well i dont know about all that



is anybody going to help me figure out my problem or are you guy's just going to talk about crack

 

we'll when you had it tuned you should have done a tune before just to make sure everything is up to snuff. what engine management are you running?

 

it's just a simple street tune.....im running hondata rigged to chrome

 

we'll have you cleaned your vtec screen? checked your plugs? oil?

 

well my plugs are new just changed my oil my car runs perfect but

[QUOTE=nicks-eg6]we'll have you cleaned your vtec screen/QUOTE]

interesting how would i do that....

 

you know where your vtec solenoid is... unplug the wires. unscrew the three bolts holding it down. pull it off. then you will see the screen sitting in a little puddle of oil. pop it out and clean it off. then just reverse the process and try and see if that didnt help.
what performance parts do you have on your car?

alrite ill do that tomorow just wipe it off or clean it off with somthing???

just bolt ons

 

yeah. just use a clean rag or towel.

 

alrite....is there anything else i can do

 

look into to your fuel/ air mix to make sure your not running to lean or rich.

 

Here I got a couple of things for you buddy.

Checking if you are running rich or lean the Honda way:

Take out the spark plugs, clean them off real good, put them back in.

Take your car out, put it in third gear, go from 2000 rpm to redline.

Immediatly shut off your car and look at each of the spark plugs.

Dark resude is running rich


Light resude is running lean

Clean is the shizznet.
----------------------------------------------------------
Change your spark plug wires, your spark plugs, and cap and rotor to dizzy aka tune up. Check your timing.
----------------------------------------------------------
Any CELs?
----------------------------------------------------------
Take your vtec solenoid, ground the vtec pressure switch. Then retune or rechip it to the same map but dis engage the vtec pressure switch- that fixed my problem which was the same.
---------------------------------------------------------
Fuel filter, fuel pump, injectors....do fuel system cleaning if all else fails. Go to your local jiffy lube ask for a cash deal late at night, most likely they will say yes and charge u like 40 bucks cash to do a cleaning instead of 100. TRUST ME i know this works.
--------------------------------------------------------
PS if u changed ur intake many after the tune, that is the problem ur A/F mixture is off.
-------------------------------------------------------

Honestly, I think it will be fuel filter, or spark plugs. but check it all. Do this all and let me know what is up and I will have u try more if that fails. Much luck!!!

 

well in know im running rich

the fuel filter is new and so are the spark plugs but ill change them and see if it still happens....so you think i should claen out my fuel system

 

Yeah if ur running rich alot of shyt will build up in there, do this, clean it and tune it within 24 hours. that should fix ur problem and give u more power.

 

so clean out my vtec solenoid and my fuel system

 

And re-tune immediatly, then try the rest.

yea, try that stock ecu, if that works then for sure its your tunned ecu, other wise its engine related.

Dont matter. You are running rich, ur tune sux ****. Point and fact not gonna bs u about it. Your tune is ur A/F mixture, the A/F mixture is off, your tune is ****. Clean the fuel system before u retune or u may end up wit the same problem. Do this u will not regret it.
