I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

Throwing code 43 now. Apparently according to my buddy/tech/tuner its time for a fuel pressure regulator. lol BTW the 2 o2 Sensors, Speedometer not functioning, etc. was all a result of a blown fuse. :( lol FAWK. :p

So as of right now the car is not throwing any codes thank god. :) We're now running a B&M Fuel Pressure Regulator, and Gauge, as well as some 240cc Civic Type R Injectors. Definatly runs alot better, as does it idle 10x better. However for some odd reason it hasn't gotten rid of the main issue we're having. For some odd reason whenever driving the car sometimes, not all, feels extremely sluggish, kind of as if its going to backfire, but doesn't 9 times out of 10. Any opinions?

Could this be caused by bad timing? Running to lean? Maybe to rich, considering I do infact smell gas. lol

Now the car runs with the OE ECU, which apparently it shouldn't so well. However it throws 3 different codes. 2 of which are the primary, and secondary o2 sensors, and the obvious other one. We did change it from the 3 pronged sensor, to the 2 pronged censor.

Now in doing this I was going to run an OBD2B to OBD1 Harness as well as an OBD1 ECU to eliminate the secondary o2 sensor, and the other code. However in doing this, it just adds to the problems. It then throws a totally different code, the crank shaft sensor? Plus the other primary, and secondary o2 sensors.

Any idea on how to fix this issue?
ok the first o2 snesor is your mani one.. and the 2nd is the one that tells the ecu if the cat is bad no biggie just unplug it.

as for the crank sensor.. take your crank pulley off then clean the sensor. its steel and is a magnetic pickup and small dirt peices or even iron dust collects on the magnetic surface.. i was throwning that code and i did it and the cod went away after i reset the ecu.
