My 1993 Accord periodically acts as if it doesn't want to move when the accelerator is being pressed. I assume that the car's computer is sending some sort of warning, because when this problem happens the "D" or drive gear indicator on the dashboard flashes. I thought maybe the transmission was low on fluid, but when I checked the level all is well. What could possibly be going wrong with the car?

Try the above link for retrieval of codes. Count the blink of the D4 light instead of the MIL.
