I guess I’d take that over the purely DI setups, but I still would simply prefer to have port injection and not worry about the highly pressurized fuel system of a DI motor to begin with.

Two weeks later light comes back on. Same code. This time another dealer pulls the head and finds carbon buildup on all four piston heads. They clean up the engine, clean the throttle body and declare the vehicle fixed. Total charges paid for by Honda of America under goodwill claim except $217 for the throttle body cleaning. That was yesterday and I will know within days if the original problem persist.

The first symptom is a car that jumps out of fifth gear, but once it gets to the point where that has started to happen the gearbox can soon after collapse internally, locking the rear wheels. Which, at freeway speeds and with three-and-a-half tonnes hanging off the tow-bar, would be very interesting to say the least.

The automotive fuel rail is a component of the fuel delivery system in a vehicle, containing different essential parts which have significance in the efficient delivery of fuel. The primary function of the automotive fuel rail and the fuel delivery system is of supplying fuel to the engine. It is a pipe used to deliver fuels to the individual fuel injectors on the internal combustion engines. Another function of the automotive fuel rail is the optimal distribution of fuels such as the gasoline, methane, etc. to the injectors. The pressure systems in such endothermic systems can be high or low. The use of automotive fuel rail is an attempt to reduce evaporative fuel emissions, mainly in gasoline engine vehicles. With the installation of the automotive fuel rail, overall system cost and weight can be reduced because the pulsation dampener can be eliminated from the fuel delivery system. The design of the automotive fuel rail is based on the instantaneous flow rate requirements. The volume elasticity i.e. the stiffness balance and the strength of the rail can also be optimized, which further helps in obtaining the required energy absorption performance and necessary mechanical strength on the automotive fuel rail.

Autojournos make a big fuss about rated fuel economy and the latest underhood technology, but the mpg and acceleration gains from CVT + DI + turbo are just too small in a midsize sedan to be worth any additional maintenance like this. 30K mile fuel delivery cleaning services on a B-segment economy car–I thought people bought Hondas to avoid this sort of thing.

That’s why you see a lot of these vehicles hitting the second-hand market just before the odometer ticks over 100,000km.

I made it home from quite a ways back on a public access road in a National (US) Forest by using my bootlaces to replace the broken throttle cable. Removed tc assembly and routed the laces through the hole in the firewall. Neat part was that on those 80s Ford trucks the cruise control used a separate cable. All I had to do was use my new hand throttle to get back to pavement and then I could use cruise to give my hand a rest. I did have to buy a new tc the next day, but at least I didn’t have to walk out 12+ miles to pavement.

Market share of global Diesel Common Rail Injection System industry is dominate by companies like Bosch, Delphi, Denso, Continental and others which are profiled in this report as well in terms of Sales, Price, Revenue, Gross Margin and Market Share (2017-2018).

The Interceptor gets an optional touring seat that gets a firmer foam padding with a unique French cross stitched cover. Interestingly, the Continental GT 650’s ‘touring seat’ is a single seater unit with a integrated cowl at the back. The seat profile is scalloped for comfort. RE are also working on a twin seat version of the ‘touring seat for the Continental GT 650.

Because it’s not a Honda problem – VW and others had a huge problem but this is an anomaly from someone who did not read their manual.
