I jst bought this car and i put a coldair intake on my car and then got into an accedent the following week some drunk hit me, anyways ever sence i got the car back its been acting realy weird like it wants to stall out, even when im driving down the highway and my cars an automatic.
now my check engine light is on and its flashing. ive taken it back to the dealership 4times and they say that nothings wrong with the car. a friend told me that he put an intake on his civic and it blew the air sensor on the car. do you think that could be it? i have no way of checking the code for the check engine light or i would but i bought brand new platnum plated sparkplugs gapped made sure they were gapped correctly i took the coldair intake off and put the factory one back on made sure everything was tight i jst dont know whatelse it could be its as if there was water in my gas tank like alot of it "i know thats not it, ive already had it checked but thats what it feels like" but my whole engine will shake like im not givin it enuf gas i dont know.. please some one help me.

Check Your Vacuum Lines...one May Be Off Or Cracked

i have no way of checking the code for the check engine light To read any OBD codes, perform the following sequence.

1)Cycle the ignition key ON-OFF-ON-OFF-ON within 5 seconds.
2)Count the number of times the 'Check Engine' lamp on the instrument panel flashes on and off. The number of flashes represents the code. There is a slight pause between the flashes representing the first and second digits of the code. Longer pauses separate individual codes. For example, flash-flash-flash [pause] flash-flash represents the code 32.

but i bought brand new platnum plated sparkplugs gapped made sure they were gapped correctlyLoose the platinum plugs and put in the stock champion copper plugs or copper NGK's. The neon does not repsond well to the platinum plug.

I bet you have a code 43 misfire from the platinum plugs. The Cold air intake is not your problem.

[QUOTE=das2123]To read any OBD codes, perform the following sequence.

I took my car to AutoZone and they hooked it up and it gave me the code p0301 cylendor 1 missfire. i took out each sparkplug cleaned them and made sure everything was tight and secure and it seems to be running better but everynow and then it will still sputter.

so you think i can go ahead and put my coldair intake back on my car then? i was going to go ahead and change out the sparkpluggs and get 8mm racing sparkplug wires and install them on my car what do you think?

I took my car to AutoZone and they hooked it up and it gave me the code p0301 cylendor 1 missfire.Man it feels good to be right.

Lose the platinums and go to the stock copper champions. If you want to change the wires go ahead. You won't see any increase in HP or anything like that. Spark plug wires do not increase HP, don't believe the hype.
