ok so i had a check engine light for a lone time that threw code 6(ECT sensor)... i replaced the sensor a couple times, and the plug on it because the wires were snipped, but the CEL didnt go away, so the other day i tried getting the code again to show a friend, and whenever i put in the paper clip to the jumer thing the CEL just goes away, and doestn throw a code...any ideas on what could it be? another thing i noticed is that its not engaging vtec because the motor really struggles to get to at least 7k rpm's

things to know: OBD-1, stock P28ecu, D16z6

thanks in advance.

 

anyone?
bump.

 

2nd bump... anyone? any help?

 

Have you reset your ECU?
If it has a CEL, but throws no more code, it would seem it just needs reset.

Damn, that was my only other guess......and I didnt mention it b/c I figured you had thought of that (looks like I guessed right)

Well good luck man, I'll definitely be watching this for my own knowledge in the future, and you can get a free bump!
