I have a 97 Accord. I had just cranked up and was pulling out of my lot when I heard this blowing sound, just of air leaving something, which seemed to come from the engine. I don't think its the tires b/c their not flat. What does it sound like it could be? What should I look for?

or just this one time.??

it must be the nitrous purge control solenoid vacuum line

When I used to drive a 98 Civic I had the same thing happen. Hondas from those years are notorious for getting small cracks in the exhaust manifold. That was the reason the problem our car had was upon first start up, the manifold would heat up and expand sealing the crack.
