Default So whats up with my car?!

I posted before, about how my ecu was giving me a code 16 which means fuel injectors. But now i replaced em, and it still gives me the same codes, and same problems. Cold engine turns on fine, warmed up wont turn on. I give up! The main relay clicks so its ok, i hear my fuel pump priming, and i have a new fuel filter im about to put on....Now the ecu gives a code 7 so when we put the new throttle body on i guess we messed something up on the throttle sensor. Anyone have ANY ideas? Im bout to pay the 70 dollars to get it put on a machine through a dealer.

I would guess it wasn't even the injectors from the start but the wiring to the injectors. And this isn't just based on the fact you already replaced them. I have spent so much time and money looking for the worst possible condition, only to find out it is the most simple condition. Once I replaced the battery and alternator all because a ****** wire had a short. I would check your wiring. BTW what setup are you running? P28 stock D series?

yea the car is stock engine. Right now i dont have the best power. ONe cuz my throttle position sensor is a bit off, and second because i cant even drive in 2nd gear from a take off. Usually im sure u can, but i have to go from first TO second and so forth. If i try to drive from 2nd the car just bogs down horribly to the point where it wants to shut off. We disconnected all the hoses off the throttle body and there seemed to be plenty of fuel, but maybe not ENOUGH?

dont' try to start in second unless your moving a little bit, or about to go downhill

a motor with more power will pull out in second or a truck thats gear'd low, but not a good idea to try it in your civic
