@ ne-oving the radiator cap while the engine
is hot can cause the engine coolant to splay out, seri-
ously scalding you. Always let the engine and radiatol
cool down betore removing the radiator cap.
CAUTION: When poudng engine coolant, be sure to shut
the relay box lid and not to let coolant spill on the elec-
tlical pans or the paint. ll any coolant spills, rinse it otf
immediately.
1. Slide the heater temperature control lever to maxi-
mum heat.
Make sure the engine and radiator are cool to the
touch.
2. Remove the radiator cao.
3. Loosen the drain plug on the bottom of the radiator,
and remove the drain bolt from the enoine block. Let
the coolant drain out.

5.
Remove the reservoir from its holder by pulling it
straight up. Drain the coolant, then put the reservoir
back in its holder.
When the coolant stops draining, apply liquid gasket
to the drain bolt threads, then reinstallthe bolt with
a new washer. Tighten it securely
6. Tighten the radiator drain plug securely.
7. Mix the recommended antifreeze/coolant with an
equal amount of water in a clean container.
NOTE:
. Use only HONDA-RECOMMENOED antifreeze/
coolant.
a For best corrosion protection, the engine coolant
concentrations must be maintained year-round at
50% MINIMUM. Coolant concentrations less than
50% may not provide sufficient protection
against corrosion or freezing.
CAUTION:
a Do not mix ditterent blands ot anti-freeze/
coolants.
a Do not use additional rust inhibitois or anti-rust
products; they may not bs compatibl€ with the
recommgndsd engins coolant.

1O. Refill the radiator to the base of the tiller neck. Put
the cap on the radiator. and tighten it only to the tirst
stop, Stan the engine and let it run until it warms
up (the radiator cooling fan comes on at leasttwice).
11. Turn oft the engine. Check the level in the radiator,
and add coolant it needed. Install the radiator caD,
and tighten it fully.

3. Fuel Cut-oft Control
a During deceleration with the throttle valve closed, current to the {uel injectors is cut otJ to improve fuel economy
at speeds over tollowing rpm:
. 8188l engine: 91O tpm (Canada model: 1,O50 rpm)
. 818C1 engine: 95O tpm (Canada model: l,O5O rpm)
a Fuel cut-olf action also takes place when engine speed exceeds, 7,O0O rpm {81 8B1 engine), 8,1O0 rpm (B 18Cl
engine), regardless oI the position of the throttle valve, to protect the engine from ovet-revving.
A/C Compressor Clutch Relay
When the ECM receives a domand for cooling trom the air conditioning system, it del8ys the compressor from being
enetgized, and enriches the mixture to assure smooth transition to the A/C mode.
Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Purge Control Solenoid Valve
When the engine coolant tempersture is below 163oF {73"C), the ECM supplies a ground to the EVAP pu.ge control
solenoid valve which cuts vacuum to the EVAP purge control diaphragm valve.
Intake Air Bypsss (lAB) Control Sol€noid Valve
When the engine rpm is below 5,750 rpm, the IAB control solenoid valve is activated by a signal from the ECM,
intske air flows through the long intake path, then high torque is delivered. At spaeds highe. than 5,750 rpm, the
solenoid valve is deactivated by the ECM, and intake air flows through the short intake path in order to reduce the
resistance in airflow.
ECM fail-safe/bEck-up Functions
1. Fail-sate Function
When an abnormality occurs in a signal from a sensor, the ECM ignores that signal and assumes a pre-progtammed
value tor that sensor that allows the engine to continue to run.
Back-uD Function
When an abnormalitv occurs in the ECM itself, the fuel iniectors are controlled by a back-up citcuit independent of
the system in order to permit minimal driving.
Self-diagnosis Function IMaltunction Indicator Lamp {MlL)1
Wh6n an abnormality occurs in a signal from a sensor, the ECM supplies ground for the MIL and stores the code
in erasable memory. When the ignition is initially turned on, the ECM supplies ground tor the MIL tor two seconds
to check the MIL bulb condition.
Two Trio Detection Method
To prevent tals€ indications, th€ Two Trip Dstection Method is used for the HO2S and fuel metering-related self-
diagnostic tunctions. When an abnormslity occurs, the ECM stores it in its memo.y. Wh€n the ssme sbnormality
recurs alter the ignition switch is turned OFF and ON ag8in, the ECM informs the driver by lighting the MlL.
However, to ease troubleshooting, this function is canc€ll€d when you short the service check connector. The MIL
will then blink immedistelv when an abnormality occurs.

Emission Control System
SystemDescription
The emission control system includes a Three Way Cata-
lytic Convener (TWC), Positive Crankcase Ventilation(PCV) system and Evaporstive Emission {EVAP) Contfol
syst€m. The emission control system is designed to meet
federsl and stats emission standards.

Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,OOO rpm with
no load (A/T in @ or@ position, M/T in neutral) until
the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle,
Connect a tachometer.
Check and adiust the idle speed, if necessary (sss
page 1 1-95).
Warm up and calibrate the CO meter according to
the meter manutacturer's inst.uctions.
Check idle CO with the headlights, hester blower,
rear window defogger, cooling fan, and air condition-
er otf.
NOTE: (Canada) Pull the parking br8ke lever up.
Stan the engine, then check that the headlights are
off.
CO meter should indicate 0.1 maximum.

Road Test
NOTE: Warm up the engine to operating temperature (the cooling fan comes on).
1 Apply parking brake and block th€ wheels. Start the engine, them move the selector lever to E] position whiledepressing the brake pedal. Depress the accelerator pedal, and release it suddenly. The engine should not stall,
2. Repeat same test in @ position.
3. Shift the selecto. lever to E position, and chock that the shift points occur at approximate speeds shown. Alsocheck fof abnormal noise and clutch slippage.
NOTE: Throttle position sensor voltage fepresents the throttle opening.
- 1 . Connect the Test Harness between the ECM and connector (see section 1 1).-2. Setthe digital multimeter to check voltage between D1 1{+)terminal and D22 { - ) terminal for the throttle Dosi-tion sensor.

Stall Speed
CAUTION:
a To plevent transmission damage, do not test stall speed fot mote than 1O seconds at a time.a Do not shift the level while raising th€ engine speed.a Be sure to remove the pressure gauge belot€ testing stall speed.
1. Engage the parking brake and block all four wheels.
2. Connect the tachometer, and start the engine.
3. Make sure the A/C switch is OFF.
4. After the engine has warmed up to normal operating temperature (the cooling lan comes on), shift into ft position.
5. Fully depress the brake pedal and accelerator for 6 to 8 seconds. and note engine speed.6. Allow 2 minutes for cooling, then repeat the test in [, fDil and @ positions.
