Car bogs out....help me please...
 
Well, it only happens randomly on the highway, and possibly when i am in the higher rpms but the car seems to bog out even though i drop a gear or whatever.....it almost sounds like there is no gas getting to it, very little, or too much....i dunno what it could be...it still idles nice though.....but it has no power when it does bog out and it really only lasts for a few minutes max.....if it makes a dif the engine is a B18b

I once had a problem like that, after i replaced the catalytic coverter it made such a huge difference in exhaust flow.
It only happened when on high speeds
hope it helps!

theres no cat to replace

zeeman 24-Feb-2006 11:20 AM

sounds like an ignition problem to me. How do the spark plug wires look? Old and dirty and worn out? And cracks in the rubber? How are the spark plugs? Or the distributor cap and rotor? Are the contacts in the distributor cap worn out really bad? Is the rotor tip burned at all or worn down really bad?

Time to change the VTECH fluid.:p

zeeman 24-Feb-2006 12:19 PM

no VTECH on b18b's....maybe its the phenewter valve though.

have you checked/changed your plugs, plug wires, cap/rotor, fuel filter?

imported_Team Rukus 24-Feb-2006 01:24 PM

what exactly was it doing before it blew on you? and how did the car sound?

CaptHowdy 24-Feb-2006 06:17 PM

Fug,

sounds like ignition, just replace the spark plugs. random bogging doesn't mean blown engine.

extreme loss of power all the time or very loud banging = motor soon to blow.

john.. looks like you need a tune-up. If you want I can do it for ya man if you want it done in a nice warm shop instead of the cold of your driveway.

Check what zeeman said.

imported_hdave 27-Feb-2006 02:09 PM

LEITNER 27-Feb-2006 02:18 PM
