could be alot of things if you think about it, just take it to a shop and have it looked at. doesnt sound like u know much about motors, the last thing u want is to *** it up more. (or just get a new swap)

i dont know much about honda's, i had a toyota and i knew ever inch but im new to honda motors. TPS's and knock sonsors and such. when i unplug the TPS it runs alittle better but the only time it dies out, like it has been, is at night. map sensor is plugged in, but i am gettin a CEL for o2 sensor and Knock sensor now, i am goin to rewire both bc they look kinda getto. do knock sensors just go out? is there a way to test if a knock sensor/ o2 sensor is good or bad?
