92civicVX stalling stumbling problems

mech found vacuum leak in brake booster, I replaced booster, ,master cyl and 1 caliper, then I found bad drive shafts and upper control arm/ball joint. Please help this free car is getting expensive. Car still stalls till i let up on throttle or give it more then it stumbles and goes. Idle is good and acelerates good too. Any Ideas/

Car runs good till it comes up to operating temp then it starts acting up.

I have a '94 vx that is doing the same thing. I'm kinda lost as to what to do with it... Nothing seems to be really wrong with the car. I thought it might be the timeing or the vtech not working but i'm not getting any CEL and my timeing is right on. I really do wish i could clear it up, because its gets on my nerves while crusing down the road at a steady speed... Keep cutting out until you give it some gas and then clears right up for a few sec. Mine is also running very rich but i just thought it was because i was running with a header and one O2 sensor.

I hope we can figure it out or someone could give me some ideas as to what it might be. I'm thinking about changing out my throttle body and seeing if that might clear anything up. I have one just layin here from another car so don't hurt to try. thought it might be the TPS sensor.

Did you try anything with the fuel idk alot about cars but my friend had problems with his truck and it sounds kinda liek the same thing you guy are haven and it turned out to be the fuel pump and the lines were clogged from sitting idk if this help....

i dont know if this will help but back whan i had a 77 caddy it was doing the same thing. i found a massave vac leak and that seemed to be better but not a full fix. i looked at the dist cap and it was nasty under there repaced that then i looked at the spark plugs and they were gapped really off, after replacing all that its was perfect.

Ok as far as everything you just named the only thing i haven't really looked for is a vaccum leak. Up to this point this is all that has been done to mine. It was wrecked for starter, sitting in someone barnyard. Bought it for $800 and brought it home. Sat for almost two years at my house until i got time to work on it.
Straighten the front of the frame welded a new radiator support to the front along with a rebar. Pulled the motor to repaint. While the engine was out. Changed the clutch, timing belt, water pump, intake gasket. Dropped the engine back in. Then sheet metal and paint. After that changed the plugs and wires. had to gut the distrubitor and replace almost everything in it. Yes i changed the cap also. Retimed it and it was dead on.
For the fuel part i have changed the filter and regulator.

Like is said in the my last post it only does it after it has warmed up and only does it when your at a idle speed, in gear.

I do have a pro shift digital tach and it starts going nuts when the car does that....so i'm thinking it has something to do with the timeing.

When i changed all the distrubitor out it was from a 95 non-vtec del sol with the 1.6 liter engine. I was thinking twice about using it but after pulling it off and taking it apart i didnt' notice a difference with the compontents of it, just the houseing and mounts. So i gutted my old burnt out on and replaced it with all the internals if the delsol's. So if there is something different about the vtec's and non-vtech that might be my problem.

If thats the case ez fix. Just need someone to prove to me thats what it is before i go buy one. I'm cheap

that is exactly your problem then, i've done alot of reserch on vtecs and there is no way you can mix them up. if you have non-vtec then you have to have non-vtec parts and same with vtec you can only have vtec parts. if you change your stuff to what your engen needs it will not do that any more

Ok have you ever takin one apart? I want you to point out what is different about it then. Because i had both of them in my hand and the only differents was the case so until i see that there is someone different about them then i'm not going on "i read this or that". So by what you are saying nothing on a non-vtec will work on a car with a vtech? Ever heard of a Frankstien engine with at non-vtech block with a vtech head on it? I have taking many parts off the delsol to for my car. I would look all them up on a part stores web site before to see if it was the samething i was going to get if just went and brought it new.

As far as the vtec all it is the a extra set of lifters that lock in and start opening up extra valves. Ex has all together three lifters sets performace and the on i have one i have (VX) the vtech opens other lifter for some more permformance but the engine is mainly for fuel saving

theres a part in there that acts with the vtec silinoid, if you dont belive me reserch it your self. i google most of my stuff. and its just some of the electrical engen controlers in vtec not the hole car, i know distrabuter,ecu, head,ect that kinda stuff.

Naw man, all the valves work all the time with VTEC. It's some of the newer I-VTEC engines that start using more valves. VTEC just changes to a more aggressive cam profile at higher rpms.

And as far as I know, the guts of the distributors should be the same. The differences start with the different OBD's.

I go and buy i a new distrabuter and this don't work i'm going to be pissed
