is the canadian version of the 2.0L carbed engine different then the us version (sopposely us cars have a oxygen sensor whereas the candian cars dont)
also local dealer says its almost $1000 dollars for a new carb to get the car to pass aircare and i dont really believe it.
just get a rebuilt carb and it should be fine. your from BC i take it?

my dx carb has 1 O2 sensor.
1989 Honda Accord LX-i
B18c1 swap since 7/2011
175whp and 132tq
Redzone tuned
Yea my LX(carb) has one, but i believe they are useless on a carb until it comes time for emissions. You can also rebuild your own carb, or pull one from the junkyard.Originally Posted by MessyHonda

I think the 88-89 has an O2 sensor but the 86-87 don't . My 87 hatch doesn't have one but my 89 had one.

If you can tell us what failed the emissions test, we might be able to further help you out in terms of tuning, repair, etc.
ICHIBAN!
"Now, even more better!"
im from vancouver, i always thought that aircare was province wide...
not to get off topic or anything, but how do those JDM cars in that area pass aircare?
$1000 is bogus,
check the market place someone was selling carbs, but they were us spec, so usually they'll have the air jet controller and you'rs wont.

failed on the driving test (4% CO needs less then 1%)
other then the aircae problem its a great car that needs 200 bucks in other work to get it in great condition (timing belt, waterpump, battery)
but if its not the carb what checks should i be preforming on it?
anything you think is worth the trouble on the list provided in this link

so lets say i buy this car and need to trace everything, how hard is it to do it all and what tools are needed (vacuum pump, simple tools, anything else?)
what would you seggest as the first thing to check on it (probly gonna go look at it tomorrow)
Download the PDF of the shop manual first, that will give you an idea of what tools you need for the job.
