anyone care to shed some light on this subject long story short

top my car out in 5th gear at 9500rpm doing 150mph+
my distributor took a crap due to the rotor bolt getting loose and moving around in there bent all the terminals inside complete deformed rotor...bolt got sandwich between two terminals on the ignitor...blew out a fuse and crack the ignitor.... spun all my bearings in the process

replace all the bearings car runs like a champ beside the rpm signal once i hit 6500 it shoots all the way to zero and all over the place...but car still pulling smoothly...i just like to know what rpm i am at therefore...

so i went head and replace the dizzy shaft new msd cap and rotor...
i am running an external SS blaster

any idea whats wrong with it?

 

EG,EK,DC?

CHECK YOUR O2,VSS,ALT WIRES THEY COULD HAVE SHORTED

 

its '01 Acura Integra Type R DC2... sorry to sound like a newb how do you go upon checking these wires....i am gonna put my friend '01 GSR dizzy on my car later today gonna see how that goes....if doesn't change anything i swear i am clueless

It is none of those wires...... they have nothing to do with the RPM signal.... look on your distributor and look for the RPM signal wire. I want to say its a pink wire but im not 100% sure right off the top of my head... but follow that wire and make sure there is nothing wrong with it.... it could also be the distributor itself, try your friends and see what happens it only takes a few mins to trade them out

 

i will keep everyone informed thats helping me out...thanks my friend was busy today...haven't got to it yet....i am gonna get an ohm meter and test each wire to see the resistance as soon as i learn how to use it another friend of mine was suppose to help me do that never called back either....after this problem fixed i got another problem to resolve....so many electrical problem

 

at one time my tach was doing the same thing. you may want to have the igniter looked at to see if it is bad. once i had put a new igniter in it was fine after that.


good luck

 

i tried that already. third ignitor...replace SS coil blaster replace spark plug wires...coil blaster wires....the shaft inside the distributor...its driving me insane

 

have you replaced the whole distributor? or tried another one that is working on another car?

where all the parts new or used that you replaced everything with?

 

Its the ignitor- thats the ONLY thing that sends the RPM signal to the tach.

Are you using OEM ignitors? MSD? Advance Auto? If they are OEM are they new? or used?

 

coil blaster new, cap new, rotor new...msd parts.....ignitor used...from 2 other dizzy i tried that i knew were running...

had my friend with an 01 gsr come over today...swap his dizzy car rev pass 6500 like a champ...

so i thought i fried my coil blaster positive and negative wires so i then replaced it with slightly thicker gauge wire...and took the car for a spin rpms agains disappear i am just gonna purchase a dizzy and convert it for msd tired of dealing with the dizzy problem

thanks to everyone that took the time to help me out greatly appreciated
