This is from previous post... my civic wont rev up past 3500. I read the codes ... and this is what came up.


21 - VTEC spool solenoid valve
10 - intake air temperature sensor
4 - crank position sensor
3 - manifold absolute pressure sensor

Which of these stops my car going past 3500 RPMS?

Or it could be dizzy or the ECU?

 

Bump

 

Are you positive everything is wired correctly?

A bad manifold absolute pressure sensor (MAP) and crank position sensor (CKP) will make it run like hell. (The CKP is in the dizzy, I have been told that Honda now sells them w/o having to but the entire dist.)

Test all the sensors in question (or get them tested, and replace if needed), check the wiring too.

Bad VTEC spool solenoid valve? A B16A sucks w/o VTEC, trust me.

 

Well, someone also said that bad dist. can cause that kind of crap too. IAT needs to be replaced because we tested that and ... not working. Im not sure how can we test the other 4. I'm not even sure where some of them are.

It can be fixed, especially if it just the electronics that are faulty.

Which ones?

 

4 - crank position sensor
3 - manifold absolute pressure sensor

 

Well you never guess...

Last three drives since the last night, been perfect..after a hard cough it started running fine.


Wonder what is REALLY up...
