DC2R Laggin

[dc2typ35r]

ive never changed my plugs before but ill check em
they good for 100000 right?

i always let my car warm up...problem still occurs...
oil changed just 2k ago

Problem solved...

checked my spark plugs only firing on 3 plugs. Took apart the distributor and it was basically fried with cracked plastic in some parts. The spinning wheel in the distributor was frayed! Anyone know what the cause of this could be? Replaced distributor at a cost of $120.

Problem fixed hopefully.

just wear an tear, my DC2 had a ****ty dizzy.

had to replace it, tho I got ripped off, 120 is a good price.

when it comes to the engine and firing and etc, its best to do precautionary maintenance.



gl with the car in the future

Replace your spark plugs too, regular plugs are good for about 20,000K's
Platinum & iridium's last longer but more expensive.

$20 for a set of plugs and should improve things for your noticeably

From experience, i been using optimax for about a yr and suddenly my car start feeling sluggish, acceleration felt bad (like it doesnt want to go) after changing to BP ultimate car back to normal. maybe its jsut that, just give a diffrent fuel a try wont, hurt.

[Da1nONLY]

from my experience.. optimax rules! very responsive fuel =P

[evo201]

dun use the new extreme... as its not good for hondas made b4 04.. someone correct me if i m wrong...

plus u got a new intake and bein able to suck air more freely ll also reduce low end a lil bit.... someone belt me if i m wrong....


*puts on belt prove suit*

belt you are wrong irun it in my dc2r every since it was realesed. we have run my car on the dyno at work and the car runs better under load revs faster and makes 3hp more at the wheels

Honda have released a press statement saying that Shell 100 is not suitable for ANY Honda made before 2004. Check the Honda website and see for yourself...

Sure it runs better but is the motor going to last...

Vortex98, Mobil 8000 and Ultimate are better than Optimax.

Optimax extreme, I wouldn't bother on a N/A engine. Only for turbo would the benefits be worth the price.

[dc2typ35r]

they are all the same

its all in the head

[Bludger]

i experience this "HESITATION" too on occasion.
i think you should all forget about it cos its hothing wrong with the car, just the way it is

Dude your Dizzy may have cracked due to several reasons, i did mine when i washed and detailed the engine bay, and it (dist) cracked when the engine bay heated up with water on or in the dist, it was sparking and making the engine do crazy sh*%t, Clean ur injectors and put new plugs in too, she'll be sweet mate.
