it was about 3 weeks ago that i was suppose to cruise up to ottawa to pick up my buddy from school & the night before the cruise up i was gonna go out and when i tried to start the car it would turn on then just bog out. Of course i was like wtf? so i kept trying and it would only stay on if i was on the gas and the second i let off it would die.

I got 2 engine lights, #7 - TPS & #10 - IAT. I let the car sit for about an hour and when i tried to start it again it just wouldnt turn on. I was pissed cuz i was already tired of all the BS with this car & now it wouldnt run. So i said fuck it and just let it sit in the garage cuz i didnt wanna deal with it.

Anyways, today i finally decided to replace the TPS sensor which is bitch cuz its riveted on so i just took the TB to a scrapyard and switched it with one off of a 5th gen accord. I just finished installing the new TB like 5 minutes ago and of course the car still wont start. The TPS engine light is gone so the sensor is good & i still have a light for the IAT but that shouldnt stop the car from starting. It cranks and cranks but nothing, almost turned over once but it just popped & nothing.

So i just left it cuz im not in the mood to deal with it but i really dunno what it is... Im beyond tired of this shit & cant wait to get rid of it..FML

 

 

bro what ecu are you running? did u ever look into the phearable ecu i was telling u about? I think your wiring/Ecu is to blame. Mine is the same motor as yours, theres really no reason why your car should be having to put up with all these shenanigans with the motor. Took me 2 MONTHS to do the wiring, but as u can see it came out right. Lets get this fixed, PM me your SN or something.

 

im running a P06 chipped to a P28 with a custom basemap..i have looked into the phearable ecu but i havent had the funds to grab it but im finally workin again so i got some cash flow comming in again.

I know the wiring is to blame & the ecu too but since i was away at school i havent had the time or money to do anything about it & what do you want me to PM you? the SN on the ecu?

 

niether of those sensors should prevent starting. a TPS will not activate VTEC and an IAT will surge your idle IIRC.

I'd definitely look in your ECU. are you OD1 or ODB2? look into a p13 or p05 being from the bb1 and bb6 prelude respectively. might work.

 

PM me your screenname so i can hit u up on AIM or something. Maybe i have some insight on it.

 

pmed.

im obd1 & i had a p13 for a bit but the motor wouldnt run properly on it so thats why i switched to the chipped P06..

 

check your ecu allen cause those codes make no sence. good lucj and keep up posted

 

H22 are prone to problems? what is this

 

no H22s are just as reliable as Fs or Ds or Ks.

his issue is wiring and conversions.

 

wow there's so many abreviations in this thread it rediculous!.. but yea, def. sound like wiring/ecu.. fuel delivery?

 

hahhaha whata NooB

 

ok so today i worked on the car to try to figure out whats goin on.. the car has spark, fuel & everything checks out..

one thing we found out is that the fuel pump isn't gettin enough power but we ran a wire from the pump to the battery and the car started but wouldnt stay on, it would die immediately...

so we ended the day with that cuz we had no clue what it could be, i really dunno where go with it..

 

oh and i replaced the plugs cuz they were roasted black

 

main relay and related fuses. check those. I had that issue on my Prelude. wouldn't start.

 

k so i replaced the main relay & now i can hear the fuel pump priming but it still starts & dies on the spot..

i dunno whats next? im trying to find someone around here with an ECU that i could borrow to see if that changes anything..

 

i was gonna say that it sounded like a fuel intake problem from what u described

 

your fuel pump might be dead
sounds like it

 

damn that sucks brah

 

Allen, i thought you were gonna take it to my mech months ago, wha happen?

 

yea man i know, that was the plan but the day before i was gonna bring it in i ended up smokin a curb and bending my subframe. So the car sat for like a month till i got time to fix it again..

 

ouch that's sucks dude. been there done that twice (sort of) with the accord.

 

dunno what to say except I hope you get the Silver Bullet A.K.A. Red Rocket back up to par asap. Good luck!!!!

 

Silver bullet, man I miss those days, all the trash talking

 

thats cause Percy lost then went crying. On the way he tripped and broke his tranny
Only diff not he got a more expensive tranny to break. Lets not mention the losing part.

 

He DID lose to Shaun AGAIN the other day btw. Guess there's no real reason to keep talking smack lol... but then again thats just how he is.

 

yea i miss those days

but dont worry percy, its not over yet

 

I called shaun when I got outta work at 12 and he said you guy's were in for the night and Sat was a no go. BELIEVE ME, I'm ready for anyone of you h22's!!! I'm free ALL WEEKEND, hit me up!!!


the good ol day's and That's what I'm talking about!!! She's down now, I never counted her out.....

 

damn right..

one day i'll finally find my way down to Jersey..been what, like 3 years now?

 

^^^ I got nothing but time,eventually we'll cross path's. I ain't going anywhere anytime soon, in fact I actually might be in you area mid summer. I'll hit you up if the roadtrip goes down.Never been to so you gotta let us know the hotspot's.

Once again good luck, it's prob the easiest, most retarded, thing holding you back. Hope she's back up to par soon......

 

FIXED

 

LMAO
Brokedick Percy

 

Percy, there's always a spice added to the forum when you stop back

 

So you're telling me that you didn't meet up with Shaun the day after we called u up and he didn't put a whoopin' on you? I'm not talking about the day we both called you, we ran eachother that night, once with his cutout closed and once with it open. He said he did the same thing with you the next day or somethin. And if he's right about the results, me n u would be a very good race.

 

we gotta get a CL meet going when u finally fix that damn thing. I'd DEFINITELY get the encounters on video. NJ Tpke is a 3 lane road, sooo that could be all kinds of race combos between you, me, shaun, matt, arber, kumar, and paco n f22vtec can race since they both have single cams

 

u guys get a real big CL meet, and I'll rent a trailer

 

I'd go just so you guys can laugh at me and all my noob questions.

 

:shakehead Are you serious?? I wasn't there.lol No race ever happened,I'll admit I was alittle shook THAT NIGHT and was gonna throw my stockies on the next day cuz my rim's weigh me down a slight bit. I never got a call the next day after you guy's were in on fri night.

BELIEVE THIS: IF ANYTHING GOES DOWN AZ WILL KNOW, I HAVE MY VIDEO CAM AT ALL TIMES AND WHOEVER GET'S OWNED (EVEN IF IT'S ME) THE VID WILL BE POSTED.

 

As long as you don't drop your camera out the window again

 

i believe Percy. There is a lot of untrue fabrications out of Shawn so.

we def need to meet up. im starting my turbo manifold fab tomorrow when i order the flange together with the ss 2" fittings lol. my primaries will be bigger than some exhausts on az. lmoa

Allen. did you fix your car i really think its your fuel pump some dying fuel pumps do manage to start but then die you should take out the banjo fitting at the fuel rail. place the line in a bucket and keep cranking the key make sure you get a steady stream.

keep us posted
