When i travel long distances, my prelude with h22 swap will start to have a very touchy gas pedal. There will be no smoothness in the transition from no gas, to hitting gas. Same with the gas to no gas. When i stop, the car will buck because the rpms do a kind of rev limit thing. If i shut the car off and start it back up again, the problem goes away? any ideas what it could be?

 

I tend to get something similar, Im thinking could it be the intake issue? I have AEM short ram?

 

Check your throttle cable and make sure it's not binding

 

checked all that bro .

 

clean your throttle body. Check your spark plugs for wear. And check yourself to make sure your driving it right

 

could be an oil metering pump.

 

All of that done, and don't worry about my driving LOL .

But....

oil metering pump.???

oh crap. hahahah lmao...I was thinking of a rotary engine. My FC did the EXACT same thing. It was teh oil metering pump acting up. sry bro

 

lol I was like what the...

 

i'd have to guess its a fuel-related problem. so when you start off it operates correctly then the longer you drive it the worse it gets, yet when you shut it off and turn it back on it is working properly again. well the only thing that would change when you restart the engine would be the fuel trims. restarting it wont change anything else..so thats what i would check first.

 

o thanks i'll check some of that stuff. Do u think that it could be because of my MSD SCI-L box? I'm gunna take it off cuz its making my car sputter when i get past 4K rpms at full throttle.

 

From what you said, sounds like you are reffering to Fuel Pressure Regulator.
