I was accelerating hard through a gravel parking lot, then a complete loss of power and the car cut off.  It tried to start back up but immediately died.  Then some clear fluid starting leaking under the car from below the passengers seat.  It didn't have a smell too it so I am lost for ideas and what the problem may be.

I've heard of some pretty disgusting things but an Accord taking a crap on someone is new to me.  :laugh:


That being said, the only clear fluid with now smell that would come from the passenger set/ floorboard area that I know of is a/c condensation. I'm wondering if your car went into some sort of a limp mode. I'm also wondering if a reset of the ecu would remedy the problem at all.

My AC stalled my car before. The fan froze and the engine just shut off. I was able to get it back on though.

so i am feeling kind of stupid. how do i reset the ecu? just disconnect the battery and ecu fuse?

Just the battery should be fine. You have to leave it disconnected at least 30 minutes to wipe whatever memory that isn't hard coded into it, ie. codes, faults, etc.

I got a low idle code before from my a/c and car has gone into limp mode then stall pulling the battery off has fix the issue and over time a tune up solved it

So I went to tow the car back with a uhaul trailer.  I took my laptop to check for any codes and to erase the ecu.  I reloaded the tune crossed my fingers and to my surprise it started right up.  seems my ecu didnt like the bumpy gravel parking lot.  drove it back and drove just fine on the half hour trip back.  Ill give it a good looking over once I get it into the garage but she seems to be fine now.

Glad to hear it runs. Sometimes that stuff can be a bit scary with a built motor.

yea, thats why i decide to take my laptop with me when i went to pick it up.  thanks to everyone on their input.
