94 Accord Fuel Problem
Hi,
I just recently had the code pulled from my 94 Accord EX Coupe, the CEL kept coming on and off int. The code that I got is the following:
43-2 Fuel Supply Over Lean
The guys at Pep Boys got me the code out for free, but wanted a arm and a leg just for a diagnostic fee to figure out what's wrong. My question is what might be causing this and what the soution is - maybe a vaccum leak in the fuel lines...??

Thank you for the replies,
I have never gotten the fuel filter changed and the car has about 152,xxx on it, but I have never used cheap gasoline or driven in areas with a low octane offering. As the fuel injectors go, I usually put in a bottle of STP or any other brand fuel system cleaner about every 5,000 miles. I will try to use some Lucas Fuel System cleaner and see if it solves the problem.

I just put in a bottle of Lucas Fuel Injector Cleaner, hoping that it will help unblock and clean anything that might be in the injectors. If that doesn't do, I will probably have to pull the injectors and check them out.
How would I be able to check if there is a leak in the fuel lines or the fuel pressure is wrong, I mean, there is absolutely no gas leaking or the smell of it.

Does the car have any running problems along with the code? A rough idle or a loss of power?

RE: 94 Accord Fuel Problem
It's just code 42, the car seems to have some power loss at times, it hesitates a bit when going up-hill, but other than that performance wise nothing else is affected. The thing that is affected are the MPG's, went from 26 city to about 22 if I am lucky in the city.
