I'm not accustomed to Accord configurations but I know that I can count on you guys/gals here.

So here it goes:
My girl has a 94 Accord LX Wagon..... yes a wagon

.... dang... and I love it! It's not modified. Completely stock and I intend to keep it that way unless she tells me to turbo it and I'll be more than happy to make it happen

. A CEL has been on for a while now and she was told that it was the O2 sensor. I'm okay with that, but I just dont trust the person who diagnosed the code. I want to do it myself. My question is, where is the ECU located on these cars? Does it have the same blue clip where I can tamper with to count the CEL blink like on civics and tegs? If so, where is it?

Another issue is the alternator/ps belt squeaking like crazy sometimes. The belt feels loose. Where do I adjust the tension on this belt? I can figure it out by looking at it but it's too freaking cold outside. A picture would definitely help if possible. The moderators, since a few of them drives an accord, should jump in on this matter. Anybody else's inputs will be appreciated on my behalf. Thanks.....

well my 92 has the same blue clip on it that is used on all other hondas (not the integra for some reason) and it;s the same codes as any other obd1 honda.

Stef, where's the clip located at?

You probably have that same clip thing..
Accords xx-->1995 = obd1
Clip should be around the fuse area.. But I'm not sure so wait for stef's reply.

Re-diagnosing it is a good idea, cause a few accords of that year are starting to have emissions related problems.. Actually the fuel return.

And the o2 sensor going bad often comes with other symptoms.. Symptoms, which you, the turbo man, know much better than I.

between the dash and the passanger kick panel. you might have to reach in there with your fingers and pull it out

edit: i'd wait for trev because he has a 94 accord. i know my accord has a problem with fuel too. dumps way too much fuel, flooding the "cylindaz"

hmmm, so the location is the same as my Teg and Civic. The clip shold be blue right?

How about my question regarding the belt tensioner...
