Any one have a code 4 they cant get rid of? New honda dizzy, checked the wiring, rywire harness. I got a tuning appointment in 8 days and i may have to cancel...

 

Has anyone had problems with the jdm ef8 sir clear corners fitting? It says they will only fit with jdm bumpers...

 

they look like **** with usdm headlgihts, they fit but dont flow with the lines

 

Thanks! Looks like I'm on the hunt for some jdm headlights. haha

Anybody got a set for sale.

 

It has to be something wrong with the distributor...unless it's doing it with the old one which never threw the code...Some wiring may have come loose on your jumper maybe?

 

It did it with both, I dont have a jump, i have a rywire complete harness. the pins hwere loose so i swapped the clip on the the harness side and htey are tight now and still get the code.

 

^^ My biggest nightmare... Gremlins

 

Me too, if i cant figure this out, i think im going to part out.

 

I had a deep 14mm socket and it wouldnt' even touch the bolt head. It got stuck on the mount and on the firewall. I'm goin to try a small 14mm today with a swivle socket and see if i can get to it. BTW, I removed my fuel filter and the sensors on the firewall to get better access along with the heater valve. Still no good.

I was thinking a regular socket would work because its smaller. I might just have to pick up a wobble extension as they look promising. That or pick up a 1/4" set of sockets with swivel and extension and try it that way.

 

TRY this..... 1/4 inch short socket... put the socket onto the bolt first... either by getting under the car or even use a magnet and drop it on... then take a long 1/4 extension and pop it in... you may need 2 extensions.

a wobble extension may help also... if your not familiar with a wobble tip its a little more rounded out than a normal extension tip.. it allows for that slight degree of play to get in that extra tight spot. a swivel may be too much wobble for that spot.

 

Don't do that!!

 

Im going to, i cant find answers im tired of working 12 hours days in the lab and then working to 3am on my car to back here at 8am

 

just imagine driving the car ***** out with no worries that its going to blow. that day will come soon enough...

 

Maybe the tuners can get rid of the code?? Im no troubleshooting guy. lol Just throwin that out there.

 

No this code is important, in the datalogging you can see the rpms shoot up to 7800 and back down to 1300 3 times (while idleing) the motor doesnt know where it is. Im going to bypass my harness and run two new wires into the ecu, other htan that i cant thing of anyhting

 

loose pins in your rywire harness? Duly noted.

 

For whats it worth i cant entirely blame him. I sent him the plugs so it was my plug, his crimp job was mint, it just my plugs wouldn't hold the pins properly.

 

That's how sh*t gets started man...

edit: On another note, NO ONE WANTS MY CLEAN '88 DX so f*** it...I'm going to keep it and park it in the garage. I'll probably start building it for my pops.
