well after i put on my b16 IM i have been running really rich. and yersterday on my way to school my car started shakingand now it also sounds weird, i dont now how to explain it but i kinda sounds like a WRX, kind of like if it were running on 3 cylinders
i checked all my plug wires and they all seem good and theyre all connected, what can i have fuked up??? what else could i have messed up if any????
my ecu is throwing me egr code, for the IACV i hooked up everything up to it execpt i put the resistor on it. the idle kinda bounces a little, not very smooth, dont know exactly what it could be
have you checked your fuel pressure? what kind of injectors are you using?

im using stock injectors, the fpr is stock, if i have it hooked up to the IM ill run lean and if i dont hook it up ill run richso i have to get an adj. fpr and i cant really check the fuel pressure since i dont have a pressure gauge hooked up, but ill be getting one with my fpr
ohhh nooo the dreaded subeeee. Lol, when turbo hondas sound like subarus you know something is very very wrong (blown motor) i bet your problem is something simple like that. Pull your plugs and take a look

Is it time for a rebuild yet Gio? If so you know where to find me.
ok...what do you do that i dont know about? do you have hook ups related to rebuilding? if so....why didnt you tell me?!?!!? bastard lol
anyway i heard his car when its idling. and it sounds kinda like braaaum bap braaum bap braaaum bap barroom barroom baraaum bap braaum bap
kinda weird
Not really hookups but my girfriends dad is a machinist and I can build a motor like no otherOriginally Posted by mkymonkey

Im in between jobs right now but when I start working again I plan on building the extra a20 I have.
EDIT: hey Gio if you dont fix your problem by this weekend come by my house we'll take care of it.

all the sensors going to the egr are hooked up, but its not really connected to the pipe that goes to the headers, its just hanging.... oh and the car kinda shaking and sounding like a subaru, its not doing today
it sounds like your FPR is fubar'd. i'd just try another one from a boneyard, or a cheapie on ebay...

what does that mean?
check the engine compression. you may have blown headgasket.

wait a minute... what kind of throttle body and TPS are you using? I know that some TPS read backwards from others. Some go from 0.5v - 5v, closed to open. but some read 5v-0.5v... you should measure what your stock one reads, and make sure the other reads the same, otherwise swap the two. I had major problems with this on my prelude once.well after i put on my b16 IM i have been running really rich. and yersterday on my way to school my car started shaking

i have a b18 tb on it with the b18 tps, should i put the my accord one in instead???
i did what cke said on his rebuild thread, he use a 10w resistor from radioshack, but your going to have to manually warm it up, its going to idle as if it were warmed up already
ive fixed a lot of these problems. ive got some more questions though, my idle is really weird, if its above 1k rpm it kinda bounces a little but if its idling below that, how its supposed to be, its perfect. could this be because im running rich???? and in order to bring back the idle to normal i have to pull the gas pedal back with my foot and it idles perfect
The throttle cable might be sticking aswell as your car running rich. Either that or maybe the return spring has lost it's tension for some reason.
oh yeah, just connect the vac line to your map sensor (that was easy)

huh?? my map sensor is hooked up, i never touched that
could my idle problem be that im not getting enough vacuum for all the lines i have hooked up?? on the b16 IM theres only one vacuum line hook up wich i believe is for the fpr and i have all of my lines hooked up to that
