I have a '95 civic with b18b. I just changed the thermostat to a hotter one for emissions reasons. Everything seemed to go fine but today i was driving it and it started to act like it was going to die. I would push the gas and it wouldn't want to go. I don't know if this could have anything to do with the thermostat or if it is just a coinsidence. Since i changed the thermostat i have driven it some with no problems. I searched on here and found some reasons it could be doing this but nothing relating to a thermostat.

I know this is a boring topic but any help would be appreciated

Well is the temp needle in the norm? Or is it high?

Does anybody know what could be the problem?

One last time...anybody know if hotter thermostat could cause car to drive really sluggish and act like it will die?

does not sound like a t-stat problem to me...car is not over heating so that is not your problem

Yea car isn't overheating so what would it be? The other night i let it idle for a couple min. and then drove it around the block and it didn't act up. The way it was acting though i know it is not a one time fluke. What do you think my problem is?
