    Changing front parking lightbulb

    Thanks, Champ--very helpful. One other Q in his regard: Both the parking light and side marker light on the passenger side are out. Is this a coincidence that both burned out or are they wired together so that if one goes the other doesn't work...or, is there a fuse for just one side?

    Changing front parking lightbulb

    The bulb went out on the passenger side of my '92 and I think that I was able to get a phillips head driver on the screw from under the bumper. However, it just keeps turning and turning and I can't pull the light unit out. Q--Is that phillips head srew supposed to come out or does it remain...

    One more jack stand question.

    Be careful in putting the car on 4 stands--make sure the first side you raise is good and solid. Also,this may be overkill, but when I raise my car up on all fours, I also put bocks or jacks on the center jacking points as well, just to be sure.

    Help - leaking coolant

    Before you jump to conclusions about a head gasket, track down where the leak s coming from. On the passenger side there is the water pump/its hoses and hoses going to the oil cooler. If you have trouble seeing where it's coming from , you can use a black light/dye kit to track it down.

    Not starting/no power...now starting fine

    Another connection to check is the wire to the starter solenoid. Check to see if it is loose or has any corrosion on it. I had an occasional/episodic no-start problem with my '92 about 5 years ago and this was one of the main things which was recommended for me to check. If this is bad, no juice...

    Lighting/ Electrical issues

    Regarding the turn signal issue, I had to replace the turn signal canceller unit on my '92 a few years ago. I tried to clean it first, but it didn't work. Upon replacement of the unit, all's been fine. By the way, replacing the unit was not difficult.

    Amen--I had my baby out also. This is the first winter in about 11--12 years that I haven't taken my sportscars off of the road. I wish every winter were like this!

    Help: Injector leak (gas leaking)

    If it is the injector, you can replace the rubber o rings. Be sure it 's not a crack in the rail or loose fitting . Replacing the o rings has been a topic on this Forum and some of the more experienced NSX'r's can guide you through the process and, from what I recall, it is not difficult.

    Battery woes

    You're right--forget about recharging it; it's shot.

    Battery woes

    I'd replace the battery . I had a brand new battery in my '92 when I first got the car and it would keep discharging. After all of the fret over what could be killing the battery, it turned out to be nothing more than a defective battery. When you install your new battery, be careful not to...

    Pininfarina?

    I've read in a couple of sources over the years that Honda commissioned Pininfarina to design the NSX. Is this true? Usually when Pininfarina has its hands in a design project the car bears a Pininfarina badge. Just curious.

    New NSX owner, a few questions...

    When I first got my '92, I had the same question. According to the mechanics I'd spoken with and numerous comments on Prime, it is normal to have that funny idle in that rpm range. If I recall correctly, I believe that someone indicated that it had something to do with theearly v-tec system(?)...

    Snap ring advice

    I had a snap ring failure in my '92 a few years ago and when I inquired with the dealer, their first statement was that it likely would not be covered due to the age of the car AND indicated that the "repair ' would likely be a whole new transmission! Since I was able to have the job done by...

    Ignition switch question.

    I had an intermittant no-start problem with my '92 several years ago. In my case, there was nothing at all when I tried to start it--not even a click--and all of the dash lights worked. In my case, it was the clutch no-start switch. I disconnected it and short-circuited the wiring to it. The...
