search you'll find a million things on bogging engines. if none of that helps, post what you've tried and alternate advice can be given. but you need to eliminate the basic things, such as sensors, connections, distributer related issues, etc.

Re: 93 HONDA DEL SOL BOGGS!!!!! (obuhmyuh)
well there is a check engine light. and when i did the paperclip thing it threw code 7...which is throttle position sensor. if there is a bad tps, could that be the reason why it boggs?

did you check the tps plug. mine came loose after working on my fuel rail and caused me to bogg like hell, just plugged it back in all the way and it was fine.

i had this same problem WITH A CODE 7, and I replaced the TPS and it worked fine. TPS is on the back of your TB, but don't get it, or its wires criss-crossed with the MAP sensor.

dont use caps lock when you post something please.
yes, it is urgent but it does not make anybody want to reply to your post any quicker. that said. the tps is on the back of your throttle body, and as said it has the same plug as the MAP sensor and there is one more plug near the throttle body that will fit.
so before you go tearing anything apart i would suggest searching and finding the wire colors that correspond with each sensor. so that way you know everything is plugged up in the right spot. (double check even if you are sure they are in the right spot, because they are very easily mixed up)
with that done, if it is still throwing a code your could have a bad throttle position sensor. these are not made to be taken off. they are screwed in but the screw heads have no where to put a screwdriver in, so to get this off you must take a dremel or something similar and cut a groove in the screwhead to unscrew the tps.

Re: 93 HONDA DEL SOL BOGGS!!!!! (egcivic)
i replaced the tps, well actually the whole throttle. it still didnt help. it still boggs and threw the same code. so is it bad wires? i dont know. I replaced the distributor and the bogging got better..it seem the car has a lil more power. and doesnt bogg as much...but it still boggs a lil. how do i check which plug goes to the map sensor and which one goes with the tps?

Re: 93 HONDA DEL SOL BOGGS!!!!! (beaver619)
well the plugs are correctly in the right sensor. what can be the reason why my car is still throwing code 7 even though its replaced? i had a problem with my car it wouldnt start then i replaced the distrib and it worked with a lil bogg. after driving around a while the bogg got worst. is it cause my distrib going bad again? i dont think so. after replacing the distrib the bogg got better again. but theres still a lil sutter. wat the fucc can it be.

i replaced mine once and that wasn't it, i went on for another week or so and replaced it again. haven't had a prob since. btw tps is the blu wire with a red stripe, not to be confused with the MAP.

Re: 93 HONDA DEL SOL BOGGS!!!!! (obuhmyuh)
the thing is..when i unplugg the tps and drive the car..it gets 5 times worster and the ecl stays on. so that means the tps is working correct..other thing i did was adjust my fast idle valve. and that just made the car idle really high..

not neccesarily, if the TPS is receiving the wrong voltage it just wouldn't work properly, unplugging it disables it overall. Have you tried ajusting the TPS unit as well?

try adjusting the idle adjustment screw on the TB, and maybe cleaning ur IACV

you need a voltmeter, and you loosen the two retaining screws on the back of the TPS, if you look at the TPS you can see the holes are kind of oval to allow for you to spin it... and you probe the middle wire red/blue and there should be about 4.5 volts. dont quote me on that, look through a haynes/helms to get the right numbers, or theres a thread and pdiggitydogg posted the right info if you search for it.
