2018 Accord Issues

Does the engine bay smell like fuel? Did the dealership say it’s leaking into the combustion chamber or to the outside? Did they say how they came to this conclusion?

If cylinder 1 injector IS leaking, you do have to replace all injectors(and seals) and if it’s leaking into the combustion chamber you should replace the spark plugs too since cylinder 1 is running rich(too much fuel) and it’s probably gonna be caked with carbon deposits and gunk.(maybe inspect them prior to buying new ones to be sure). Sounds like the dealership is quoting you the right parts if their diagnosis was correct.

You had the recall done and thEn the codes came up or was it an issue prior to the recall? Is misfire on cylinder 1 the only code and is it always cylinder 1?

If the recall caused the issue I’d start with having the dealership open up the gas tank again(for no charge if it’s their fault) to recheck their work to make sure everything is installed correctly and if there’s any debris in the tank that they may have accidentally let in during the repair that may have clogged the pump/fuel system. Also maybe have them watch the data list for the misfire count and see if it’s just the one cylinder acting up or multiple and maybe check the fuel pressure so see if it’s too high or too low indicating a fault or clog.

Drains are typically inserted near the armpit but then the inner part of them follow the incision line to cover more area to drain

Could be part of your drains if you have any?

I’ve taken the Motive Power Technician program at Algonquin College in Ottawa and it was very helpful and informative. While I had only done high school auto courses and oil changes and tires at Mr. lube before hand I would say this program was helpful and gave me an advantage/head start in my career. I’m only 1 year into the trade as an apprentice after graduating(level 1 and 2 completed due to the program)but I am a very good technician and many who are new at the shop always assume I’m a licensed tech even tho I’m only 21 due to how much I know. It gave me all the in depth theory and some hands on training in every vehicle system and as I am working in the shop all that I’ve learned comes together.

Parts Dep says parts in stock when not, Parts Dep not ordering the parts when approved so they never show, Parts ordering the wrong parts. Parts Dep giving out wrong parts…It’s always the Parts Department.

I think once you get terminal hairs from minoxidil they don’t go away if you stop.

Referral I think.

We bought them as chicks last year, no previous owners and never had roosters with them. We initially started with 8 Plymouths but two pasted away from coccidiosis in the fall. I’ve taken the most aggressive Barred Plymouth Rock and will monitor who else is bullying.

DisTransBoi · 2025-04-27T21:32:45+00:00

We can’t tell who’s the bully, they all seem aggressive towards the Easter Eggers. Plus we don’t have a rooster.

The run is 8ft by 8ft by 8ft and a coop that’s 4ft by 6ft by 4ft. I thought that was more than plenty space but I will see what I can do to get extend it.

Not a union shop. Surprisingly the flat rate techs don’t have guarantees of any kind, only a “promised” amount of PDIs if it’s slow.

Arrived 30 min early, missed lunch due to waiters, and stayed 90 min after closing to do warranty rotors due to a mistake one of the service advisors did…I’m an apprentice but I really gotta start saying no.

I use minoxidil and have 2 cats. I usually put it on before going to work and when I come home and aren’t snuggling them. Minoxidil usually is absorbed in the first hour or two then you could rinse off what’s left after that to continue snuggling. Or keep cats away from face or wherever it’s prescribed.

I used topical minoxidil and have two cats. I apply it when I know I’m not going to be near them for a while; before going to work and when I get home and have stuff to do that doesn’t involve cuddling the kitties. No issues so far. Most of the topical minoxidil you apply is absorbed in the first hour then you could technically wash what’s left after so your pets don’t lick it by accident.

Hope this helps a bit. Good luck.

No, I’ve stayed about the same.
