i am new to this forum but it seems you guys are really up on the accord. so here is a stumper.
i have a 92 accord.. it runs rough when at a consistant speed. it runs good when you step on the gas. did a tune up and replaced plugs, wires, pvc valve, rotor, cap, air filter (it was full of oil like dirt), gas filter, and put in injector cleaner and ran through 2 treatments. there are times when it will not start.. if i let it sit or if i crank it 20-30 times it will fire up and run again. went to dealer and they suggested the distributer bearing may be going bad and i should replace it.. but they said that they were not positive that was the problem. any thoughts?

The bearing in the distributor on my 93 Accord wore out too. The dealer wouldn't sell me a new one - it was "recalled" for early distributor bearing failure and they replaced it for free. Maybe that applies to the 92 year models also. :smile:
