Did your engine every get hydrolocked?! I would take that into a mechanic immediately before you bend a rod.








...just kidding. I'd have to relisten to clips of my own to see if I have any little pops like that. If you had a problem with misfire your CEL would be on constantly, or intermittently. Funny, I had that problem...CEL's...bam, misfire cylinder 1, 2, 3, 6 misfire on all cylinders etc...pulled the battery and reset ECU and it never came back.

 

Infact i wasnt scaring you.....

when the car is cold and you rev it you will experience misfires.....Acura's have this "feature" to heat up the cats up quicker....so if you car was cold and you gun it, misfires and it wont show up any codes either....

if your car is warm and it misfires, you should def see codes....can you post all the codes you are getting on here ?

 

i think it was a po141 any help pleasE? idk the other code but it has something to do with tcc and its caused my vsa to stop working all together

 

you need a secondary O2 sensor and spark plugs per this:

i'll have to get my tl all jacked up this weekend to look at the cat. looks like ill be doing some getn jacked up this weekend

 

somewhat on a side note, what did you mean by custom intake? was that part of the diet or before?

 

just a ghetto rigged sri i made. i guess you could say its weight savings? probably only about 4 or 5 pounds though

 

nice, a CAI is usually around 8-9 lbs well the AEM v2 is.. havent done the weight of the others

 

fark....i got the same code while i was researching for the code for ya

you bastid !!!

but imma run some seafoam thro the gas tank and engine crank case and vac port in the next 300-400 miles when its time for an oil change !!!

 

thats a coincidence. i am really hoping for some good luck and it just having to be plugged back in. ive seafoamed my car twice since ive had it. makes me feel good whenever i seafoam it

 

so did the codes come back after seafoam ???

everytime i clear the code they come back after 2 days

P0149 and P0159

 

nah ive seafoamed it twice since ive had it not since it happened. mine stays on from the moment the car is turned back on after being erased so i think they could be unplugged

 

^^^ so the codes did not come back after seafoam ????

 

lol i never seafoamed it recently! i meant since i had the car. sorry im very unclear when i write sometimes. swoosh are you part of jnr? i have some questions

 

^^^ aaah....

well depends what part

well am helping him setup the GB and getting the payments in and ordering stuff....i can answer the questions you have

about Seafoam, i like it....am planning on doing a seafoam in the next few weeks when i have to change my oil....

 

ive put it in my oil as well before. i like seafoaming for some weird reason. but i was just wondering when i do my 6speed swap if i could use his jnr ecu instead of having to get the rv6 patch harness to make vtec and speedo work and such

 

Anil, what's causing your codes?!?! the PCD's?

 

yes you can use the JnR ECU, it comes with the patch

but will confirm with Rodney and let you know.....

no sir....I have had the PCD;s since ~40K miles with no codes and all of a sudden boom code.....going to do some more finding :read:

 

would be huge help if you could confirm with rodney that it would negate the need for the richie patch would save me a lot of money seeing as i would eventually want to be tunable as well

 

What moron of a shop told you all that shit so I can be sure not to go there lol

 

that moron would be "toyotaisbetter"

 

Thanks Anil...I hope you find it!

 

have you found out any information sorry im really excited about this

 

just did throttle body bypass. will have to do vsa bypass as fucking well... stupid japs. but im not going to touch the vsa until i do my 6speed swap because i dont want to mess anything up AND I FIXED MY 02 sensor i think!! i just retightened all the o2 wires i think those bastards wiggled it loose messing with my exhaust im excited!

 

Why does that TL sound like a trumpet????

 

VSA BYPASS?! What is this? Is it something that keeps traction control off? If so, kptechnologies makes a module you can put in that will keep your traction setting...that way you could turn it on if you need it.

 

2gtls....sorry bro havent spoken to Rodney yet....he is busy with his new born

if this has a sense of urgency, let me know and I will call him and steal from his family time.....

about the CEL, no luck as of now.....last night i did this (see pix) and wont be able to find out the CEL for another week

 

Did a smurf poop in your engine bay?

 

 

yeah, what is that?

 

the blue was from his yester-years.. when he only cared about style

 

But what is it? Did he spray paint the motor?

 

^^^ Jer...am the king of overspray !!!

back in 2007 i painted my manifold blue and without the knowledge of how to take it off and do it right !!!

so i picked up the rattle can, threw some news papers around the engine bay and went to town LOL.....see thats the problem of buying an Acura as your first car....

if i would have started out with a civic or a corolla, i would have known better LOL....

am actually waiting to get my heads done (later this year), this will provide me with the opportunity of removing everything and doing it right

 

no urgency for another 2 or 3 weeks. but hahahaha nice engine bay

 

that is awesome Anil...
let's make up a cool story about how you were using some AC dye to find a vaccum leak!

 

Perfect....

hahahha dude that will be hilarious

i hope i dont have to do that thow :knocksonwood:

 

you have wood?!?

 

ummm yeah....i did last night when i posted
