Just picked up a 92 Accord LX Sedan.

Pulls to the right a bit. And I mean it just barely pulls.

Alignment?
Tire pressure?

It's all stock right now, so if it's adjusting air pressure doesn't do anything I will do a full suspension set up all at once with an alignment job.

 

well, sounds like you already know what to do. i'd check tire pressure make sure they're equal on both sides, then alignment.

 

Also check the camber on each front wheel if you find you have to OVERcoorrect the alignment. A steering knuckle may be bent but probly alignment

 

What is the difference between camber and alignment ? I thought camber kits were only needed when a car was lowered. I feel dumb for asking this, but I've just never has either of these problems with my other Honda's.

 

alignment also corrects the toe. negative toe is when the front of the tire is facing a little bit inwards towards the car, positive toe is when the front of the tire is facing a little bit outwards, away from the car. toe is what kills the tread on tires, not so much the camber. with negative camber, tires look like this: / \ with positive camber, the tires look like this \ / its ok to have no more than negative .5º of camber, but toe should be within .08º.

as far as pulling to the right goes, just check tire pressure, then take it in for an alignment

 

My car always pulls to the right I have tried almost everything, including asking the dealer to look at it. I am going to change my tires soon and see if it helps, but I believe it is a honda conspiracy - I have read other stories about the dealers saying it was "radial pull"

ya it may be the knuckle thats bent.. according to the math and everything, the alignment may be correct, but because a knuckle is bent, the measurements are off

 

you sure you may not be feeling torque steer?

Not sure. Don't know the Accord like I did my Civic. Never driven a F22. I haven't even driven with power steering before. I ripped out the PS in my Civic to help feel the road better. And my CRX didn't come with PS.

 

yeah i know what your saying, IMO ps is a waste of weight and extra strain on the motor that isnt really needed. i find it easier to drive with out it then with it. i dont like how it jerks the wheel around.

dude, you mean CASTER, right?

if the rear wheels's caster to pointed to the right, you'll be steering to the left all the time and the car still want to pull to the right.

plus the slope of the road also enlarge the "pulling" effect also

Um..totally agree with your logic with PS on a modded car, but in this case a heavy, underweighted, family sedan
