So when i take off in first. I can feel the pull real strong, then it gets up to 4500 and i dont feel any power, almost like its gonna slow down if i dont shift, I cant hear the engine and the rpms growing but thats about it.
ive got a d16y8 head with a y7 block and a si and ecu
Could it be because that computer thinks it redlining at 5000?
or could it be that i have stock headers with cat-back.
Could it be because my car sometimes idles at 650 and sometimes 500?
Could it be because my cam pulley's "up" sign is at 10 o'clock?
Or could it be that when i was seafoaming the vacuum tubes (brake booster)
i Foulded my spark plugs and need?

Your help is greatly appreciated!!!!!!!

 

slipping clutch maybe? but you said it pulls real good until then hmmm

that might do it.

 

check the plugs, that happens almost all the time, and its not like it costs anything to check

 

how do you check the plugs, what do i look for

 

anybody

 

set ur cam timing to 0?

 

from the distributor?

 

You check the plugs by just pulling one out and looking at it, see what the condition is and might as well check the gap while your at it.

 

are you running obd1 or are you still pre obd?

 

pre obd

and these spark plugs are farely new probably 2000 miles, theyre the bosch 2 plus pregapped

 

ok than it is your ecu most likely cause there is no vtec ecu.

 

what if i take my pm6 and chip it with this muegen chip i have.

 

no-you gotta run the vtec lines and all that ****,you could use a b16 ecu

 

would that be ok being the engine is sohc and the ecu is for dohc

 

it will make it run rich-you should just spend about 300-400$ and get a full obd1 setup....dizzy-harness-p28
