Guys,

Just got my Accord couple months back. I was focused on getting it to run again with MT replacement. I've been getting engine shutting down intermittently while driving. Been happening almost every other day. Especially when driving first couple miles. I'm able to start it while the vehicle is moving at netural. Yet, I'm concerned about safety when engine shuts down in middle of driving. Any ideas where to look for?

 

Verify battery and alternator connections are clean and tight.
Verify battery is fully charged and maintaining a charge.

If this problem only occurred after transmission replacement verify all the wiring connections were reinstalled correctly and are not damaged/corroded. Again clean and tight connections. Verify all components were reinstalled correctly, look for loose components.

Does the engine shutting down seem to be affected by weather or if the engine is cold or hot?

Verify the Main Relay is maintaining voltage, check for cold solder joints.
Verify the ignition switch is not the problem, with the engine running jiggle the key around to see if it causes the engine to cut out.
Verify the fuel pump is receiving battery voltage.

 

Thanks for making time to reply. Hmm, looks like the ignition switch issue is somewhat common from what I've searched. How to I verify the main relay is maintaining voltage?

 

main Failure causing such symptume would be loos connection of small wires contacts inside of the distributor , you need ro locate on the distributor position and remove the cap and check the connections of wires inside of the distributor.
goodluck,
