Gen 2 JDM B16A dead spot
UPDATE: Checked ignition timing and it was off. Set it correctly and the B16 runs perfect with no dead spot.
My B16A acts strange sometimes. It has kind of a dead or weak spot when accelerating from about 2900rpm up. It usually happens in 3rd, 4th and 5th gear, and I think I simply don't notice it in 1st and 2nd because it revs so quick. Like I said, it doesn't happen every time I drive it, sometimes it'll go weeks with no problem. Makes me think it's something electrical as opposed to a vacuum leak or a lean spot. It is bone stock except for a real cold air intake box and the original WS exhaust system. It runs nice (minus the dead spot) and somehow gets 36+/- mpg (no lie).

Re: Gen 2 JDM B16A dead spot (95dxsir2)
do you have a leak ? like what i mean is, i have a leak from my header to my downpipe and it causes a power loss when im at those same rpms in those same gears. IDK just a guess
