Ok so heres the deal...I got a 91 si and it has its good and bad days. The problem is its missing USUALLY right when I throw it into the next gear. This is obviously at low rpms, however it also happen when im in mid gear. Actually it seems to be whenever I hit the throttle more excessively. When I say its "missing", its enough to jerk your head forward. Im at college and dont have time to check everything so I'm wondering if anyone can give any insight on what could be going wrong. I was thinking my timing could be off, or to change plugs and wires. Help please!

 

EDIT it is now doing this rite after i shift into every gear one time...any1?

 

uh huh

 

Did you check your codes? CEL on? Have you bothered to even do a tune up lately? I bet you new plugs, wires, cap and rotor would liven the thing up a good bit. Have you timed the car? Have you ran some injector cleaner in the car lately? You can't be upset when a 16 year old car starts to run a little rough.


There is alot YOU can do before posting 3 times in a row...

 

no actually theres NOT a lot I can do, im at skool and have no tools or a place to do anything until I get home so either I ask the oh so helpful hondatech community if they have ever had these problems and maybe have a simple fix or I take it to a mechanic n pay money that I dont have.

 

It sound like it could be the dizzy but its hard to say. Your best to take the dizzy off and take the cap off, make sure all the conectors are tight and the give it a light spray with wd40 and hopefully that should cure it.

 

i was thinkin it prolly has 2 do wit that thanx 4 the input
