ok i just finished installing a H22a engine in my lude right ... i put the coolant and everything .. engine shakes .... anyone know whats going on ?? idles right .. below 1 .. around 800 ...

 

any ideas?

 

How are the motor mounts? Good shape?

 

yeah everything is in good shape ... these motor mounts i got were new ... so .. any other suggestions ?

 

Does it smoke? if it does what color, does it only do this at idle, does it rev up ok, does it drive ok.

 

i know this sounds stupid but do you have your external map sensor hooked up?

 

wen i drive it .. it shakes .... the idle is cool .. the eternal map sensors .. hmm ima check on it .. thanks guys ....

 

Could be a good old valve bent from over reving....Just a thought..Mine would run fine till i hit 800rpm then lump,lump,lump. Just an idea..

 

thanks ... i check everyting and it stills shakes .. any more suggestions ?

 

you're sure the motor mounts are secured properly, just because they're new doesn't meant they're not secured well

 

did you use the energy suspension motor mount inserts?

 

after my swap, my engine shook too, it may even want to stall a little, check out the coolant system, air in the system will trick the ect sensor and the computer will add more gas and reduce gas according to sensor temp reading. in other words, bleed the system, it's a real bitch with the h22a's so be patient.

 

THANKS GUYS ... you guys were a lot of help ... ill keep it updated .... right on guys

 

If it only happens when its in gear then you might wanna have the clutch re-aligned

 

First, check to see if it's throwin any codes. Then come back and tell us the results.

 

check for vacuum leaks, they will definately cause the engine to run rough. usually an easy fix if you find a leak

there is a bleeder for it by the thermostat housing, to check for a vacume leak get a mister bottle and spray the hoses, if you notice it bogs down that is the area of the leak
