I have a 95 turbo civic with a d16z6, and over the past few days it has been idleing wierd. When i come up to a stop and put it in neutral the rpm drops to 0 almost stalls and then fluctuates between 250-600. Today i was driving and I decelerated in second and then gave it gas again and it started jerking really bad and wouldn't let me accelerate unless i punched it. What is wrong with my car? Thanks for any help.

sounds like a bad tune. what is ur setup?

 

x2. what kinda fuel mang. are you running if its and fmu then that could be your problem. i had the same thing till i started running crome.

 

my setup is Turbonetics T3 turbo, intercooled, holley fuel pump, pro charger fuel management unit.

 

What ECU do you have? How much boost? Sounds like a bad tune. Run crome.

 

well your first problem is that FMU.. its really hurting you..

Get a real source of tuning.. Chipped p28 with some sort of program. id also recommend upgrading your injectors

Now go do a comrepssion and leakdown test to be sure there is really no internal damage. But the bad idle could be issued with a failing Map or TPS sensor.

 

i'm running only 6psi and i guess shes going in the shop in the morning

 

not to hate, but waht's a civiv?

 

well that was hating but now its fixed. so is it possible to go to a normal shop to check out the problem cause there are only a few shops that deal with turbos around me and they are booked full. Is there a chance its a simple problem?

Civic.

 

Just wondering but when I do take it to get tuned or take it to the shop, could I be causing damage by driving it?

Just moved my car into the garage and it is running terribly. Sounds like a v8!

 

does it do it when its cold? or just when the engine is warmed up?

 

when its warmed up, but it runs rough when its cold.

 

bump for answer

when was the last time you change the plugs?
whata bout your cap and rotor?

 

Well I don't really know..got the car a month ago, but the guy said he cleaned them often so they might be a bit worn out for the plugs.

ill second this. honda's go through caps/rotors/ plugs like changing underwear


replace that stuff. and also check your plug wires make sure they are in good condition.

 

tune up then tune.

also check it over for a vccume line that may be dissonected

 

if it sounds like a subaru, then a cylinder or more arent firing....

 

Okay so i found something interesting out today... My car runs perfect if i let it warm up before i leave. let it run for a couple minutes and it doesn't to anything wrong but i get it let it run for 30 seconds it does it.. wierd

 

check your oxygen sensor man. tha's what it sounds like to me if it's not those other issues. I bet it's the O2
