i had a b16a3... and about 110,000 miles it started losing power then finally my distributor went out... so got a new distributor... out back in time.. and then it stuttered til vtec and when it went into vtec it would haul ***... and i just had gsr cams installed too! now i have a jdm b16a sir-II and its missing a knock sensor that i need but it still stutters til vtec but not as bad and i can only run vtec til 7500 rpms and it cuts out! anybody know what the hell the problem is?!!!!!!


Alright.. i now have a JDM b16.. running a p30 on a p30 motor... no gsr cams installed on the new motor... but im missing a knock sensor b.c hmotors is being an ***! has a new fuel filter... new distributor... cap.. rotor button.. plugs.. wires.. but i still cant figure it out!!!!????? and its running obd1

isn't p30 obdI ecu. It doesn't require KS, doesn't it? I might be wrong, don't deal with b series alot. And why are you putting GSR cams inside a b16, you know that b16 cams are better then GSR ones right? Check your oil pressure, maybe it drops off so bad that you just can't keep vtec on. Clean the vtec passages.

wrong, p30 looks for a KS, b16 cams are not better then GSR, then again GSR cams are'nt that great

did you adjust the dist. correctly when installing it? timming might be slightly off, and if the KS is not there it will run like crap.

yep p30 is obd1 and yea it has a KS weird!?! i know! but i guess to check to oil pressure i need an oil pressure guage! but i just wanna know why its stuttering b/c its kinda pissing me off!!!!! and another thing is... sometimes it floods itself or i have to give it gas to start??? im just lost on whats wrong with the p.o.s

oh yeah if it does look for KS then it's prolly running rich as hell. Your computer thinks that KS is either broken or missing, so it throws the everything into a limp mode. Therefore running rich to protect from detonation. Maybe your car is still in vtec but it just running so rich that the top end just drops off. But then it could still be vtec just turning off posibly because of lack of oil pressure.
