my b16a1 is missing pretty bad in the higher rpm's. it start to miss around 6,000rpm's up to 8200rpm's. my car is runing a little lean when it hit's vtec would running cause it to hesitate or do u think i should replace my spark plugs,dizzy cap and rotor also could the fuel filter be a problem .plese help me!!!!

 

Do a little maintaince like you mentioned and see if that helps the problem. Cap, rotor, plugs, fuel filter, and plug wires if they are old. The check engine light isn't on by chance is it?

 

check the coil too

 

sounds like a sparkplug went bad.. happend to me.. on my turbo GSR

 

thanks guy's and no i don't have a cel by the way

 

My motor had similiar problems due to being too lean. It would hesitate for a second and then be okay. If your not runningthe stock ecu, and you do not know how lean it is running I would go to the dyno small price to pay could cause serious damage.

 

do anyone know if your 02 sensors are bad it would cause missing and does anyone know of a way i can check my distributor to see if it's bad because i reaed somewhere if i see red dust on the rotor the wheel bearings or sumthings gone bad

 

Do you have a fuel pressure guage? any kind of fuel management? how do you know it is running lean? is it pinging? checked plugs?

also a friendly warning take that Avatar off before you get a PM from a mod, people use this site at work and we don't need anyone getting in treble.

 

Give the car a good tune up and see what happens.

 

yes i have a fuel pressure gauge and a fuel pressure regulator the fuel is set to 32psi any higher and the car misses even more.

 

Add some oil. my GS-R did the exact same thing. I then added oil and it was fine.

do a search on b16 hesitation........try swapping your c8 and c16 O2 pins on ECU connector.......mine quit hestating by doing this.
