ok i just got the new motor in my crv.

but i have one problem that is driving me nuts

i have a crackshaft speed sensor CEL.

and sometimes when i just crack the throttle a little it blips up and down.then when you give it more gas it stops. also it will not idle up when cold it still idle low. like almost wants to die. some times it does. but once it warms up it idles fine.

here is the setup.

lsvtec
b18a block
gsr pistons
milled .030 b16head with 95 gsr cams, valve lash .006 in/.007 ex
99 si intake manifold with itr T/B
00' si ecu

any ideas? could the ckf sensor be causing this

 

bump for a need to know

 

you mean the crank angle sensor? if so thats located in your dizzy, basically you need a new one and that will solve your problems, i know from experience

 

no the crank speed sensor on the timing belt.

 

I thought that was called the crankshaft fluctuation sensor?

 

What code # is it?

 

54

 

54 is the crank fluctuation sensor not to sure but I think that would have to do with the distributer.

 

no it is on the crank by the timing belt pulley

 

do you have that sensor on there?

 

It's because the 00 SI ecu is looking for the signal from that sensor, and unfortunately, its going to keep looking due to B18A's not having one.
