Bogging/Lack of power.

[cleanwithit0607]

Alright fellas, I have a 92 accord, LX, Automatic. Haven't been on the forum for a while. Anyways, Whenever I pull off from a stop, say a stop sign, or light. My car won't go, and if I want it to go, I have to hit the gas for a few seconds to get it going. Once I'm around 30 mph I'm good to go. Transmission fluid is good. Any other ideas?

Sounds like your TCU/ Solenoid isn't working.

Try stopping, Putting the car in 1 then manually shifting to 2, then 3,4.

If it works fine you just need a TCU.

also check the iac valve. but like the other person said, so much stuff that could be wrong.

i may have this problem, i usually manual shift when im playin around and it doesnt bog. when im in just 4, it picks up a little sluggish, then gets power at around 2krpm and doesnt lose power at all. only when im taking off in d4 is when i feel it. i was also thinkin about my plug wires, bosh with ngk plugs, any suggestions?

you just say the car "wont go"


do you mean it revs and wont move? or wont rev at all

Sorry, haven't been able to get on. Still doing the same thing.

It won't go until I hit the gas for a few seconds. Then it gets power. I'm kind of thinking it's my cat, because I hear a rattle under the car, don't know how to explain it, when I first take off.

Same here around 2,100 RPMs, it holds there for a second, then I push the gas, and it revives itself. I always leave my car in D4, so i'm having the same exact problem you are. Figure anything out yet? Anybody else have any suggestions? I'm about to hit up Autozone for some new Spark Plugs, and Wires. Try the eastiest things first....

c92blx7 said replace tcu, which i believe is 'transmission control unit'. anyone wanna confirm this?

Ok I went outside and messed around with it. When I put it in 1st and go, it's perfectly fine;good acceleration. But then I put it in 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and it runs like crap. I did the manually shift thing, at a stop. Could you please explain to me why I should try that?

Yes, Transmission Control Unit(TCU)
