I cleaned it, made it shine. But never had it machined. Stupid question but the radiator being factory wouldn't do it would it? Im boosting more with the same amount of coolant flow as stock. I'm just grasping at straws here.

So I recently rebuilt my 7mgte top end. I didn't pull the motor put of the car, and I threw a metal gasket in it. The hks 1.2 mil gasket to b exact. I've got a lot of money into other parts in the car.. my chassis clean.. Anyways I took my car out for the first time the other day, and the...

I finally drove mine!

I never thought of looking. Plug gaps will def make a difference

I just bought new plugs, they are pre gap plugs so I left them. My dad messed with the screw, I don't even know what its set at from the factory (how many turns in or out)as for the igniter, I have it grounded thru the harness grounds that go to my intake from the factory. Could it just b more...

Yes its set at 10° BTDC. I turned my idle air screw on my throttle body to get it to idle while I was trying to see if it would idle. It wouldn't at first

It idles at 1000rpms. Now that I smoothed out the idle I can drop it a bit. It misses every 10-15sec at idle, the miss gets closer in time but no more pronounced then at idle all the way to 3,500rpms. Once I get past 3,500rpms, the miss gets much further apart time wise. Could it b where I...

More like a miss, only backfires very seldom. It isn't severe, just a pop. Its a miss for sure. Ignitions on the spot with a timing light and jumpered. I'm not sure how sensitive the igniter is. And if it would cause the miss.

So as a little background, I've had issues with my timing, figured out its all ignition and now its running much better.. better dosent mean right... Its popping like its missing.. it does sort of clean out, but it still misses. Do you think where I mounted ny igniter is an issue? (Down up...

Thanks, good to know.

My buddy in his stock 99' civic dx 1.6 non vetec... Beat me in my supra.... Needless to say I blew an intercooler pipe.. and he won't every try racing again lmao. Right when we go to take off, boost kicks, then nothing.. it was like I hit a brick wall with a bang lol. he was proud until I sat on...

Yeah I didn't know that till IJ explained that to me.

I almost feel like my IQ dropped a few points reading all of this...

Haha, you wouldn't wanna b me. I don't even wanna b me.. 0_o

That explains why this particular engine/EFI setup is so finicky. If only I could learn half of what you will forget... I'd b set for life for sure.

I thought so, but I figured I'd check with you guys. Thanks jetjock an novadude. I've been fighting a timing issue that probably wasn't timing.. :/ all cuz I couldn't get it to idle.

So I got thinking, (got a new job so I haven't had much time to work on the ol girl), I have my iac ran into a breather pulling fresh air from the atmosphere. Seeing as its un metered air, when I am still running the lex afm setup, would that cause my poor idle, and make it run rough? Just...

Where can I find a degree wheel for the 7m? I need one, and I can't find one.. or one I can borrow with a deposit? Lemme know, thanks guys.

BC said the car should run with everything zeroed too.

I understand they need to b degreed, but the car should run set at 0 to get a baseline.
