i was going to redline it an my engine stoped at 7000 rpms instead of 8000, why is that ???? it did it in first an then 2nd gear an then i stoped an did it again but it was fine the second time(8000rpms redline) this is on my crx jdm b16 thanks for help

 

was the motor still cold?

 

i used it to go to work an then after an then it sat for like 3 hours an then thats when i got in it an used it an it happened

 

let your car warm up completly then try again. sounds like the cold rev limiter to me...

 

its fine now it was fine the second time i tried it so it was the cold rev limiter then???

 

good job beating up your motor when its not fully warmed up there buddy.


use your noggin.


i have the feeling, that you didnt warm up your noodle before reading an english book either. because your **** isnt firing on all cylinders.

 

what a dick, the car had been running since morning, and this happend at noon so im pretty sure it was warmed up!!!

 

he can be a slight dick, but he is an extremely knowledgeable honda enthusiast who many around here have learned great info from. I would take that info and run, consider what he said and move on. if ur car sat three hours like you said, then no it wasnt warm all the way no matter what ur little guage said.

edit: he probably means that you forget the "d" in AND, some people appreciate proper word usage, since that is a completely different word. Internet slang/abbreviation is okay, but it has to mean the word you are intending to use. Just a thought

no, it's a little bit more than that. but, that's a start.


if it WAS fully warmed up, my second guess would be oil pressure.

 

sometimes it feels like its laging it an then the power just bumps back on why would that be??? this happens in low rpms like from 3rpms an up,(when im driving normal)any clue what it could be or is that from the oil presure too?

 

when was the last time you did an oil change? what is the oil level at?

 

the oil change was done about 2000 miles ago an the level is right were its suppose to be, i changed the spark plugs yesterday.

 

my respects to "STREETWERKZ" he knows what he is talking about

when did you check the oil level?


have you checked the spool valve screen in the vtec solenoid?

 

the last time i checked the oil was yesterday an it was full, should i check the spool screan on the vtec silenoid even do it lags it before hiting vtec? dont you think its probably something else or both?

 

everything you check and fix would be beneficial. dont just assume the screen is clean.

 

okay were exactly is it? an what does it look like? im not familiar with it bro?

 

you've never seen a vtec solenoid? take it off, replace the screen/gasket.

ummm so you're saying it's not possible to get cold after 3-4 hrs because it was noon? umm yes it is possible

 

streetwerkz is a feg haha no proper english here

but on a serious note i'm going to agree with him and say it wasn't fully warmed up. you said it sat for three hours.
