Noises problem
1995 Honda Civic 180,00 miles

I have a 95 honda civic. recently I've noticed a slight whistling sound from the front of the car. and I've also noticed that my car shakes slightly when turned on. also, it has a little bit of trouble accelerating ( it feels like its doing a lot of work just to accelerate a little bit). What do you think the problem is?

Everything, minus the whistling sound, sounds like you have an engine mis-fire. Most likely you will have to perform a tune-up on the vehicle. (ignition cap, rotor, spark plugs, wires, fuel filter, pcv, etc)

The whistling sound could be a vacuum leak (which could also cause a mis-fire) Although, vacuum leaks are not very common on your vehicle, however it is still possible.
