    Cold Start Up Problem

    My '91 NSX has recently developed a cold start problem where the fuel mixture appears to be very rich - like a choke being full open - the exhaust is smoky and reeks of unburned fuel. The idle is surging up and down about 500 RPMS. After about 5 minutes it will suddenly lean out and run...

    Insurance Options

    It was simply because it was on a list of vehicles that they prefer not to insure. This was not a problem in the past, but they are switching the policy to another "system" and it was flagged for the NSX. When I spoke to them, they saw that they made an exception in the past, and not reason...

    Insurance Options

    Actually, to give Nationwide credit, right after I posted my issue, I called the Underwriter and they decided to reverse the cancellation. It did take about an hour on the phone, but I was pleased that they worked with me on this.

    Insurance Options

    Hello - my auto insurance carrier (Nationwide) will no longer write the NSX. My vehicle is a 1991. Does anyone know of a carrier who will underwrite a policy for this car?

    ATTN: 1991 owners! (1991 registry)

    I understand that there were some earlier pre-production cars built, but this one may have been one of the first 50 or so imported into the US.

    Early 1991 VIN's

    How funny. I looked at an older thread from 2003 where you had exactly the same exchange with my car's prior owner, Nick. :smile:

    Early 1991 VIN's

    Double-Checking Okay. The VIN on my 1991 is MT000098 with a 07/90 production date, is it conceivably the 35th NSX imported into the US market?

    OEM Leather Seat Covers

    The driver side left bolster on my '91 is starting to wear through. Is this section of the seat cover (probably both bolsters and the back) still available from Acura? I have searched on some online sites, and I am thinking these have been discontinued? If so, what aftermarket vendor would...

    Oil pressure low when cold, great when hot. Sending unit bad?

    The VIN on my 1991 is 0098. I have the same issues with erratic readings on the oil pressure gauge. I did replace the original sending unit with the SOS unit, but this did not correct the problem. The Acura Service Bulletin suggests that BOTH the sending unit and the gauge be replaced...

    Competent NSX Tech in Portland/Vancouver area?

    Greetings! I reside in the Vancouver (WA) community and own a '91 NSX that is currently in winter storage. In the past, I have worked with Lynnwood Acura (about 180 miles north of me) for repairs and other items. Charles Hart was the service manager and was great to work with, but it...

    SRS Failure

    I am experiencing the exact same problem in my '91. This is a dumb question, but how do you remove the #1 fuse (the one with the protective cover)? The little plastic extraction tool in the fuse box does not fit over it. I suspect that I might have the same problem with the SRS computer, but...

    SRS Light

    The SRS light suddenly illuminated a few days ago in my '91 (approx. 45K miles). This occurred while I was driving the vehicle rather than when I first started the vehicle. It has remained on since then. The battery was changed shortly before this occurred, so could that have something to do...
