Ive recently started noticing that my car is bogging below 4K RPM. Even in 1st or 2nd, there seems to be no power until about after 5K RPM. Vtec seems to be kicking in hard still but the low end power that used to be there is gone. I dunno if this has anything to do with it but my car seems to idle above 1k RPM. probably 1100 RPM at normal temp to be exact. Also I am getting horrible gas millage. on a full tank of gas of 94, I am only getting about 320ish km/s a tank and that babying the car! I don't have a CEL on.

Anyone know what could be causing this?

 

loosen the dizzy and clock it clockwise just tad, like a 1/4 inch then tighten it back up. see if this helps.

 

do i have to reset the ECU after i do that? also should i be expecting anything different?

 

I would do a compression test and a leakdown on the engine and see if there are any issues there first, then start with the easy things like, a fuel filter, when was it last changed? Any other Major Mods to the engine?

 

I would do something about the high idle. When was the last any type of tune up has been done? Check spark plugs, spark plug wires, dizzy, dizzy cap, ignition coil, and etc.

 

It recently had a compression test. I dont know the numbers but it was the same across all 4 cylinders. My engine is healthy, no burning oil or any smoke. Only mods are bolt-ons. Only thing that has not been changed yet is the fuel filter. im going to take a look at that.

 

I recently just GOT the swap probably in January. Ill check all those again. Im debating if i should just wait till winter is done or fix everything now before storing her.

 

my buddy had the exact issuse with his crx...turned out to be the o2 sensor not hooked up check er out
