When I Got My Car. The Engine Light Was Constantly On by AutoManual: 3:14pm On Apr 01, 2023 |
I bought a scanner but I couldn't used it. There was cover that cover the ODB2 port and I couldn't open it. So I just first leave it like that. I ask my mechanic of the engine light that is constantly showing he said that's how it should be. If the engine doesn't show the car will not move. He said if the engine light is blinking that when there is problem. I have been using the car like that but the way its consuming fuel. I had to vex and find way to remove the cover. I scanned the car and found a problem. Cylinder 1, 3 & 4 misfire. I showed it to my mechanic and told him that I did research that the engine light is not surpose to show constant. He said on Tuesday we will fix it. He said it's likely the Plug or nosole. How do I know it's the plug. Can fuel pump cause it? Also what could make 3 cylinders to misfire? I use a V6 and 3 cylinder from it is misfiring. Is this enough reason to consume fuel? If I fix it will there be much improvement? |

Seems you love attention a lot. I don't see the need for you to create multiple threads. You can maintain just one thread or go to car talk section and state your problem under the hinda thread there since you bought a honda car. 1 Like |

And I drove the car with AC blasting. But the engine light didn't appear. I don't know if it will appear again or how soon it will appear? |

If you crank your car twice or more than,before it starts then the plugs are bad. Check if the plugs are the same spec for engine. If not na misfire upon misfire . Also real plugs for v6 costs 60k upwards, fake China clones will cost u 10k |
