i have a gsr motor in my integra with no check engine light. the car loses alot of power when it gets hott. i replaced the coil cap and rotor. tryed unplugging the oxygen sensor, problem still occurs. it gets really bad after awhile to where the car eventually tries to stall out. i realy want to figure this problem out. i had the same problem on my old b16 and i just want to know what it is. the car produces realy good power when it first warms up but minutes after that it fades away. vtec still pops and at higher rpms the problem doesnt seem as bad, i noticed that theres and ls distributer on it which i thought was dumb. but idk if thats actually the problem or not. id hate to get a whole new dizzzy and still have the same problem. i have a child and this is my only vehicle i dont want to get stranded on the side of the road. i just had it towed home the other night do to losing a wheel at 50 mph. because the previous owner thought it was safe to ride on 3 lug studs that were also stripped to hell. got all of that replaced and now the car is bogging out at stop lights i can barely get up to speed.

PLEASE HELP

 

headgasket?

 

Do you think that will work? im just tired of purchasing parts and not eliminating the problem. you seem to have some experience

 

If its the headgasket then you should be leaking some were or your oil is milky. Does it misfire after a while, check the inside of the dizzy, you could get some sand paper and clean the medal piece that the rotor spin on Check if the timing is loose or off. Let me know was up

 

Does it smoke, or run hot after it warms up?

 

I apreciate the help guys. and no there isnt any coolant in the oil. it doesnt smoke. lately its been trying to stall out if i cruise but if i hold it almost wide open it really pulls. so i dont know if maybe its throttle position sensor is one of the issues . and it does misfire but and stumble upon acceleration. only after running for awhile. other times in cooler weather it feels as if the problem is gone? idk its hard to explain but it fucking sucks

 

the previous owner said that he put the head back on with used headbolts. the head seaps a lil oil and i smell it somtimes. but it never gets low. could i be losing compression? . i have no doubt that it could be the distributer because i just found out it has a LS distributer on it and there IS a difference between gsr and ls distributers because i bought cap rotor and a new coil and none of them fit. the coil wires up and works it just doesnt bolt down in the dizzy. i bought the coil hoping this would fix my problem but it didnt

 

If the previous owner replace or just took the head off check your timing it my be off a 1 or 2 teeth it makes a big difference
change the wires(i think you did) and spark plugs . As for the dizzy it should be k you might have to change a wire around or something also if it sputters then take the fuel filter out and and blow in it it might be clogged up let me know was up bro.

 

yea the fuel filter looks pretty old it might be the original lol. anyone got some msd wires for sale?

 

another question. i have a b16 head on a gsr block. do the b16 cams produce power on this setup or should i find some gsr cams for cheap
