Need help....B18c CRX
HI everyone,
I have a 90 CRX si with a B18c motor in it. After the swap, my car keep dies on me. Normally after about 10-15 mins driving, it dies "slowly". Slowly means it doesn't shut down right a way, but when i step on the gas padel there is no response. Sometimes I had to down shift and force the car going. After I force it going, there is always back fire. If my speed is too slow then, the car stop when the rpm reach 0.
If I try to start it back on. Sometimes it starts, but it die right after the motor started. Even I punch gas when I start the motor, sometimes the rpm drop even faster right after I start it. Sometimes it will start very slowly from 0-1000 rpm.
The motor will keep dieing at least three to four times after that happened. However, if I cool it down after a period of time then the motor seem like nothing happen.
I talk to my shop, they told me to change the MAP sensor, and the fuel pump. I did both of them but it is still happening. Can any of you kindly give my crx here a hand. Thanks.

is it throwing any codes? Did you do the swap or did a shop? Does you exhaust seem clogged up? I had a problem like that.

I did the swap in a shop, but they couldn't find out the problem either. I did change the main relay. The ecu is a real spoon, and I change it back to a stock B16a ECU but it is still doing the same thing. My exhuast has smoke coming out everyime when I punch it hard. The shop told me it is because I am running rich, so I still try to figure out what is happening.
Do you guys think it might be the disturbutor?? Thanks for the reply and please let me know what should I do now?
