car:95 cx
swap:b16a
I swapped cams(compcamstg2), header(vibrant) and a intake/tb(skunk2) onto my car. Car ran fine beforehand. Now when i start the car up, it idles fine and when you go try to rev it or WOT it, it boggs down and will die. There is a certain position you can hold the throttle and it'll rev up fine up to 6500+, no misses etc... No CEL's, Timing is dead on. HELLLLP, i need my **** dyno tuned!!


i swapped out cap, rotor button, and tried another distributor to no avail...

Will drop some cash for solution!!!!!

Kovatch EG

also currently running hondata s200 on a b16 base map...

Syndacate

Double check ur Hondata, sounds like a problem with that..I would suggest wires/plugs but then you'd probably have breakup under heavy acceleration, not just "dying"

Kovatch EG

tried plugs, next on my list is wires...

any CEL, sounds like the TPS and map are swapped, but its hard to say. more info needed.

so still no luck huh brian. so you replaced everything but the wires? try that out. and what exactly is it doing? is it misfiring like it was when you left on friday still? or did it get better? hope you can get it together let me know if you need to reschedule.

Kovatch EG

it stopped missing after i got to covington pike, then it was back to running real weak, well i tried a number of different things and now it runs worse... it idles but when you try to rev it dies down, i tried putting the stock TB back on it, with no improvement... how much would it cost for me to leave it in your hands?

Kovatch EG

no cels!!!!

schardbody

check the map sensor anyways, make sure its getting vacuum. so its a load thing??? like you can ease it up but cant mash it.

Kovatch EG

can't really ease into it... There is a certain position(just barely touching it) you can hold the throttle and it'll rev up some...

Sounds to me like your map in the ecu. What i would do is run your stock cams til you get to the dyno and then put your other cams on when you get on the dyno.

But incase if it doesnt work when your back on stock answer these for me.

In idle can you rev your car without any problems or does it die out right away?

What is your BTDC at and where is the hondata one at?

Does it happen when its cold, warm, hot, 2 mins after you start ther car, right when you start the car, etc? When does it start to happen.

Kovatch EG

Stock cams are gone...

at idle if you blip the throttle or wot it, it bogs down really bad and will die if you dont release it.

Whats BTDC?

Happens ALL the time... cold hot etc...

Luserkid

BTDC timing. Stands for Bottom Top Dead Center or something ::shrugs:: anyway its what you use a timing gun on. With the cams should have came a instruction paper to say what timing you need. Check that.

I think you messed up putting the TPS on, like its off a little, try resetting the TPS.

Something is really wrong though. Even though you think timing is dead on, do it again. Try to get your hands on some stock cams, just to see whats up.
