Surging issue

[Ashwee]

My car is going into AK very soon for some work, might get andy to have a quick look at the timing while I'm there, but its done it long before my distributor died, just not nearly as worse.
It all started about 2 years ago, driving along on my L's, going around a roundabout, car makes a bang noise (like an exhaust backfire) and the surge happened, and its done it ever since then.

BANG! Ouch!

For what its worth, I took some photos of my distributor today.












And here's what the old one looked like:

Here's that bolt,next to the sump,with belt attached:



I would get under the car and just check it..ya never know.

I have similar issue, hesitation / surge around 3000rpm. I checked my Hondata S300 logging and it shows the TPS jumping around at that throttle pressure. I will try the TPS recal -- Also bought a can of the SUEC and will shoot that through tomorrow.. When I took the headers off (to change the sump) i was amazed to see about half a mm of carbon deposit lining the exhaust ports. It was literally flaking off!

I'll see if I can do a log of before and after showing the OBD outputs and post it up.

The Suburu UEC will clean all that carbon out,it's such a good product.

You can even soak ya pistons in it overnight and they will come up new.I've just heard that but haven't done it,running a can through is enough..

I just bought a box of 12 today

I would do the TPS calibration for your problem by the sounds of it.

rofl -- for a second then I thought you were volunteering to do the TPS for me!! hahaha ... Not that lucky I guess!

[beeza]

OK,if you come over mine,we can do it together,PM if ya keen,I'm behind Byron bay at Murwillumbah

You've got the fully black Integra yeah?

Hey, I know this thread is old but have you found out the solution of this cause? You havent updated us with the solution.

It would help a lot since I'm having the exact same symptoms with my DC2R.

Happened to me before on my B16A EG, I was surging between 3.5 - 5k RPM.

Was due to my dizzy was too advanced..Like wayyyyyy too advanced.

Hey tiksie,

Yeah my timing is alright just got it checked today, but some how my dizzy is leaking? so my mechanic told me he'll check it out by cleaning it and he'll see if it still does surging.

Leaking what? lol
