swap problems
 
recently swaped a b16a into my 97 civic coupe and its basically running ****ty
1) weird idle problem sitting still revs to 1500 then drops down to 800
2) vtec kicks in a 5000 then at 5700 to 6000 almost sounds like its kicking in and out of vtec chugs kinda
3) backfires like mad if i let off in any gear past 3500 rpm

make sure to bleed the cooling system properly, there could be an air bubble in your cooling system causing it to idle crappy.

Which ECU are you using?

Without more info, it'll be pretty hard to diagnose the problem over the internet.

ecu is the p28 iam pretty sure
as for the cooling problem i think u might be rite would this all cause the engine to get really hot at idle?

zeeman 10-Jun-2008 09:20 AM

yes it would

does anyone now why my vtec kicks out at 6000 rpm? wiring problem?

akira 11-Jun-2008 05:18 PM

chipped ecu? or stock?
cause a p28 should be i believe 5500

Which forums?

zeeman 12-Jun-2008 06:07 PM

no smart asses on here...lol.

Just to clarify, you have to give as much info as possible about the model of car, year, engine, mods and other pertinent information to have the best chance of getting useful info when making a post about your car on the forums.
