ive already bought a fuel pump, map sensor, fuel filter, fuel pump stainer, disributor cap, and a ignition rotor the only thing left is the spark plugs and wires which i just replaced not that ling ago
ive posted a small video of the way the car is trippen i know its shity but the video is from my phone.
notice how the light is only on while the car is bogging. it feels in between running out of gas and redlining but only happens when i first take off mostly during 1st and 2nd gears sometimes in 3rd, when i turn, and when i go over bumps or shity roads... ideas anyone? well heres the video

could one of these little bitches be my problem igniter or coil??
in the pix it only shows the igniter

 

thats the problem right there in the picture that little square piece in the bottom of the rotor that 3 or 4 wires that connect to it take that off and take it to go get checked at an autozone they will tell u if its good or not thats the ignition control module thats was the problem with my car and i just but a new one and it ran good

 

just got it checked they said it was good so i bought one any ways lets find out before i install it are those the exact same problems you were having? please say yes cause i cant return this once i try it on the car

I would get my hands on another distributor... maybe a friend has one you could barrow. Put it on and if the car doesn't do that anymore than it is something in the distributor for sure. But if the that doesn't solve your problem then you know it's else where, that way you don't waste your money on a part you can't return and that won't fix your problem(if that is the problem anyway).
What light is coming on when this happens? It was hard for me to tell. I'll try to think more about this.

well 1st off thanks for your reply i just replaced the coil, igniter, (both in the distributor) distributor cap, rotor, wires, fuel pump and stainer, fuel filter,and the map sensor problem still there i don't know what the expletive else to do do you really think the distributor could be "it"? oh yea when the engine is bogging the ecu flashes as many times as the engine boggs like bam bam bam bam then the ecu stops flashing and the check engine light goes away leaving no codes to render..
ill try to post a better video

 

Hey man,
You either have a loose wire or possibly your ecu is messed up somehow. Again try to find a friend or someone with an ECU you can barrow and plug it in and see if that helps. The reason I think this is because the light comes on but no code is thrown. Try to get a better video too.
Later, Davey

 

have you check your timing? but with no codes maybe it your ecu

 

i just put a different distributor same problem still there i guess the last thing would be the ecu, have you ever heard of a tps causing this kind of problem

 

okay this is my list of everything ive done the last 2 days
1.fuel filter
2.distributor cap & rotor
3.map sensor
4. fuel pump & strainer
5.igniter & coil pack
6.spark plug wires
7. whole new distributor
8.ECU
now with that list and for the problem to still be there what else am i left to do?
please someone help im loosing my freaking mind while my pockets are turning inside out heres another shitty video from my phone the 1st part is the ecu and then the second my check engine light i know its hard to see anything is just the car keeps moving all over the place cause of the bogging and the shitty road

today i check the fuel injectors they were dirty so i cleaned them and put injector cleaner guess what problem still there

 

Man, this problem is very weird. I hate to say it, but since you've pretty much wasted so much of your time and money... you may as well just take it to a good shop and have them figure this thing out. Maybe they've seen this type of problem before. I hate giving up on something and just taking it to a shop, but damn I don't know what to tell ya. Let us know what happens.
Lates, Davey

 

thanks for your reply i actualy have an appointment at a shop for next tuesday ill keep it posted
