DC5Teggy

Hi, I was on this forum back in 2006-2009 back when I had a 1998 Acura Type R #525, well now i have a daily 05' Type S.
I have a question if i can get a lead or an answer i will appreciate it so much guys.

My master cylinder for the clutch gave out so We swapped out the master cylinder, Slave cylinder and new ACT 6 Puck clutch with new pressure place but resurfaced the flywheel. Everything went smooth, it grabs hard. Now i noticed my DC5 has little torque, it lags so much when i give it some gas and one yesterday I gave it a good run all the way to 4th gear but it has no pull at all.
What can be happening? I changed out the green Knock sensor for a new one and the Throttle body sensor also. The car is completely stock!!!
when i first got the car 4 months ago it was quick and picked up when i punched it. I figure now with a better clutch it would grab better.

What did we miss? all sensors are on, no check engine lights. I need help guys!!

Something's not right. Either not hooked up or hooked up wrong.

I drove it this morning and it felt a bit more powerful, a guy told me that maybe it needs to be broken in for 200 miles and it should be good to go but i don't know, we did it right I'm sure of it.

Is thd clutch slipping? If not, check your timing. If someone spun the motor counterclockwise while you were doing the work, you may have skipped timing.

Clutches do need to be broken in...but that's not your issue. Maybe if the master cylinder isnt adjusted properly, it's slipping. Does your pedal have freeplay? Did you use the corrrect grease? Was your rear main seal leaking oil?

Unrelated...but install a clutch bypass switch to start the car. Never leave the clutch down at a light or for excessive time. Just push the clutch to shift...don't unnecessarily push the pedal. K series engines with ACT clutches are a known combination for crank walk/bearing failure.

your problem has nothing to do with the clutch.
