Okay so i have an h22a4....and at the beginniing of every gear it bogs for a lil second..then takes off and screams....idles fine...but just like when you take off in 1st...or just mash it in 4th...or 3rd...itll bog then take off and scream. I changed the plugs....wasnt them. So im thinking fuel pressure regulator? or bad plug wires? suggestions please...

 

i had a similar problem with an integra i had recently bought as my beater. When i test drove the car, it bogged when I mashed on it. I checked out the plugs and wires and found that one of the plug wires was bad. It turns out i was only running 3 out of 4 cylinders, so it would bog when i was over 3000 rpm. I changed the wires and BAM! Good as new

 

sounds to me like your problem is fuel/fuel supply related. are you getting any engine codes?

 

I think every 5th gen has this problem

 

just curious, how many miles on the clutch, i have seen worn out clutches slip a little going into each gear cause the car to hesitate a little

 

check the fuel pressure...

 

clutch is brand new, buying new wires today.....i hav aftermarket fuel pressure regulator but no gauge so i cant tell the pressure....

eh no...

 

threw this code..... 7 short.... 1 long.....2 short

 

7 short.....pause 1 long 2 short....so 7 and a 12 id assume right..and what would my problems be

 

7) TP Sensor (Throttle Position)
defective circuit or unplugged / defective sensor

12) EGR Lift Sensor (Exhaust Gas Recirculation)
defective circuit or unplugged / defective sensor

these codes are for prelude motors 85-98

here is a helpful link for ecu codes

i dont think these would have anythign to do with my bogging problem eh...prob fuel or wires...ill check those and go from tehre i guess

 

i have a hiflow cat and whatnot so i understand the 12..but is the 7 code bad? what do i have to do to fix it..or where would i look

 

you need a guage i bet your running lean!! When i bought my fpr it was set VERY lean when i first put it in....

 

I doubt it's your wires,
have you pulled them and looked at them?

 

my wires are old, and just oem ones.....imma change them anyways...im thinkn fuel pressure not sure though
