So I'm pulling out of a parking lot and go to shift into second, get it in gear and all the sudden the motor feels like it starts to suffocate. I give it more gas and its JOLTS back to life. it aslo does this if I let off the gas and then give it gas again.

I can't check the code because the cluster I have didn't have a CEL light. any info as to what could be the problem would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!!!!! thanks guys!

 

Um, what cluster wouldn't have a CEL?

Seems like a MAP sensor problem? Maybe?

 

do you mean there is no bulb for the cel light in your cluster?

yeah, the guy I bought it from didn't tell me he removed the bulb

 

up!

 

the only reason someone would remove the CeL bulb would be to hide a CEL when selling a car, get a bulb and have fun with your cels

this isn't the cluster that came with the car. nor is it the motor that came with it....

 

well thats good, I would still install a new bulb to check the codes

My best guess would be coil

thanks man! I got the bulb in there this morning and jumped the ecu. got a code 7 for the tps. now I need to figure out if it just needs to be adjusted or if its going out. any suggestions/personal experience/guidance is much appreciated! and thanks dc2-guy! ill definitely pm you with any diffuculties!

 

the tps your not suppose to change them out so honda tells me all the time at work but F it just take it off a Civic or something use a hacksaw and cut alittle groves into the oneway screw that holds the tps in... but the right way is to get a new TB.. but i'm hardheaded and try to get out the cheap way.. good luck..
