my Honda Accord loses power when accelerating, what's the cause?

Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather tools and parts needed for the repair.
• Disconnect the negative battery terminal to ensure safety during repairs.

2. Replace Fuel Filter

• Sub-steps:
  1. Locate the fuel filter (usually along the fuel line under the car or in the engine bay).
  2. Relieve fuel system pressure by removing the fuel pump fuse and starting the engine until it stalls.
  3. Disconnect fuel lines from the filter using a line removal tool.
  4. Remove the old fuel filter and install the new one, ensuring correct orientation.
  5. Reconnect fuel lines securely.

3. Clean or Replace Air Filter

• Sub-steps:
  1. Open the air filter housing by releasing clips or screws.
  2. Remove the old air filter and inspect the housing for debris.
  3. Clean the housing with a damp cloth if necessary.
  4. Install a new air filter, ensuring it fits snugly.

4. Test and Replace Throttle Position Sensor (if necessary)

• Sub-steps:
  1. Locate the throttle position sensor on the throttle body.
  2. Disconnect the electrical connector.
  3. Use a multimeter to measure the voltage output at idle and fully open throttle.
  4. If readings are outside the specified range, remove and replace the TPS.
  5. Reconnect the electrical connector and clear any stored codes.
