at low rpm's my car is missing.. from 0 to 3000 grand... if i easy into it, it won't miss... and its not in high rpm's so i figured it wasn't my valves.. I was thinking to check my cap in rotor.. if anyone got idea's or suggestions it would be appreciated..

 

Well instead of "thinking" to check those things, why don't you check the basics first, then, if your problem still persists, proceed to ask specific questions.

Saying stuff like "my car has a miss" is like saying "I don't feel well today"

Both statements can cover a wide array of problems.

 

ya... Thats why this is jacking me off cuz it could be so many things... I was just looking to see if anyone else had a problem like that.. Im poor and i can't do this trial and error shizzel. when you say check the basics what do you mean, Like what? Help me out..... Thanx

 

fuel, spark, compression... the basics. When's the last time you changed the plugs? fuel filter?

Atleast while you are taking this stuff out, inspect it. What did the old plugs look like ? Was there signs of leanness ? richness? incorrect gapping ?

How are the wires ? cracks ? And how did you determine that the cap and rotor "looked ok" ?

You can't just change things and expect it all to work out. You must draw conclusions as to why these things happen. It will help you better understand how you engine works and that will soon lead you to how to make it produce the most HP out of what you do.

 

The plugs looked grey... and they looked like i might be running a lil lean.. but i talked to someone at honda and they said that sounds normal... my vtec controller is set at stock settings so it shouldn't be running lean... I'm just going to have to take it to acura tomorrow i guess.. Thanks for all the feed back and help... I really appreciate it..
