that pretty much sums it up. I'll drive a little while, the CEL will come on and then its like I have to give at least twice as much gas to get going. Then sometime after that happens it wont start for a day or so.

I thought Id ask here before having someone check it out

D15b2

 

I have the same problem on my D15b6 except for the start up issue. Though it does struggle sometimes. Anyway I'm in for an answer.

 

well I changed out my fuel pump which has resolved the starting issue, but the CEL and hesitating issue is still there

 

Check the code?

 

^^ Dam, you beat me to it.

To the OP- Check the code: http://www.clubcivic.com/board/showthread.php?t=110204

 

 

not yet, I need someone with a scanner

duh I followed the link...thanks

 

Pretty much every parts store will scan it for you. Easiest to find is Autozone.

 

codes 7 and 16

fuel injector and throttle angle

now what???? Im lost

 

think it could be a grounding issue only cuz my radio cut out the other day

 

Duh, I'm an idiot. I was thinking wrong gen. You can check those codes yourself, sorry.

See if the injectors are working. If not clean or replace BOTH.

Check the TPS for a bad wire/connector. Also check the throttle plate in the throttlebody throat for looseness, whether it's catching anywhere, or has extensive buildup.

I believe the TPS is riveted in, the easiest way to replace it is to replace the whole throttlebody (they don't sell the TPS separate). I have seen a DIY in the forums for drilling and re-riveting the TPS though.

*It's still a good idea to inspect the grounds and harness (especially where it goes thru the firewall). After all, your car is 20 years old.

 

thanks for the advice. I'm starting first thing in the morning.

 

Not correct.

You can cut a slit in the bolt heads and remove the tps. Then just buy an aftermarket tps from omni power or BLOX. They can be found for as little as $25
