ok well, ive done many many swaps before yet this one seems to be plagued with problems.

to the point: car is running idle is really rough and it sounds like car is miss firing i have -- Checked timing numerous times, plug order. it started off you start it and it would die..due to the o2 sensor somehow. lol. unplugged o2 sensor. at idle fp is at 35 psi which is stock for b18 if can remember right. since i thought it was getting not enough fuel. and tps sensor keeps throwing a code at random times..going to clean it soon to fix that issue but. it seems like the car has no power and you floor it ..a geo metro could pull me start to finish. lol. i personally think cap/rotor could need a change...just wanting to know before i dump more pointless money into this car.

thanks.

-- its not that just changed rotor/cap and wires.

check ur valve and ignition timing....

Also check to make sure all the grounds are connectted properly... and after that confirm that all the vaccum lines are connected properly also.

 

nope and nope, even added more grounds.

 

anyone else? =/ oh and the cars idle sounds like a lopy drag car.

 

Im pretty sure that the TBs are the same, but on my b16, when i rebuilt it, I accidently switched these two vacuum hoses around. They are right next to each other and it made my car run like total *** burgers.

But to me, it kinda sounds like a problem with a sensor not being plugged in or vacuum.

 

well just incase anyone else stumbles upon this, it was the tps sensor (who knows why or how)
