,but you do
need to go to a local repair shop within a couple of days
ANYTIME you get ANY check lamp,MIL Lamp,Wrench,
etc on your dash.
A car is not like Windows 7 at all
It does not self diagnose & clearing the lights & codes only
prevent further diagnoses
There are NO computers used by your mechanic to do anything
ALL Scan Tools etc are data processors
Your car has no computer as you know them
There are also no tune-ups for 30 years,that is an
industry term for spark plugs & mostly a waste of
your money on other items
