I was detailing the engine bay today and i used brake parts cleaner like i always do and the carefully rinsed off with water. After cleaning, I drove to a friends house and the car ran fine. Upon leaving his house a few hours later a CEL pooped up. No strange noises or anything except that the car doesnt want to go past 4k rpms. Not sure about the code, I will check tonight. I also dont have a book to see what the code is, so ill probably be back on here later to find out. Im already guessing that something might have gotten wet while cleaning the bay but not sure what.If anybody knows anything off the top of there head i would really appreciate it. thanks guys

 

probably coincidence with the water... sounds like vtec limp mode. check your oil. it's probably low...

 

I checked everything and then reset the computer and now evrything works fine. I think that something did get wet while washing and just had to dry. I dunno. Anyways my one problem turned into another when i diconnected the battery. There is a anti-theft feature which disables your radio/cd player if the battery is disconnected. You need a 5 digit number to enter in the radio before you can get it to work again. Since my car was used i never received one. I should have but didnt. Luckily a buddy works at honda and i got the serial num off the back of the radio. Now im good to go. What a bitch!
