1993 Honda Civic VX review from North America
"Very good quality and economical"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I live in Québec.
I bought my 1992 Civic VX in 2000 at 32000 km.
Now it's at 205000 km.
My engine stalls in neutral and is very hard to start without giving it gas.
So I installed new sparks plugs: the NKG ZFR4F-11.
When changing them, I realized that the dealer had installed the wrong ones in 2003; they were the ZFR5F-11.
I had my Idle Air Control Valve cleaned by a Honda dealer last month.
I had my distributor changed for a new one last year.
I also had a new fuel reservoir and a new battery last year.
The dealer said that my fuel pump was OK, that my igniter and coil were also OK, and that my ECU was OK.
I get the code 14, 18 and 48.
Could someone help me on this please?
