Hi,
I have a accord 92 ex 5sp. It is having intermittent starting problem. When I
put the key in ON position (just before start), I hear continuous "clicking"
noise around the IACV/EACV (idle air control valve). The IACV has the
original Denso electronics. When I disconnect the electric connection to it,
the noise stops. TI measured the voltage at the wire of the connector (not at
the IACV), it has about 8V instead of 12V. When I don't get the noise, the
car starts but when i hear the clicking noise, it doesn't start. I replaced
the distributor recently and also the mail relay few months back.
Anybody had this issue and how to resolve it? Thanks.
