me and a friend were on the high way, and we took off from a red light. and my dumb *** fault didnt shift, and it hit rec limitor. now when i am driving it almost seems like it is running on 2-3 cylinders. when i was going back to my house i was in 3rd and when i would accelerate a little it would make a poping noise. can anyone help, any ideas what i did. i also poped the hood and was feeling above each cylinder on the valve cover and spark plug boots and above 1 and 4 cylingers it was kinda eratic. feels like they maybe missing? thanks

 

any ideas??

 

Umm, pull the head and see what you messed up?

 

make sure none of your spark plug wires popped off the dizzy. Also, make sure your having spark through all the plugs on your dizzy. If not the case, then perform a compression test or even better a leak down. Might be better to check these before removing the head.

 

If you have a h22 and a p13 computer like i had in my civic hatch. Mine did the same thing it goes into back up mode (limp mode reset your computer and see what happens it does this whenever u throw a code usually

 

i bounce off my rev limiter all the time, never had any issues (knock on wood). run a compression test and report back afterwards.

 

heyjcox i am sure he probably has a tach, but it might not be up to your standards of 5 inch monster tach in your 16.6sec civic.

wtf?

I'm guessing from locations you probably know him

 

Stop trying to be m4d tYt3 vT3cH y0 and get yourself a shift-light. Do a compression test and check what compression numbers you get. People these days...

what was the point of the 3 posts after this one??? I'm sure you friend will thank you when his thread gets locked bucause of you.

 

he is a accord lover, he dont know what he is talking about, the only install he has ever done was on his grandma's car. He put a steering wheel cover on it that said Type R. he may claim to know but doesnt know the differents between a hole in his head and the whole in his exhaust. he loves to blow smoke.

 

riiight... well i just did the same thing accedently trying to pass someone today and i down shifted into Second and wasn't paying attention because i thought i had plenty of room.... so far i'm ok but this car really needs a trans flush BAD!!!

 

seriously folks, hitting the rev limiter is OK. it is there for a reason, i bounce off my rev limiter all the time at autocrosses (nearly every weekend). car still runs like a charm.

 

Same here. Bounce the rev-limiter all the time at autox and never think twice about it. Have more of a cooling problem than anything else.
