Default Wiring Radio Issues - 97 Integra GS 2 door

I couldnt find any threads that were similar, but I just got this battery and my radio will play but anytime I turn it on it says overload, and my battery light is on. I'm going to check it for any new codes and post results as well.

sounds like an alternator issue, start the car and check the voltage with a multimeter

Havent even been with the car besides to find a multimeter. And to my disadvantage, I'm left without. It is throwing two misfire codes and two manufacturer codes relegated to a faulty ignition coil and a valve adjustment. Thats as much as i can say without giving you the codes, which ill do when I get out there. I just got off and can look forward to tonight off so todays the day to do it

you can stop by just about any autoparts store and have them test for free, most people on this site are trying to work on there car themselves so basic tools are expected. You can also get a free multimeter from harbor freight with the coupon.

here is a free coupon for HF

Still trying to make sense of your response....

Ok. Now, which manufacturer codes point to a faulty ignition coil or the valves needing an adjustment? I had no idea a 1997 integra was able to relay that kind of specific information?

Also, which stereo displays "overload" when turned on? Is it OEM? China-Made? High end aftermarket?>

There is a bunch of **** wrong man. Im trying to address the issues as I see importance because id really like to fix the motor that's in the car without having to pull. Its throwing codes for all the cylinder misfires, and I pulled the plugs and they were corroded and gross. I'm gonna replace the spark plug gaskets because there was oil in my plug wells. The motor blows white smoke after it warms up as well. Im not sure if its a head gasket or a knicked block or fried rings, but I'm considering just buying a hoist and a new motor so I can run one and build the other. This is my second car and the first one I'm really modifying, around here everyone's bought not built so I'm trying to add some spice in the car scene in southern Illinois. Any help is greatly appreciated, tools and procedures I might need to do may take time to get back to you as I have to buy the tool and do my research. I'm looking to get what I need so i dont have to worry about it next time I'm in a similar position.

I tested the spark by pulling the wires off the plugs while it was running and the motor acted different every time so it doesnt seem like the spark was really affecting it too much(hopefuLily that's not bad on the motor) :0 . It runs lean though and all plugs were gapped to spec.

If I cant narrow this down I'm just gonna get a different head. Not sure on if I want to go LS/VTEC though or Turbo, id also like to be able to switch through maps between 200HP, 315HP, and 450HP. I would be utilizing the search bar for some things but it doesnt seem to work on my phone, but if you link a relevant thread I can access it.

Along with suggestions as to what might be ailing mt motor, can you link me a thread on the type of build I should pursue for a reliable 450HP? Part suggestions, brand suggestions, DIY how-to's, I'm gonna need it all. This car is a test to see if import tuning is a career I might want to pursue. Anything you have to make it a better experience is highly appreciated. Me, and my car, thank you.

I know this is off thread topic, but I'd rather keep from making a new one and cluttering the Admins notifications. I dont need to get kicked from a forum with so much useable information for being that kid that makes a new thread for every seperate question he has. Lol

Go in the showcase section in this forum. Start reading builds.
Go on google. Search for what you want. When multiple hondatech or teamintegra results are found you will get the option to see more results from that site. Click it. Read builds and soak up information.....
