Car problem: engine is a b20/vtec, toda cams, timing set at 0. 12:1 compression. I start the car, everything runs fine, RPMs go up to 1500, then drop and I stall out. I tried different settings on the Field controller, and nothing does it. I try giving it some gas and it feels like no gas gets to the engine and the RPMs still drop and I stall out. This problem occurs once a week. The rest of the time, the engine runs like a dream, anyone out there that can help me??? is there something stupid that I should check and it would slove what's going on? just shoot me ideas, I'm tiered of this problem. Thanks!

when I push on the gas once the car is started, it boggles and jumps around, the RPMs don't go up constant. I can't pass 4000 RPMs. if I stop giving it gas, it stalls out immidiatly. could it be a bad fuel pump? or my injectors are clogged?
help from anyone would be greatly appriciated!

 

anyone??? could it be the ignition timing? wires? rotor?

 

If you can't rev pass 4K, your car is probably in limp mode. You should read the ECU code and see what the car thinks is wrong. Since ti doesn't happen all the time, sounds like it is probably a bad sensor of some sort. Good luck!
