Problems:
Oil leaks
The 1987 Acura Legend with a V6 engine (C27A1) is known for developing oil leaks over time. This can be due to worn-out gaskets, seals, or oil pan issues.
Overheating
Older V6 engines, especially those in the Acura Legend, can suffer from overheating issues due to a failing thermostat, clogged radiator, or malfunctioning water pump.
Timing belt failure
The C27A1 engine uses a timing belt, which can wear out and fail if not replaced at the recommended intervals, leading to potential engine damage.
Valve cover gasket leaks
The rubber valve cover gaskets can harden and crack over time, causing oil to leak from the top of the engine.
Ignition system issues
The distributor, spark plugs, and ignition coils in the Acura Legend can wear out or fail, leading to misfires and poor engine performance.
Fuel injector problems
The fuel injectors can become clogged or fail, causing rough idling, poor acceleration, and decreased fuel efficiency.
Head gasket failure
As the vehicle ages, the head gasket can fail, leading to coolant leaks, overheating, and potential engine damage.
