1986 Honda Accord LX review from North America

"It goes well"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

When I first received the vehicle the interior was in mint condition as it usually holds together well in all accords. I needed to replace the water pump.

I also needed to replace the carb twice dude to the engine dieing after release of the gas pedal (very dangerous when coasting corners) Alternator was replaced.

I also needed to replaced the temperature gage switch. At about 325,000 I had to replace the clutch, which was the origional, the new one cost only $110 (CAD).

Replaced front passenger wheel bearing. Replaced what I would think was also the original fuel pump. Now after about a year and half I haven't had to do nothing more, I just need to replace the valve cover gasket which is minor. Replacement parts are cheap and you will find many pieces you need in the "pick a part" car yards.

General comments?

This car was taken car of and I continue to take care of it and I know this will pull 400,000k. This is a good car I have lost some fuel effciency lately I get about 520-600 a tank, I have gotten as much as 690 on the tank. It is a very comfortable car all around and is reliable and cheap to run. Handling is very responsive at lower speeds. There isn't to much power to hurt gas consumption and theres enough to get you there quick if you try. The size isn't to big to hurt gas consumption and it isn't to small so that you feel cramped.
