    Help! Eg5 b18c2 swap lagging power on acceleration

    Hey guys just wanted an opinion on what could possibly be wrong with my eg with a b18c2.

    When you accelerate there is no power, car slowly climbs in speed, very sluggish. The check engine light is on also but have yet to get a scan. Sounds like the car is choking and restricted by something.



    On idle the car runs smooth, only occurs when you drive or rev the car.

    Any help would be appreciated thanks!

    Are all your sensors connected and working? I'd start by finding out which code the check engine light is throwing to point me in the right direction.

    o2 sensor hooked up correct ?
    Dizzy isn't retarded or advanced fully ?
    TPS hooked up right (not swapped with MAP sensor plug )

    I scanned with ecu with a scanner, got code 41 and 22. I fixed 22 which was vtec pressure switch (car had none) but still have yet to fix o2 sensor (heater) could the o2 be the reasoning behind this?

    o2 not working (heater) dizzy seems okay and the tps is hooked up correctly i believe, do u think it could be the o2 behind the stuggle of power

    Yes - properly wire your o2 sensor and this will help

    Hard wired the O2 sensor today directly to the ECU, Code 41 disappeared but then came up with 6 (ECT sensor INPUT) & IAT SENSOR (VOLTAGE), unplugged the O2 wiring direct and put all wiring back to normal again nothing but CODE 41,

    Any suggestions? im still stuck with this CEL
