I saw this somewhere.

Lets eat, Grandma!

Punctuation saves lives.

But seriously, this is going to be really hard to diagnose over the internet. I would take it straight to a certified Honda/Acura mechanic. It sounds like you have more than one problem with all the noises,idling issues, and black smoke...Good luck!

i have a ? what if i put a b16 head on my gsr block???? would that be a good thing?????

dpacheco

yea bro if yo are running with no CAT you are going to make the world black. is your car BAR'd?

95skunkedgsr

is that a trick ?

ekcid97

what does BAR'd mean.... dont hate new to the game...

civicfd2

BAR'd means is the engine match up with the car in other words if you do a engine change youmust bar the new engine to the car it involes takeing the car to CHP AND a smog check also running no cat in your car will make black smoke becouse your Oxygen sensor is reading bad and will tell the ECU WRONG which in turn is makeing your car run Rich

civicfd2

Also i would not run a B16 head on a gsr engine you will loose power One more thing is your Idle problame is most likely a vacume leak on you intake manifold to find a leak spray WD40 on the manifold while the car is running and if you see any bubbles theres your leak

ekcid97

thanks man, yea my car does run rich. i wanna get a cat back but if i did wouldent i loss power????

ekcid97

thanks,yea im stickin with my gsr head,cuz like this morning i started ,y car and the idle was at like 2000 then i revvved it a lil and it droped to like 900 then like 1200 then back down ect. then it jus stayed at 900

ekcid97
