www.full-race.com , in my opinion the best Honda manifolds around, pretty pricey though.

Check the resistance at the injectors to make sure their not bad. I'm just throwing out ideas.

check the primary fuel filter in your gas tank.

update time well i checked the injectors and they r at factory specs,and i changed the primary and it is still doing it.....it seems to me like it is losing spark im noticing that its like only in one spot of the throttle but it doesnt do it all the time.....for those who have five speeds to feel what its like just shut your key off when your going down hill with the car in gear that is excactly what it feels like.......please dont stop with the ideas,thanks

it sounds like a misfire, but no CEL. Yeah I would check the timing and change the spark plugs.

the gap is @ 1.1 mm thats is what the tag on the hood said does that sound right

Greenblurr93
05-17-2005, 06:26 PM

well tps sensor is pop rivotted on the manifold how do i change it and where do i find one

Greenblurr93

orfer one from any auto parts store, as far as it being getting it off... you prolly need to cut the rivots and im sure if thats the case, then the new TPS will come with bolts.. but get the TPS first so you know what your getting into

I am pretty sure that you can't buy just the tps; I think you have to buy the whole throttle body assembly, but I could be wrong.

your correct its 740.00
but i took it to a friend and he put the computer on the car and we went for a ride and it said the tps was good but the map sensor was spiking like crazy could this be from the aftermarket intake?

not likely, replace you map sensor.

shouldnt be as much as a new TB... lol
