Default 95 Accord problems help

I recently bought a 1995 Honda Accord coupe EX with the 2.2 inline 4 and automatic transmission. It has a few problems that I’m not sure what they are. For starters, it’s not getting the gas mileage it should. I don’t know what omg it’s getting but it uses about 2 gallons for a 35 mile trip. Also when I hit the brakes hard, say for example when I’m pulling off the highway, the engine light comes on and the idle starts going up an down. Another problem is my ABs light always comes on right after cranking the car and it stays on. Does anyone know what my problems could be?

There is no green cover under my dash on the passenger side. My car is a 95 model it should have an OBD1 port right?

I found the two wire plug, I connected the terminals, and checked the engine light. It stayed on. No blinks. What now?

No I didn’t do anything wrong. I connected both terminals with a wire and the engine light came on and stayed on. The abs light blinked long twice and once short.

Default What’s wrong with my car

I have a 1995 Accord coupe with the VTEC 2.2 engine. I’ve only had the car two weeks and I’ve noticed a few problems.

1. When I crank it up when the engines completely cold it runs fine and shifts out fine. But when it warms up the shifts get a little sloppy, and there’s an audible knocking from the engine from 1800K rpms to 2500K rpms.

2. When the engine is warmed up and I have the AC running, when I put it in drive and start going the engine bogs down. When I press the pedal it bogs down even more. But when I let off the gas it returns to normal, and then I can drive normally. This is only after th engine has warmed up and I’m pulling out of my driveway or parking spot.

3. In town the gas mileage seems good. But on the highway it doesn’t seem so great. It uses about 2 gallons for a 35 mike trip.

4. When I’m slowing down to get off of the highway, the CEL comes on and stays on until I shut the car off. Crank it up again and no CEL. I’ve checked for codes but the CEL stays solidly lit. Any ideas?

5. When I floor the gas pedal there’s little throttle response. The rpms jump way up.but I don’t feel Vtech (but I think I hear it kick in). When I let off the gas a little that’s when I feel some power to the wheels, I can feel the engine pulling. But floored I feel nothing.

So there’s a list of all my current issues. If you have any advice or if you know what any of the causes could be please reply to this thread. All help is appreciated.
