ok so i drive an ej1 and i threw cel 9 a month ago so i replaced the distributor. which fixed the issue with the cel. but now when i start the car and either hit the gas a lil bit or reverse it a lil bit it wants to die it drops to like a couple hundred rpms and everything dims down like its gonna die then catches itself and hops back up in the rpms.

and sometimes when it does this it will actually die and when i go to start it back up it takes awhile for it to actually start up and sounds like it is running on 2 or 3 cylinders and it will finally work itself out of this.

is it the distributor or what????

 

check all ur plugs/wires would be your cheapest bet

 

done changed plugs wires are fine they are ngk blues that arent even a year old. the weird thing is it only does this when it is cold...

Yes, they're not even a year old, therefore they MUST NOT have ANY part of the problem, right?

 

ummm i have done inspected them if i had any problems with them then i would of said hey guys i thinks my wires are bad

and if there was a problem with them the problem would be consistent and not just when the engine is cold

 

ttt for any other suggestions
