2001 Honda Accord--4cyl
My veh currently have 270,000 miles on it. I noticed this morning at the red light, it kinda jerked while at idle as if it wanted to cut off. I was wondering if someone might know what this means?

Maybe misfiring? How are all the normal tune-up things? Spark plugs? Distributor cap & wires?

Veh is serviced at Honda dlr and is up to date on all service records..

Replacing the spark plug wires isn't on any kind of schedule, but you might check them.
Engine completely cold & do this in complete darkness (4am tomorrow?) Open hood, start engine, turn off all the lights. Look for arcing around the plug wires or distributor cap. (Spray water from a windex bottle to make it more visible) Any arcing means you should replace that wire (or the cap). Also... I think any serious misfiring would have set off the check-engine-light. So is the CEL working? It should turn on for 2 seconds when you first turn the key ON. |
