your "rpm gauge" is your tachometer.

a lot of 4th gen. accords have a rough idle in reverse. i know i do. it hasn't been a huge problem for me though.

i belive u can find out what ur RPM is by locating this blue wire near the distribitor cap and putting a tester in its place....thats will tell u ur Rpms..

hmm... could be related to the motor mounts, might want to have them checked... the only other thing that even comes to mind would be the tranny... does your steering wheel shake when you are reversing, or just the car..?

[accordztech]

check ur front mount, it should have rubber on the 3 points, if u see a crack then there is ur problem

mine just usually has a firece idle usually...my reverse is worse though...

I have that problem to. My RPMs dip dpwn to almost 6 or 7 hundred. My steering wheel andmy whole front end shakes as well. Could it be my tranny?

if the steering wheel shakes then it could possibly be the tranny.

[accordztech]

its the motor mount NOT THE TRANNY!
