Does your check engine light come on when you turn the key to "On"?

This will confirm your check engine light actually works.

circle22

Yes it does but that i find funny that it burnning rich n the light not coming on

typemismatch

So your check engine light works, that's good news at least.

These cars are OBD1, up to 96, the check engine light generally means that a sensor has stopped working completely. OBD2 cars have a check engine light that indicates when the engine isn't running right.

Just because the check engine light isn't on, doesn't mean everything is OK.

Have you checked that you actually have spark on all four cylinders?

Also, you can do a poor man's engine health/compression check. while the motor is running pull the plug wire off each plug in turn. Does pulling the wire off any cylinder affect the motor less than the others? If you pull a wire and it doesn't affect the way the motor runs, you have a weak or not firing cylinder.

Hey i did the injectors test no gas came out n yes i did the spark wire test n when i do that to each wire the car want to cut off

what ecu you running?

typemismatch

What modifications do you have done to your car?

circle22

I ont know wat ecu i have when look for the number it dont have any but i was told i can use a p72 ecu is this true?

typemismatch

A P72 will run your car, with a tune, you should have a P13.

circle22

Yea cuz ive done every thing u told me check for every thing is ok i also did the fuel it coming back at 40 psi do u think it could be the ecu dat my last thing to check? So u say i need a p13. The reason i ask bout the p72 is cuz boy has a gsr p72 already tuned wit hondata so wat think bout?

P. Hunter

remember that a bad air readings could cause your car to run rich tooo..

circle22

O ok ill look at the air lines also to check them

circle22

Hey guestion? I was driving on the highway n my vtec controler deprogram it self when i tune the car the cor is at -20 the throttle is at 0 and rpm at normal when i came to a stop cor was -7 and the throttle at 100 percent

P. Hunter

you said the car was stock.. what is really done to it?

typemismatch

I'm not giving you anymore ideas until you come clean on what is done to your car.

A VTEC controller is a garbage way of tuning your car, not to mention, you could easily have bad settings and bad wiring.

Yo im here for help not to play games my motor is stock be side my fuel rail n pressure regulator that all i have n when i got the car it had the vtec controller install already i didnt know how to program it so i took it to get done that all i have so i was trying to get help cuz im running to rich im get poor gas miles i dont know wat els to do

typemismatch

*Pulls out jibberish to English dictionary* ... nope, no translation possible ...

typemismatch

BTW ... fuel rail? fuel pressure regulator? not modified? bad gas mileage? running too rich??

Hmmmmmmm ... where to start looking ... ??

circle22

lisen bro i dont have any modification on the car .....this is my show car and ive have not been taking the car to car show cuz its getting poor gas mileage..... its running to rich .. wat u want me to lie to u bro sorry bro cant do that if i tell u its stock its stock

slammedbbs

i would look into the fuel pressure regulator for sure and maybe your vtech controller when is vtech set to engage ?

circle22

Question? i got the psi gage for the fuel rail.... Wat should dat be set at?

typemismatch

I think it should be around 40 psi.

I just don't understand how you could have problems with running rich and not mention that you have an aftermarket fuel rail, fuel pressure regulator, and VTEC controller ... seriously?

It didn't cross your mind that bumping up your fuel pressure might cause your car to run rich??

What about the VTEC controller? Is it a V-AFC? If so, the "AFC" part of that acronym is "AIR FUEL CONTROLLER", don't you think that's a mod worth mentioning, when you are having AIR FUEL RATIO PROBLEMS?? That is what "RICH" means, TOO MUCH FUEL in your AIR TO FUEL RATIO ...

Seriously man, I'm not really interested in tearing you apart, I'd rather see you get your car fixed and be happy. When you don't mention vital changes to the system you're having problems with, how do you expect people to help you?

Not to mention the ghetto TXT speak doesn't help your case, it makes you seem even more ignorant.
