Awesome tips! Thank you.
VIN 148 was purchased used at 16,000 miles in Fullerton, CA. Engine light was already on, and O2 sensor (#1) was not avail at shop. We had local San Diego dealer install.
Three O2 sensors replaced under warranty, and also the ECM was recalled/replaced. I don't have the codes handy, but they were 'bad O2' codes. This was all done at Cush Honda in San Diego/Mission Valley, under warranty.
In 2004 O2 was replaced by Poway Honda, out of warranty. They said the previous 'bad O2' codes were mis-reported due to faulty ECM. This report (sorry don't have the code handy) is 'for sure'.
May 2005, idle surging, drained batt, engine light on, took to Cush Honda in Escondido (all three shops have been dealers). He wants to replace injectors for $850. (Also replace a rat-chewed a/c wire for $350.)
Prior to this latest malady, have had no idle problems, no auto-stop stalls, no cold running problems. Clutch seems to be going -- it lurches at cruising speeds, sort of like 'slack' gear, just between coast and acceleration it often lurches.
Haven't had injectors cleaned. Haven't tested fuel mix. Praying to God that the catalytic converters are ok.
Next stop: The Dealer, where I will discuss this with him.
