I have recently converted my EG8 sedan from a d15b7 to a b16a and ever since i have had it it has been giving me issues, firstly the distributor failed so i bought a new one from the states and it actually started to run okish.
While i was driving it about 2-3 weeks later i noticed that every so often it started to miss (about 4-5 times over about 30-40 k's) and when i got home it was running really well, like plenty of acceleration and power. My mate said that it could be the spark plugs so i changed them over then it started to run really shit! Had very little response when i slowly revved it and when i dumped it it would usually stall. I started to unplug injectors and found it was running on the 2 cylinders which are closest to the distributor. I then checked injection, spark, and fuel and all checked out ok on every cylinder. The only thing i havent checked is compression but would like any input if there is anything else to check..
