Re: D16Z6 Sputtering in VTEC

Did the ohm and volt testing, everything came out good. Moving to resetting the dissy with a timing light. If it doesn't fix it, then I'm going to replace the ign control mod.

Re: D16Z6 Sputtering in VTEC

Thank you for that! Will test those out. I'm going to check valve lash as well, and see if any need adjusting, and also reset the ignition timing on the dizzy. We'll see how that goes and go from...

Re: D16Z6 Sputtering in VTEC

Oil level is right at full. Only ran about 1500 miles since last change. I'm thinking it maybe the wires, but not sure.

Re: D16Z6 Random Misfire

No power loss, will still get up and go. And yeah, idle is fine other than the backfiring or missing, which ever it is.

Re: Engine Codes Coming Up

I think I may have figured out the problem. I've been searching like crazy trying to find out what is going on. I've been reading that the vacuum lines could be bad, so I went out and looked around...

Re: iac valve questions

I'm having the same problems with my d16z6 in my del Sol. I think my IAVC is bad, but I did clean the fast idle thermo-valve (FITV) and it was dirty. It's located on the bottom of your throttle body....

Re: Wheel websites? (sorry if this has been covered a million times)

If you're looking to keep a clean JDM look, search Rota in google and go to their website. They have a lot of clean 15" & 16" inch rims.

Re: tinted my tailights (pic inside)

Looks good there man.

The best way to tint your light is to sand down your lights first, then take some clear coat, add 4 or 5 drops of just black into a small batch, and clear coat your lights....

Re: D16Z6 Idle Surge at Start

And yes, there is a CEL present, but it's because of the 02 sensor which I'm having replaced today along with a new header.

Re: D16Z6 Idle Surge at Start

Ok, so now I've cleaned and put back on the FITV and the IACV and still doing the same thing. But when it seems like it warms up or whatever, it kicks something on or off and idles fine at 850 RPM....

Re: del sol exhaust question

I don't think you're going to find a DOHC VTEC exhaust for a del Sol under $200. If you do, you're lucky. But yeah, any exhaust that say DOHC VTEC will fit with the B18. I did the same a couple of...
