Hey guys, very weird problem, i just got done with my h22a swap when my h23 snapped the timing belt, now the problem is it has abnormal idle but whenever i try to drive it it has no power at all, i tried to drive and it takes 10-15 seconds to get out of 1st gear and so on, timing is correct and vacuum lines are all correct. i switched my h23 fuel rail but kept the h22 injectors but i didnt switch out my fuel regulator i dunno if that could have anything to do with its performance. But it has no acceleration at all. Any help would be great guys i need to get this beast runnin

 

lol are you running a p14(h23 ecu) ??? thats your prob right there... if your running a p13( h22 ecu) check your vacuum lines or something y ou gotta look farther into it

 

no it is the p13 and i ran the pressure switch and solenoid for vtec, I have all vacuum right i have a diagram and there all correct.

 

?

 

are you using the h22a fuel injector or the h23? if you using the h23 that could be the problem. also try another Ecu. check if timing is correct, if timing is not correct then that could be the problem.

 

not to jump on you or sound like a know it all, but when i did my swap i tried switching injectors and i doubt its the problem...when i did my h23 to h22 swap the ecu (p13) i had was faulty...but still ran... anyways long story short i tried a p13 i knew that worked and threw it in a car ran great! then i kicked it up a notch by buying my friends p28 and it ran better! hah anyways try a diff p13 or p28 you know for sure that works and try that...

 

i would agree to try a different ecu, and just double or triple check the timing. my friend has a d16z6 civic and it seemed like it had no power at all and when she swapped in a different ecu it made a world of difference

 

hey guys, ya i switched my fuel rails but kept the h22 injectors but i have thought it might be the ecu too so thanks a lot guys im gonna do that, if you have any other thoughts just throw them on here if you would. Thanks
