I got a 92 eg sedan b20b swap that bogs while accelerating no cels

It started while I was racing a gsr swapped eg hatch We did it from a 60 roll and then as I was pulling away it started bogging as of it was running out of gas it was at a quarter tank (never let it get that low before) so I figured maybe the gass gauge is off got gas (93 octane) and it was fine to drive to a friends house then on the way home it started bogging again, it randomly does it sometimes it will got all day w/o doing it sometimes 5 mins down the road it bogs, the only to stop the bogging is if You go WOT on it or push clutch n rev it a little...

I've changed the fuel filter, cleaned and sanded down the trans ground and thermostat housing ground, checked timing, checked spark plugs

Any help will b appreciated thanks

 

Bump any help? Also te car back fires after it starts to bog it also is running off a LS ecu. That's how all my friend was runnin his b20z

 

Check your ignition and cam timing

 

alright ill c if i can borrow my friends timing light n get back to you

 

check timing, check a/f mixture. i think your going thru what im going thru. you tune might be too rich (aka fuel heavy) my car bogs till vtec (at which point it burns all the extra gas)

 

retuning might be the solution

 

Why is your tune too rich? That's what dynos are for. Sounds like timing could be off for the OP so I don't think you two are experiencing the same things.

 

my tune was rich because i had a bad gasket and couldnt complete the tune, i only did one pass on the dyno. (now i replaced it and will retune next friday!)

 

Put new plugs in my car and it was fine for the night then this mon started it again anyway the old plugs looked like the car was fine but the insulator on the spark plug was red? Any1 know what from and by insulator I'm talking about the white part. And timing is on any other suggestions.


A friend behind me said when it started doing it it smelt like a lot of raw fuel

 

May wanna try running a different ecu, just to rule that out. Did you get the fuel filter for that year civic? I'm not 100%, but you might want to try one for the 92 si, i think different models run different filters. Not real sure if it would matter, but ya never know.

 

Yeah I got the fuel filter for my car and think I will try a new ecu.... People were saying could n a bad tps in other forums

 

Here's your first problem, KIDD. You were street racing. Cut that **** out.

Check your timing, and get your car properly and professionally tuned.
