first swap, can't get running correctly.
Hello, The engine start and runs. So i put the timing light on it, and its pretty perfect, but when I hit the gas, it bogs down and then get right back to the same idle. So I then put my timing light on it and watch it. And it seems like when I give it gas, the timing line on the crank moves forward, but then it moves back into correct timing, I'm extremely stumped. If anyone can give me any idea, to what to check, Let me know, Thanks

^^^YES
According to the 1994 Civic FSM, pressure should be 40-47psi with the vacuum hose disconnected from the FPR and 31-38psi with the hose connected.
I'm not sure about the newer Ds, but it shouldn't be much different.
