so pissed off guys, just had it saftied and now it failed emission's let me tell you the story. So im driving to the shop and ovbiously im ripping it pretty hard to burn off all the nasty stuff, anyways i pull into the shop go inside and leave my car running, come back out and look inside and my oil light is on. Now its never been on before ever, it later ended up failing emissions because to high n.o.x, anyways driving home it seemed like when i was coming to a stop the oil light would like studder on and off but when i was up to speed it wouldnt be on. Could i of blown off a vaccum hose of some sort? please help

hmm no answer? anyways so the car starting up fine, runs good then i turn it off try and start it again, fires up then dies, after that try and start it again and it cranks and cranks and eventually fires up. Took the spark plugs out and it was literally full to the top of oil in all four holes, cleaned them all out and is running a little bit better but not really and still has the starting problem. Before you go ahead assuming what it is, ive replaced oil pressure sensor, new oil pan, egr, and fresh oil. When i did all this the car sat for a couple weeks id start it up everyday multiple times, on my way to etest i ripped it hard and when i got there the oil light came on. The oil light is flickering at low rpm's and all these problems started when the oil light first came on, ever since then its be faacccked. what im thinking is the oil pump is going, should i wire in a oil pressure gauge and see the the pressure is?

if you are getting oil in your spark plug hole i would fix that first. you could be looseing presure from the seal leaking oil in the holes. as far as the nox im not sure might be a bad cat . post up your sheets so we all can take a look at them.this was put together by evil_demon_01 .

Put a oil pressure gauge on it and go from there.

dud e thats your oil presure switch min does that from time to time replace it with the seals that are leaking . and do a full tune up change your oil and oil filter with air filter and do not go cheap.
if it fails again try some b12 run it on a full tanke . clean egr system test egr valve and silonnoid . then after that go to a smog shop on a fresh tanke of gas. if that fails then replace your cat .
edit my neck hurts . do you have pics of them straight up and down ? how your car is idleing needs to be fixed to hi of a idle will cause you to fail smog.Last edited by Accord problems; 08-15-2012, 04:02 PM.this was put together by evil_demon_01 .

High HC points mostly to an engine running rich. Ignition components being weak and not able to burn the fuel properly. At the same time , high NOx means you're running lean. You may also have a clogged EGR system and a bad catalytic converter. I had high NOx on my old CB , the cat was out as it gave out foul smell and it was running rich not burning the fuel properly.Last edited by ExplodingCake; 08-15-2012, 04:20 PM.
