i have a 96 honda civic 1.6 vtech and when i start it up the rpms go straight to 2000 and does not idle down i changed the tps bc before it would got from 500 to 100 and up and down so i changed that and it stopped doing that but it idles high, it has no vacuum leaks, and if im driving in any gear when i give the gas it cuts out every now in then and bogs way down and in 5th gear it has no power what so ever any ideas on what could be causing this i can upload a video if that helps

 

Did you calibrate the TPS? If so, did you reset the ECU afterward?

Any CEL codes?

 

i just pput the tps on and adjusted it and what are cel codes and how do i reset the ecu by un hooking the battery ?

 

How did you adjust it?

Click the CEL sticky at the top of the forum.

 

ok i know wat cel is my bad i just put it on there and left the bolts snug and moved it as needed i need to get my oms meeter and check the wires i was looking on the fuel rail and there is a round thing with a clear cap on it where the main gas line bolts on i popped the cover off and a screw fell out that had a small o ring on it idk what that is ?

 

the screw in this piece was not in there would that cause it to cut out it has an o ring on there and i put it in there and tightened it up and it don't seem to cut out now but ill check it out tomorrow i have a link to a video so you can see what the idle does if i move it to where it quits doing the pulsating then its way to high
also the V-tech solenoid was un hooked for some reason

here is the link

if i loosen that screw a bit and push in on it with the screw driver the throttle response gets way better is that the fuel pressure regulator or ?
