Slow acceleration off first gear
So my car just got a engine with about 98k in it. before when it had the other engine i use to step all the way down on the accelerator and it would make the tires chirp a little and then accelerate fast. now it doesn't do that. When i press my foot all the way down the engine sounds as if im in a gear to high for the speed i am going at. it does this for a couple seconds and then it accelerates. what could this be?

A riddle?
Maybe your car had a B18C5 in it before and now it has a D15B7. Could that be it?

Re: Slow acceleration off first gear
wasnt sure what year, since the engine was pulled and a lot of stuff disturbed, it's probably a matter of getting everything adjusted again is all

Re: Slow acceleration off first gear
My car idles fine though. And it turns on right after the engine turns over twice just like every other civic out there. Should I still try this?
