6/3/2010 testdrivePlease change or inspect the radiator cap, and be sure to replace it with the exact OE specifications (OE is 1.1). then try to observe if it will still overheat, the vehicle's cooling system will not properly circulate with a worn out radiator cap. Also, check if the oil level in the car is at its maximum level. No engine oil also causes overheat to the engine.

possible distributor:
PURPOSE
Acts as a rotary switch, distributing the firing voltage using a distributor rotor and distributor cap in a pre-set sequence.
OPERATION
A cast aluminum housing contains the Ignition Control Module, Ignition Coil Module, and sensors for fuel injection timing. The distributor spins in syncronization with the camshaft, and is direct driven off the passenger side end of the cam. Rotates clockwise when viewed from the distributor's rotor end.

When I turn on the Switch for the fan to blow nothing comes out of the vents for the acKathryn - 1991 Honda Accord - Engine - 6/3/2010-
6/3/2010 HouseCallAutoSo the blower is not turning on at all. Check the fuse, if the fuse is good check the blower by jumping power and ground to the two pins to verify that it is still good and if it is I would replace the blower resistor.
6/3/2010 Kathrynok thank you but where is the resistor located at on the honda accord 1991 and the blower
6/3/2010 Kathrynalso can you tell me what would cause the car to go up and down with the idleing when I first start it then go to normal when it is when I take off in it for the first five minutes, also the brakes squeak for less then five minutes then they are fine. these two things only happen when the car sits for a long period of time, like overnight and or when I get off of work after 8 hours.

Squeeling noise only when turning on the air conditioner. what's the problem?Timothy P - 2004 Honda Accord - Engine - 6/2/2010The air feels super cold for about 15-20 min. then it goes warm, and then back to cold. There is a mold smell when it goes warm. It sounds like the compressor is turning on and turning off. The temperture needle is almost at the middle and the cooling fans keep ...-
6/2/2010 Bobbysounds like the a/c system needs to be recharged or there is a problem within the system could really be anything compressor, evap. the mold smell is most likely fro debris built up in the hvac check for old leaves under the hood in the cowl area or moisture buildup in the hvac unit. The pressure sensor for the a/c system could be the problem. if the cooling fans keep coming on there could be an issue with the coolant temp sensor. Or like you said a sticking thermostat.
