Thanks Siri. 1. How much will it cost a fuel filter? 2. Is there a good place\mechanic that I can go to do a engine tuneup and check the first point ("Timing – this must be done by the Honda specialist. And check the timing belt position as well") Thanks Ruwan

Not yet machan. I didn't get a time yet to go to a garage (to do engine diagnostic). Will post if the root cause is identified :-)

This is a EFI car. Thanks . I'll do a diagnostics and see its results.

Thanks Don, I already replaced the all plugs (NGK) and did a throttle body cleanup, tuneup few time ego. That didn't fix the issue. I guess what you meant by "Running a diagnostics by connecting to a computer" is doing a scanning of the car electrical system for faults. Is that correct? Can you please let me know a good place to get this done? Can this type of issue occurred by a bad sensor? (Ex: TPS sensor) Thanks

Hi, My car is EK3 1996 EXI manual one. My car having an issue with the acceleration as below. When the accelerator is pressed and keep steady, I feel like car is not pulling forward properly and the car doesn’t get the speed as it supposed to do. (feel like car doesn't pickup well) This doesn't happen all the time and in such cases, what I do is release the accelerator and press it again. Then, it gives proper pulling power and car speed gets increased. (this also doesn't work some times ) I feel this issue mostly when going on higher gears (3 or 4) and also feel acceleration is jerky. Any help on this is appreciated. Thanks Ruwan

Hi All. Thanks for the valuable comments from you all. I got checked my car and found that there was no Thermostat valve in my car. So, I bought a one and get it installed. (Cost me 3250/= for the thermostat valve). I'll check whether the Engine temperature is stable once I got a chance to go in hill country again. Thanks Ruwan

Hi All. I’m having EK3 1996 which I bought recently. When going on cold whether (specially in night driving in hill country), I have noticed that the Engine temperature becomes very low. (Near to the bottom). As I read from the internet, similar issue can be occurred by a faulty thermostat or not having a thermostat at all. Can you please comments whether the thermostat could be the problem? If so, how much will it cost to install a new Thermostat valve? Thanks Ruwan

Hi, Forgot to mentioned. I need a MANUAL gear.

Hi All, I am looking forward to buy a car. My choice is Nissan fb14(Model after 1996) or Honda EK3(Model around 1996) Can you guys please comment about these two cars.(Which one is better) I'm considering following key points. Fuel consumption Price comfort and features(Also the look and feel) My budget is between 1.3M - 1.5M Thanks
