Um yeah so I rebuilt the head before I went to Nopi this year and put a new headgasket on. The car was running great and pullin really strong! Well on the way back from Nopi, I was doin 80mph and I downed to 4th, hit vtec and at some point ( I forget now) my car felt like it had hit rev limiter. I immediately pushed the clutch in and the car revved back up. But instantly I noticed power loss. The cars been driving fine (still with power loss) for the past week, but again today I went to push again, and it happened. This time in 4th gear at about 6,000RPM. Once again, it felt like a more harsh rev limit. Clutched it again and instant rev, the car runs fine...But what the hell could this crap be? HELP!

try checking the timing again

Em1Rookie

you mean my timing belt? or should I mess with my distributor cap?

turbociviccoupe

is your timing makes still on the crank and cam...is your timing belt loose?

Em1Rookie

my timing belt may be a little loose. I'll have to check, yeah the marks SHOULD still be there...

turbociviccoupe

it probably jumped timing

Em1Rookie

what do you mean jumped timing? Like jumped a tooth cause the belt's not tight enough?

That's what he means, although I don't think it's the t-belt. Your descript isn't the best so I'm not sure what it is, though I don't think it's the timing belt. Oh well, anyways, yes, that's what he meant.
