Default PLEASE HELP b18c1 i really cant figure it out maybe you can :(

So basically im having this problem where the car idles horrible it runs super rich and shuts off when its decently warmed up and it just chokes it self and dies, also under 50% throttle it doesnt really like to move it just sputters and bogs ive replaced some things that have helped it but not that much. so i replaced many things, tps (which is calibrated), idle air control valve, o2 sensor (which i didnt wire that well), wires and plugs (the guy sold me b18c5 wires and plugs i dont know why there would be a difference), fuel filter/pump,

Fuel, comp., spark, timing is what you need.

Have, you checked fuel pressure, what is it?
Have you checked for spark, how is it, weak/strong?
Have you done a comp. test, what are the numbers?
Have you checked timing, both elec. and mech.?

Also have you checked for vac. leaks? 94

Use an HEI spark tester.... https://www.amazon.ca/GearWrench-Ign...6&keywords=hei

Do not just ground a spark plug lead. that can blow the coil. 94

Start with that Idle air control valve. Older cars its a serviceable valve. On my 92 ba18a1 its below the throttle body with a coolant line running to it. My car has an IACV (idle air control valve, only mechanical, runs on coolant temp) and and EACV (Electric air control valve). The EACV is located on the back of the intake with a 2 wire plug going to it. Other than that, I know that my Integra will burn up platinum spark plugs, use OEM copper plugs. Also the rotor screws have fallen out on 2 different dizzys for me. Put thread locker on your rotor screw!


This is the IACV on my 92 b18a1

Make sure your O2 is wired and connected. Reset the ecu after the O2 is installed properlly and wired and see if its still the same.
