    hi guys im new to this.. i jus bought a 1992 honda accord ex ..and i have a little problem hoping u gusy can shed soem light...the car wa sin storage for 2 years berfor i got it..after it went through basic maintenance.. i started having some drivability problems..when im driving along in a staright line im hearing a squiling noise and it is when i turn and break also..had the mechanic checked it out they said new breaks ..so had the rear breaks changed to new..also now getting a sort of ticking noise from the front..

    i really dunno whuts causing this and cant figure it out.. for the rear i think either the parking break wasnt adjusted properly or the shoes are to close to the drum then they should be.. but dunno whuts causign the front to maek noise...any help will be thankfull ..

    the ticking noise is valves sticking, i had the same problem, u can fix it before you change your oil, put a bit of engine restorer in it, and after when you change your oil put oil stabilizer in it, the LUCAS oil stabilizer, it wont fix rite away so let the engine restorer run in the crankcase for about a couple days then when you change the oil add oil stabilizer into it., it would go away after about a week or so, its jus the valves have to lube up a bit

    or u can do a head or engine rebuild, what ever you have money for

      How loud is this ticking. Hondas are notorious for having valve tick. You can adjust your valves which will help a lil and decrease the sound of the ticking.

        The ticking noise isnt all that loud but not soft either... its inbetween (kind of sounds like gravel being thrown on metal) ... it like starts happening like lets say 5 min after the car starts running and continues even after i turn off the engine.

            aw thnx... so would you have any suggestions on what i can do to fix this?

            the car was in storage for 2 years and i started it and drove home from the storage. So is it possible that the old oil caused the vavles to get dirty and sticky?

                  as for the squealing, that might be your power steering pump. Mine went out on me when it started making a groaning noise...not exactly squealing but a noise nonetheless. Check the fluid in the reservoir before you tear into taking apart the pump, my Chilton manual says the fluid should be at the max line at all times.

                      how bad is this for your engine? The tapping. Just finished a valve adjustment and think I hear a little tapping...also, does tapping indicate the gap is to big or too small?

                        After a valve adjustment it will tap for a little till the valves settle in..it should go away.

                        And i see you have 215k on your motor...so the valve tap is very normal

                        As for the tap...every honda does it for the most part..ive never had any problems from it..its just a honda thing, dont freak out your motor isnt blowing up..thats what i thought when i heard it in my first prelude with an h23.

                          that's reassuring...I'll check again in a few weeks.
