Default bogging...WOW help!

ive did searches and it seems like people are sorta having the same problem but i cant seem to get any help form them, its like i have bad gas, but ive refilled my tank like 4 times since it started, at frist it would do it at about a quarter of a tank till i filled her up agin then it would sorta stop, but now it jsut seems worse, when i drive it and its "driving normal"it still feels like im not getting all my motor power. when its bad, il come outta first and it will sound ok then just bog down, and sound kinda like im still going fast but im not going anywhere, like its not getting gas, but still making the sound. it does this almost every gear when its bad.....sorry this is prolly really hard to amke since to yourself but please try, ill help out as much as i can to solve this problem.

Years ago when I owned a FI Chevy it would bog like that every 3-6 months. I would then put fuel intector cleaner in it to fix it. I have never had that problem with a Honda but it would be something cheap to try.

I've been battling a similar issue recently. I have an Iceman intake that I have been running in the short ram configuration, and after driving more than about 15 minutes, the car seems to lose power. After adding the extension into the fender, I havent had a problem, except on the really humid days. So if you have the same problem I do, the issue may be related to high under hood and intake temps( I also have a header which doesn't help). Hope this helps narrow down your problem

I think knock sensor will throw your car into limp mode, which retards the timing. Fix your CEL's.

Knock sensor is on the back of the block with one wire coming off of it. take the water temp sensor back off till you can get a new one
