#571524 Steering Wheel And Starting Issues

Posted by andrew.rios94 on 16 January 2015 - 12:38 PM in 1G CRX

You can check to see if the injectors are actually firing by putting a screwdriver on in and when it cranking see if you hear a click.

Injectors could also be clogged.

And I think that your steering wheel is just coming apart somehow.




#571513 Speedometer Question

Posted by andrew.rios94 on 16 January 2015 - 02:45 AM in 1G CRX

Yes, I would like to know what this is aswell.

 

At speeds 65+ it starts to read high. It does not fluctuate though.




#571512 Steering Wheel And Starting Issues

Posted by andrew.rios94 on 16 January 2015 - 02:36 AM in 1G CRX

I have had issues with stalling and not being able to start again on more than a few occasions.

 

Start with the basics just check to see if there is spark and fuel it has to be one or the other

 

For me it was the PGMFI ground at the thermostat.

 

And on a different a different occasion the clip that locks the connector for the injector resistors was broken so that came loose.

I addressed that with a ziptie which was not the best idea as about a year later it messed up the wires.

I was able to hold it horizontally by the short piece, solid.

And I never finished it because I found a good one at the junkyard. But in will have to do my fenders/nose panel soon.



#569324 Offical Exhust Thread!

Excuse the awful grinding noise, I need a new fan.

Got it! The connector for the resistors for the injectors doesn't lock anymore so it just came loose.



#568910 Died Again.

Posted by andrew.rios94 on 24 August 2014 - 03:30 PM in 1G CRX

My problem is actually my injectors aren't firing. Dead ecu? Would explain the ecu fuse that went.



#568898 Died Again.

Posted by andrew.rios94 on 23 August 2014 - 10:01 PM in 1G CRX

I was told this could be the ignition switch.
Is that possible if I am getting both spark and fuel when cranking?



#568880 Died Again.

Posted by andrew.rios94 on 23 August 2014 - 11:02 AM in 1G CRX

Bad contact at the jumper?

I haven't checked yet, but the pump is coming on.



#568871 Died Again.

Posted by andrew.rios94 on 22 August 2014 - 09:43 PM in 1G CRX

My B16 EF had terrible main relay issues which were almost exactly like you are describing.  They're known to go bad in older hondas and just to be intermittent.  I ended up keeping a spare on me at all times.


My relay is bad. But it's jumped so I don't think it would be a problem?

Main relay intermittent failure.


My relay is jumped.



#568866 Died Again.

Posted by andrew.rios94 on 22 August 2014 - 08:52 PM in 1G CRX

Sunday my 85 Si died at a red. That ended up being the 15 amp ecu fuse. I don't know why it blew. But I popped in another and we were good.

Up until yesterday we were good all day until right after I gased up (I don't think it's related) A few miles later the car died while driving but I was able to start it back up again. A few minutes later she died again and I pulled to the side of the road. She would crank but no start. I let it sit for a while then she started right up. And the same thing happened once more before I got her home. And this morning everything was good until after a few short trips. And now she won't start at all.

I was thinking ignition control module but I just checked with an old plug and there was spark. Pump is working. Fuse is still good. On Monday fuel pressure was at 41 psi I don't know if anything has changed since then.
Tomorrow I will check everything over. But any ideas on where to start?



#568786 Bad Airtex Pump?

Posted by andrew.rios94 on 18 August 2014 - 05:40 PM in 1G CRX

Thanks. I got it running. Hooked up a fuel pressure gauge, 41 psi. Exactly where it should be.

At the fuel pump there's only the two connectors. The fuel pump/fuel injection is grounded on the thermostat housing.

The problem was the ecu fuse and the ground at the thermostat.



#568765 Bad Airtex Pump?

Posted by andrew.rios94 on 17 August 2014 - 09:42 PM in 1G CRX

Where and how are you grounding it?


What do mean. The ground at the thermostat housing?



#568763 Bad Airtex Pump?

Posted by andrew.rios94 on 17 August 2014 - 09:13 PM in 1G CRX

85 Si and it died at a stop light. Car was running perfectly before up until then.

I assumed it was was the fuel pump. I've been waiting for it to die on me (Airtex) I could still hear it I just thought it wasn't giving enough pressure.
Replaced it with another airtex only because it was in stock and I wanted it running asap while I then have time to order a quality pump.

Is it possible for a brand new pump be bad?
There is spark.
Relay is jumped so that's not an issue.
Ground at thermostat is fine.



#568294 Fast Idle Valve.

Posted by andrew.rios94 on 31 July 2014 - 05:58 PM in General Posts

Is your idle jumpy or high?
I just put piece of plastic in mine for now until I can get around to finding a replacement or fixing it. Idle is solid.

I 'd definitely be interested!



#567784 86 Si Idle Air Valve Control

Posted by andrew.rios94 on 14 July 2014 - 08:44 PM in WTB

I need the fast idle valve too. Is yours high or jumpy?
For now I just put a piece of plastic in there and my idle is normal again.

#565808 Sanden Bracket And Hoses

Posted by andrew.rios94 on 28 April 2014 - 09:16 PM in WTB

I have a full AC setup from compressor to harness.  I'm not entirely sure what you are after though.  Have any pics by chance or a diagram?


At work so can't get any pics right now.
But if that setup is with the Sanden compressor I'm interested in the bracket that holds the compressor to the block and the 2 hoses.



#565805 Sanden Bracket And Hoses

Posted by andrew.rios94 on 28 April 2014 - 05:53 PM in WTB

Whenever I go to a junkyard it's always a Keihin, no ac, or some weird non factory setup.
Summer is coming and I need cold air!
