Hey I got a 95 honda civic si with a 95 gsr engine. When I go lets say start with first gear then second and then like fourth and floor it then the car like jerks like tooo much gas is going in the engine and not enough rpm. so basically when I am on low low rpm and floor it the car like jerks or like not shakes but its hard to explain Is that normal or something wrong got 107k in the engine

 

Throwing any codes? Does it jerk if your in any other gear and floor it? Have you checked your motor mounts?

 

do you have an adjustable fuel pressure regulator? maybe your pressure is too high

 

If the fp was set too high it wouldn't only happen in 4th.

 

well you know.... I dont have any code and yes it does happen in every gear Or could it be something do with the exhaust system because I still have the 1.5 or 1.6 stock 95si exhaust so.............

 

well if your in 4thgear at around 1.5k rpm the motor will not have enough torque to immediately pull you in yor seat instead it will jerk and sputter until it reaches max torque and horsepower.

 

so is that normal?????

 

when your in to high of a gear the car will shutter.


the shaved trim doesnt look bad on your car. atleast you kept the handles

 

i think you have to explain your symtpoms just a smidgen better, its hard enough to diagnose problems over a computer.. and perhaps invest in hooked on phoenics

Its normal! If your in too high of a gear, yeah, your cars gonna feel like it wants to die

 

your ignition timing could be off a little. my car was doing that when i first put my motor in. but i had the wrong distributer anyways. have someone put a timing light on it
