So I put oil in my 1994 Acura legend get down the road the oil light starts blinking car dies so I wait five min restart it to try to make it to parking lot but starts acting funny loosing compression until died again it restarted but I'm not chancing it so what does all this mean do I have a blown motor or just a head gasket

the IMMO is bad
scan it, next if all fuse are good
the scan tool tell you why IMMO is not happy with DTC errors
is suggestion was dead on.
He is not CAR ASE tech, he is a locksmith.

I have 94 s 10..4.3 v6. it does the same thing have replaced fuel pump and filter,ignition module,cap rotor plugs wires,coil,ground strap...driving down the road jus dies like the key got shut off....for a while when troubleshooting through the parts you could get it to restart.....now when it dies it cranks really hard when trying to restart..ive checked the timeing its fine....if i wait a few min it will usually start...sometimes it will show a check engine light sometimes not......never know when it will happen sometimes jus down the the road from the house sometimes 100miles down the road......sometimes three times in a mile sometimes not for weeks at a time..Wtf...Im ready to shoot it like a lame horse....its a shame too its a sharp lil truck thats a two owner and never spent a night outside in its life...i knew the original owner ...i bought it with 90,000 on it it only has 148,000 now and still looks like new...

When my D4 light started blinking means VSS (Vehicle Speed Sensor) or Trans wrong: DIY Transmission Service (Filter + Drain)

Hope helps.

yes replace battery the computer cant work on a dead battery ..

replace battery & have alternator checked . computor cant work on dead battery but alternator may be the problem.

When it dies does it take enough time to restart as if it needed to cool down for maybe 15minutes or so? the problem sounds most like your starting to have a pgmf-i main relay go bad.Its located on drivers side up behind lower kick panel. its a dealer only part but any acura dealer will have several in stock.

IT IS LOCATED BEHIND THE GLOVEBOX. JUMP THE CONNECTOR AND COUNT THE FLASHES OF THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. HOPE THIS HELPS, LET ME KNOW. BEST OF LUCK TO YOU.

you need the electrical part of the ignition switch this is a common problem on this model.

do the cooling fans work? when does it get hot? running down the road or sitting in traffic, as much information as poss please.

i have a 1994 acura ledgend but i dont have the owners manuel that holds the code. how can i bypass or get it to work
