I have a 1990 integra. After about 20 minutes of driving, it seems like it doesn't want to accelerate in 1st & 2nd gear. Is there anyway to fix this?

theres always a way to fix damn near anything, just depends on how much you're willing to put into it to fix it.

check your cam and ignition timing. make sure your cam gears are lined up properly, sometimes they will slip and be off a tooth on the timing belt. i'd recommend picking up a timing light, and two 5mm pin punches.

Here's an article that gives an idea on what I'm talking about. See the first pic:
Timing belt installation procedures on 1994-2001 Acura B18 Series engines - Engine Builder Magazine

And heres a link for some pin punches: (these will make replacing a timing belt a lot easier, BTW)

So how did you fix your problem?

OP making threads like this asking for help then replying i fixed it and not saying what you did makes no sense! This helps others to not make the same thread and flood the forums.
