I just had my cylinder head reconditioned and I was trying to adjust my valve clearances. I noticed first that when I tried to adjust cylinder 4, I lined up the timing mark for cyilinder 4 and went to adjust the valces and found that they were far too tight to be adjusted. So I turned it to...

Hi all, I recently noticed something a little out of the ordinary with my 2010 Honda Accord EX-L V6 Sedan. Whenever I accelerate, it seems like the car is shifting later than it would usually shift. Usually with light acceleration, the car will upshift at around 2-3k rpms, but now its more like...

Hello everyone, I bought a 2006 Honda Accord V6 6-Speed in Gunmetal Grey with 88k on it. When I got the car it needed a few small things and took care of them. I had to replace the rear rotors which wasn't too bad. One problem I'm having is really bad gas mileage. I'm not a speeder and I don't...
