i currently own a 2000 honda civic vti - ek4 - b16a2 loving the car to bits but the problem im experiecing is a flat spot between 1000 rpm-3000 rpm , its very VERY flat off the line ,up hills , it only happen when u put you're foot down about 1/4 way of the distance of the pedal , u can actualy feel the just jump back into life after the 3000rpm mark , a tps sensor or map sensor perhaps , has anyone experienced this problem , PLEASE HELP i keep getting left behind at the light ..!!!!

 

it's called not having any torque

 

my ls swap is doing the same thing right now, can't put a finger on it. My immediate thought was that it was fuel related so I purchased a new fuel filter, and ran some injector cleaner through it, but it's still there. Not sure. So I'm IN for this.

 

well im in england , london and over here thats what we call it , TORQUE , lOl ,

 

b18b1 - ive had a new fuel filter , spark plugs , ht leads , msd rotor i run it shell optimax and have also various fuel cleaning products but still have no luck , its only slight flat spot , i can really feel it real bad at about 2700rpm 3000rpm anything after that it's fine


and for the IDIOT , im in london - england ,thats what we call it , TORQUE lOL .. GO AND SUCK DUDE ..!!!!!y%$

 

tune up maybe

 

i alos have the same problem but i have no clue what it is

 

The problem is having a B16A. They're gutless.

 

check your timing, my distributor was retarded all the way when I purchased my car and ran like it was dead untill 3500rpm then it came to life. Then I adjusted it and it ran 10x better.

 

yea i know the b16's are quite gutless downlow ,

i have checked the timing twice , all timing marks line up perfectly , marks on the camshaft pulleys line up and so does the crank pulley , i mean if the timing was out , the car would not run very nice and u WOULD know if the timing was out , i personaly dont think the timing is out , its just hesitating down low ..! a TPS or MAP sensor mayB ...?
