Default at 70mph and at 4000 rpm car will stutter a little, why?? HELP!?!?!?!?!?!?!

ok just like it says my car only does this when i am low on gas and when im on the highway and i am going about 65 to 75 mph and my foot stays in one spot on the gas, and it feels like there is a huge gust of wind blocking it from going cause it starts to slow down but the rpms are the same and when i step on the gas all the way it does a tiny little jerk and then im off and everything is ok, it seems like it only happens when i leave my car at the same speed and same rpm for a long time. could it be throttle body getting stuck or fuel injectors, help.

Doesn't sound like that big of a deal......

but my guess is o2 sensor. Mine had similar problem.

and keep her full of gas when possible

well it is kind of a big deal to me cause THAT IS NOT HOW A CAR SHOULD RUN someone told me it might be my throttle body sensor motor thingy could that be it cause he said it could some times get stuck in the sam spot i dont really know what that meant though.

since the car is low on gas, maybe the fuel pump is pumping air instead of gas?

I had an odd stuttering sort of mis-fire deal going on for a while at certain RPMs in the band, turned out the Injector Resistor box was on it's last legs with old age.

Who to trust? That's a difficult one. Don't go to huge places or shitty little places, or most import only places. There's bound to be a shop in your area with an outstanding reputation for work and customer service. Ask around for who they are and go to them.

What I would do is take the car in for a free diagnostic to find out what the problem is. Come back here and tell us, then we'll help you fix it.

OBD1 does not have a resistor box!!! about your question of where you can get a resistor box i have 3 in stock if you want to buy one for $15+shipping depending on your location let me know. unless you want to upgrade to OBD1 injectors you wont need the box.

is there any advantage to go to obd 1 injectors other than not having to worry about the resistor box failing?

you can show me the one on the civic because arent we talking about an EF ? anyhow civic obd1 did not have a resistor box, and no i dont need you to show me a picture of an accord resistor box since i dont like accords and i dont think i will ever buy one.


OBD1 is good if your planing on upgrading your whole OBD0 - OBD1 best tuning options
