Unhappy 1.5 runs good half the time

ok well half the time my crx runs like crap and the other time runs perfect

its a d15b6

misses a bit unless your accelerating and idles rough when it doesnt wana run good

back fires once in a while when sitting at a light

did a tune up on it, ran sea foam thru it, adjusted the vavles

i was gona swap it out but money got really tight

any idea? thanks

Sound like that may be it.........and you don't have to hook the car up to anything to see if it is running any codes. The ECU flashes.

I would say the timming is off but you say this does not happen all the time. Try the dizzy can't hurt for $20.00.
