ok, b16 crx si: I replaced my rotor because it slipped off while i was driving, and ever since then, my car has been bogging really bad after ive been driving for like 1/2 hour. today, after just 5 mins, she stalled- I lost all acceleration, and eventually she just died (it felt just like when my rotor slipped off). It was a lil difficult to start her, but i finally did, and took her back home. also, the check engine light will come on, and go off after a few secs or sometimes mins, but the ecu wont throw any codes, but sometimes, the cel will come on but not blink, just stay solid. Please guys help me out here- ive reset my ecu, checked my tps, cleaned my iacv; im out of ideas!

 

need more info...
when does it bog while driving normal under 3000rpm...
or only when you boot it.?
it its sputtering and bogging while you drive normal sounds like the ars being starved for fuel...check your fuel regulator.. also check the fuel pressure and crimp the return line and check for max pressure which should be around 80or something
and operating pressure should be 40 orso all in PSI

 

the problem occurs, while braking, accelerating, and cruising, no matter what rpms... but iv never had it happen high up, like 5k, but i dont hit it that often anyways, so it wouldnt really get a chance. ill check the fuel pressure, but i kinda ruled that out, because, i can smell it running rich after it bogs.

 

this kid with a b20 had the same problem it all started when his rotor fell off... he tried everything ended up just buying a new Dizzy, trying switching it with a known good one.

 

happen to me the other day aswell. same exact thing. rotor came off, car died. got it started and would just bog out. changed my dizzy, wha-la, problem solved. car ran fine after that.

 

will the dizzy from my old d16a6 work? I know the rotor, and cap and stuff work from it.. or do i need to buy one from one of those jdm sites?

 

yes it will work

 

How about the cat? My buddies did the same thing and his catalytic convertor got blown out the exhaust. I know when you loose the rotor, it just dumps fuel into the exhaust and I believe the hot cat lit on fire. I wish I was there to see that. He told me that big red sparking chunks flew out the back and this was at night! So maybe your cat is blocked up?

 

correct me if im wrong but i don't think you can use a A6 dizzy on a b16, exspecially if the b16 is obd1....

 

Its obd 0- If not an A6 Dizzy, what car should i order it for? 90-91 teg?

 

what i did wa had my old one rebuilt. worker out great for me.

 

ahh ha, i swapped out the coil from my old a6 to my b16 dizzy, and she works like a charm! Thanks for ur help guys
