What's up guys I'm having a problem with my car . I noticed it today after I was gettin on the interstate I was in 3rd gear tryin to get on and I stepped on the gas and my car jerked at around 5k rpms, can anyone help? I just changed the subframe and p/s rack
98 civic ex d16y8

 

any other mods like turbo? i know boost cut will do it once u go past 10psi on a stock map sensor. around 5k would be where Vtec is engauging... i would look into that

 

No turbo it's stock with headers and CAI that's about it

 

What kind of jerk? If it feels like your ignition cut out check your plugs, cap, rotor, timing, etc.

 

x2^

 

It jerked like if i let of the gas and the rpms dropped, but my foot was still on the gas. it scared the ish out of me cuz i didnt expect it

 

change the cap,rotor, wires, and plugs

 

Ok thanks a lot guys

 

Is your check engine light on ?

 

Yea but I already pulled codes and there is only one for my o2 sensor being thrown

 

Well a bad o2 can cause idle/rpms problems usally from dumping to much fuel fix the o2 first

 

Oo ok. But I never had that problem since I bought the car but I'll fix that soon
