it tries to start but it seems like there is resistance or fatigue on the engine. and it backfires flames out of the intake manifold. what is wrong with my car?!??!?!

 

There is a zinging noise coming from either the tps sensor or the iac on the back of the intake manifold. and when i turn the key off it goes away. would could this mean

 

Your going to have to give us more deatails. For starters, what motor is it? Is there anything done to it? Stock?? It is a swap? Did this just start happening?

 

just get a new swap.. they go for cheap

 

Sounds like your timing is off for one.

spark plugs in the right order? Valves closing all the way.

Check timing and do a compression test

 

its a stock d15b7. no mods. i cant get it just to start. freekin A. i alligned all the marks and did the timing and it didnt start. so i tried over 10 ways of timing(pulled the timing belt and adjusted the cam and the crank) and it still wont start. it just shoots fireballs out of the throttle body, i havent even put a intake on it yet.

 

wow... spitting fire from throttle body.... that something i never seen before...

 

ya your tellin me lol. so what does this mean??? i might just take it to a local shop and have them f.u.c.k with it. but i dont wanna do that unless i absoleutly have to

 

Firing order is probably off.

 

1-3-4-2 is correct correct me if im wrong

 

You sure your plug wires are in order?

 

ya i have them as 1342

 

Heres what your firing order should be. Check to make sure its right.

 

check your dizzy rotor.. when i baught my crx with a b16 swap it wouldnt start. backfired in the throttle body.. turned out the dizzy was loose.. got the car w/ swap extremely cheap

Is the firing order the same for the non-VTEc D15B7 he has? I honetsly don't know. It's been so long since I've seen a D15B7, seriously.

Yes 99% of most honda's follow this order there the flat part of the distributor is up and the round is bottom.

 

Not all Honda distributor shafts are indexed the same, your timing is off, set number one to TDC Compression stroke and make sure the rotor is pointing to #1 in the dizzy cap. I had one like yours and the rotor was busted loose from the dizzy shaft firing to the wrong plug.

The intake valve is open still receiving the air fuel mixture when the plug fires and flames travel back out the valve through the intake and throttle body.

 

your motor could be blown, happen to a friend of mine took the head off and haha sure enough!

Sounds like your cam/valve timing is off. Check timing belt for skipped teeth. If not, the firing order is not correct.

 

had a similar problem one time and there was water in the dizzy for some reason.

 

ima check right now and its almost one in the morning. lol
