95 Accord not getting good Accel.
Hi Everyone

I'm driving an 95 accord LX coupe and I don't have any engine upgrades except a intake, still I feel even for a stock engine it's not picking up well. I have a 93 accord and I feel a big difference in pick up, anyone know why this could be happening? Could it be injectors? Any help would be great..thanks in advance.

Tune up was donce recently, less than 1500 miles ago.


The spark plugs are less than 3,000k miles old.

The car has 56K on it, and at 50,000 it had a major service.

almost impossible to tell what's wrong. make sure your valves are adjusted properly and get a compression and leakdown check done to see if all 4 cylinders are functioning properly.

All of the following could be causes of power lack. (I sure that there are more possibilities...these are the basics)

-incorrect ignition timing
-play in the distributor shaft
-worn tune up parts (plugs, wires, cap, rotor)
-incorrect spark plug gap(s)
-faulty coil
-fuel filter clogged and/or impurities in the fuel system
-emission control system not functioning properly
-low or uneven cylinder pressure
-obstucted exhaust system
-auto trans fluid level incorrect or clutch slipping
