well, maybe it's a good time to give a little feedback, after several weeks of using the car after the swap was sucessfull. In deed, the problem was the TB itself of the used D16 i installe in the first place, the leak was on the throtle plate so the ecu was trying to compensate for the extra air co...

helo guys, i was wondering if anyone knew how to dismount the pistons from the rods, I know you need a press to take out the pins, but would like to see pics, any link?

very interested on this values, i did my mini me and got a aem cam gear. I do feel thet with the current setup i have NO low and mid power at all, would like to have some gaines over there, hope that changing the timing would give me better results, any ideas?

are you still searching this manual? i have the book if you're interested!

hey guys, i finally finished my swap and got it running (more-less) correctly, i fixed the bad craking on the head and the idle that was lumpy is also being controlled. so i had the chance to let the car warm up completely and rev the engine like over 7000 rpms. i wanted to see if the vtec engaged c...

so as i see, here is the possible solution of my idle problem, these valve underneath the d16 tb is calle FITV (fast idle thermo-valve) or something like that, so one side is connected to a coolant hose and the other? a vacum? is it better to take it off and cover it with a metal plate? will my idle...

well, taking a look around on the internet i found that a guy says it could be a tps problem, he describes it just like that high idle then barely stops, high idle and stops, just like mine, so i wonder if it could be so, maybe i screwed up with the wiring? i'll re check that too, or i might try to ...

thanks dodo, well first thing the idle, it goes from 2000 to 400 rpms up and down, up and down, it's not steady. So then i will re do the purge of the coolant system tommorrow morning and check for the tb gasket ( that i actually re use from the d14 tb) then for the crac crac crac i re did the valve...

i am using the sensor on the d16 IM, should i re install the D14 sensor instead? i will check the vacuum hoses but i think that was all good, i was wondering if the iacv was working fine, do you know if the water temp sensors between the d14 and d16 are the same or compatible? I think this has been ...

well i re checked valve clearance and re started the car, a bit less noise this time so i could let the car warm up, after that the idle started to go from 2000 rpms to almost 400, up and down, so the idle is not steady... any ideas??
