I just put a ls/vtec engine into my civic and the car has no power for some reason. The car did have power alittle while ago but now when i try to drive it as I give it more gas the car revs up high but doesnt go. It seems like there is no power to the wheels or could the engine still rev up and just not produce any power? Any suggestion to why this is are welcome

I do have a very small oil leak that started but i really dont think that the leak is enough to make my engine loose this much power. It is fully built and jsut will not move. So far I have checked the timing, change spark plugs and wires. It seems like the engine has power though but just its not going to wheels.

 

have u got it tuned yet?

 

Tuning, camtiming, ignition timing, so many variables. Please list your setup, "fully built motor" dosent help at all.

 

The motor has power the clutch is just slipping. Its brand new so i was told that it takes alittle while for the clutch to seat before it stops slipping but I was also told that if it doesnt seat after alittle while then I might have an oil leak at the main seal but i replaced that also when i built the motor so im pretty sure it just hasent seated yet.

 

organic clutch or what?

 

It is just an organice clutch. Im going to bleed my system tomrrow and see if there is air in the lines. I dont have ne fluid to do it tonight. Everything is new though and the flywheel was resurfaced so im pretty sure its just air in the system. The main seal was also replaced so i doubt that there is oil leaking from there because that will make the clutch slip.
