Hi,
the JDM ZC 1.6 that i have in my 91 civic is hesistant on take off (kind of bogs down) can anyone tell me the timing procedure and specs for this motor. or can anyone tell me where i might be able to find this info. the motor is installed and wired correctly and seems to run fine, but just doesnt seem to perform the way it should. any help i can get here would be greatly appreciated.
thankyou

What ecu are you using? if you are running an SI or 88-89 integ ecu this is a common problem with ZCs bogging or having a flat spot during low RPMs.

hi,
we are using the ecu out of a 91 civic si that we got about a week ago and it still does the same thing (bogging) i think it may be the timing but i cannot find anywhere the procedure for timing this motor with a timing light.

PM7 is the original JDM ZC ECU. this will give best results. Or you can use your SI ecu if you chip it. Alot of people just chip their SI ecu.
