here is my situation.. if i full throttle and the rpm goes pass 5k, right after that it starts jumping like crazy back and forth... the cluster is a jdm itr cluster, motor is a b20vtec, and i'm using a obd2a distributor (98 gsr)... i swapped out the jdm rpm, km's, fuel, and what not with the usdm stuff.. also the distributor, i noticed that the blue wire is there and missing from the engine harness.. the motor does not have a crank sensor and i am running a jumper 0bd2b-obd1. i'm not sure what the problem is. can it be the cluster or the distributor due to the missing blue wire on (i believe) all 00-01 integra.. i don't know if any of you guys have this problem or experienced this.. any input is greatly appreciated.. thanks

 

PM'ed you.

 

Your problem is in your obd2b to obd1 jumper.
You need to contact whom ever you bought the harness from and get a "modified" version of the jumper specifically for your tach issues.

 

had a problem like that on my crx it was the dizzy .. hope this helps

 

did you change out the green film on the back of the cluster? try that, if you haven't.

 

Your distributor may be giving out....

very good chance...as this just happend to me... mine would jump around spratically from time to time (at least 2 times a week) did this for about a month & a half. Until one night while driving on the freeway, i lost power for a second or two doing 65mph, power came right back...so i exited, put some city mileage on, and couldn't find anything wrong underhood, after driving around for another couple hours, it started to cut in and out alot and finally gave out on me, ended up being the coil in the distributor.

that's the same thing that is happening to the car.. i would cruise and all of a sudden the car would just lose power and slow down and pick back up.. and i used the 2001 integra green film in the back of the cluster as well.. thanks for the input..


the speedo works fine.. car drives fine but just the RPM jumps back and forth.. like crazy back and forth.. power is fine but i think it might be something with the missiog blue wire on the engine harness that connects to the distributor..

 

^ I had the same problem, turned out to be TPS.

Crazy like this?

 

^^^Bwahahahaha, but no really it's the dizzy.

 

thanks guys.. will do that first thing in the morning

 

whats this 'green film' you all speak of?

 

it's that green thingy that's behind the cluster.. it connects all the lights and guages for it to work

 

hello i have the same sort of problem and was wounderin if u all could help. i have a b18c5 in a civic coupe dx and it ran perfect untill i decided to change the cams. so after i change the cams it tries to hit vtec but it cuts off like a fuel or spark cut off, not a rev limit. it just looses power. also my non aftermaket rpm gauge is going crazy it will somtimes just go crazy and shot throu all the rpm ranges. i have compression checked it and adjusted the valves and tuned it a little. but i was woundering if anyone had any ideas. thanks a lot.

 

i had the same problem and i swapped distributors and it went away. hope it does the same to you.

 

we should start a support group...
hi im colin, and my TACH hates me.


seriously mine does the same damn thing. what part for DIZZY should i buy? im using a OBD2b to obd2a kingmotorsports jumper but when i use an obd2b ecu it does the same thing jus less. the RPM goes crazy then dies at zero.

 

I'm Fang... my TACH doen't like me when i abuse it..


my problem seems to be a lot of people's problem as well.. so we must band together as itr brothers and find a cure.. ARE YOU WITH ME!...

 

solution? swap motors.
i actually tried to solve this problem by buying a new chassis harness from a junkyard pulling dash etc and it didnt solve it.

 

dizzy...

 

type r#1141 how did u fix yours.
it might be the distributor, but it never did this before i change the cams. idont no
HELP

 

its your ignition control module.. i had the same problem with my car 95 coupe with a 97typer motor with obd2 dizzy.. (dont even ask i didnt do the swap).. i swapped the icm out and it was all good

 

where is that @? obd2 DC2 harnesses plug right into EG harnesses. and vice versa. OBD1 p28 harnesses plug into OBD2 dc2s

 

i am running a msd igniton with an external coil.
so do u think the msd is bad. ?
