Low Idle.....MIL Codeskeep comeing back.....Sometimes wont start......PLEASE HELP!!!!!
HONDA-TECH MASTERS,
i have a buddy with a 97 cx hatch BONE STOCK,
-problem started on and off here and there but now.......
-Has very poor idle and sometimes dies.....sometimes does not start on first crank.
-CIL come on right after being reset.
-Has new Ignitor and coil
-also vehicle is up-to-date on all maintenece(plugs, wires, cap, rotor, fuel filter, battery)
-throws cel codes p0301-p0304, p1300, and p1399 (all mean in some way mis-fire i know this already) except p1399 can not be found on the honda-tech codes list (searched elsewhere and found it to be Manfacurer Contrl. Ignition System or Misfire)
-engine has never been apart, timing belt was recently checked for tension(ok)

do what i did: my civic was idling pretty low too and cel came on so i took it to a honda dealership near my house... i or any of my buddies couldn't figure it out (and we checked everything) so i didn't mind paying $128 for diognostics. well, honda checked it out and it came up being a faulty 02 sensor. turns out honda made a deal regarding smog emissions and they had to do a required tune-up on 96-97 civics with mileage in between 75k-150k. new 02 sensor, distributer, plugs, wires, oil, and filter and even a wash and a vacuum. tell ur buddy to check with his local honda dealership cause the whole service was free (diognostics was waived bc it was smog related).
