hey as some of you know i blew my ls/vtec up last month due to oil pump failure, well i got a new bottom end, rebuilt the bottom end and now when i start it it idles at 2k, it runs fine for a while but after a bit the engine starts acting like it's starving on fuel. when i rev it up it hits 3-3.5k rpm then it acts like it hit a rev limiter and if i let it sit the car will just die. any ideas at all????

 

are you throwing cel's? (I'm betting no.1)

 

im thinking distributor

 

yes i'm throwing a cel, wont have a code reader till tommorow, it's unlikely the distributor because it's brand new but then again ya never know, also if it's a "code 1" what does that mean

alright well today i went and bought a new fuel filter, put that on and also the ground wires for the ecu (i believe) that are by the thermostat were not grounded, so i cleaned up the spot where they go and hooked them up, car seems to be running good but now i need a alternator...never ends

 

Im curious, were you using the LS pump when it blew?

 

i think i know exactly what's happening LOL.

check if you have the sensors switched around.. like map and tps , knock and some other ****.. make sure everything is connected to the right spot
