i have a 92 civic si, and i just recently put a new Z6 in it. its the same motor, so it should be a direct replacement. anyways, my car does not run right. it almost sounds like mis-fire and/or timing issues. you can smell fuel like crazy. it whines when you drive/rev it, and also does not hardly accelerate when floored. i just replaced the plugs today, and is still the same way.

please help me out TR!

 

when u put the distibutor on is it timed rite cuz the way it sits can make it run rich or lean. so checkl that. did u leave nething unplugged

 

jake told me things to try in the morning. i am throwing codes: 10,14,22,7. i will keep this thread updated.

 

so dewey did you figure it all out or is it still running like caca

 

Thanks to Cold Burr for the deletes on the annoying posts by JDM Neon, guy talking smack and had nothing to do with anything

 

yeah geeze, wtf is up with people these days? lol that evil face is crazy. but anyways, i honestly think that the guy only put 2 cylinders in haha. cause i even did some looking and i have NO idea what it could possibly be. and i mean just by the sounds of it i KNOW all of them arent firing. did you adjust your throttle cable yet too?

 

Check and see if the firing order is right. BASE timing shouldnt affect it to that extent

 

ok so i havent had much time to mess with it, but i know im throwin iat, iacv, tps, and vtec pressure switch. ill bet im throwin the tps due to the throttle sticking. when i have a chance, ill try and switch a few connectors around to fix the iat and iacv codes.
im sure the firing order is right, because it wouldnt start up any other way.

 

no it would start but do weird shit...

 

i tried starting it with a few diff. firing orders, and we could not get it to start.
