would say its the cam or crank sensor, failing them the coil pack is over heating. hope this helps these the main problems that can do this.

Should be behind the glove compartment

Print the parts of a wiring diagram you need, at a repair shop, off their data base Too old for the trouble trees, unless you find OE Factory Manuals on E-Bay or somewhere

Hi Have a diagnostic scan carried out. Sounds to me as if the problem is with the air flow sensor. Regards John

Replace them, usually with the control arm. This way it will get new bushings, too, which are probably worn.

The lens either has a small tab that you release it with or there are screws. It this is on the interior then the finishing cover just snaps on. Use something not metallic if you need to assist in gently prying at it. A screw driver may crack your glass.

Yes, fuse and or relay

check the bolt holes and bolts to inspect for damaged threads and repair or replace as needed. if this is good you may need to add Loctite to the threads of the bolts. use blue Loctite as this will allow removal later on if you need to remove the bolts.

the computer controls it bot it could be the crankcase position censer ect. have someone hook a computer to read codes on it

Test or check the crank position sensor. Look for the 5 volt reference signal (your prelude may have a higher reference voltage- I don't know), check that the ground wire is good, then see if you get a signal from the signal wire. See if you can back probe the signal wire with the engine cranking. If the sensor is at fault, the ecu cannot determine spark timing. Look at a wiring diagram to see if the camshaft position sensor is also part of spark timing.

It can be a number of things, check for vacuum leaks at the manifold, fuel filter,pcv valve, iac valv

The battery sounds like it's dead, it may have enough power to make noise for a few but it not charging. May also be the alternator going bad and causing the battery not to fun

Pull the "back up" fuse for 15 seconds. This is not a reverse light fuse, it provides constant power to the PCM, radio and clock.

yes it is an interference engine.

Honda engines are interference engines which means that valve damage will occur if the belt has broken or the correct procedure is not followed during belt replacement.

here is a u-tube video with a good tip for making sure the timing marks dont get move once set may help How to replace timing belt on Honda Prelude 92 96 2 3 lt H23a1

Crank or cam sensor or computer failed
