Help me everyone please. I was driving the other day fine and dandy and then randomly my check engine light comes on.my flex pipe broke so I assumed it was my o2 sensor being that it's not getting the right gasses. Then my car idled weird I took of in 1st and my car hit 3k rpms and sounded like it was redlining and it had no power I shifted. Once again did it at 3 grand all the way home and it has no power. I checked plugs wires coil vac lines all good I heard air in the back of the block I sprayed card cleaner and it killed the car. My dad said Im gasket so I had him change it (I work to much he has more experience) any how he calls me last night says it's done I started it it idled like crap I drove off did the same thing had less power than ever before and hit 3 grand and wanted to shut off. What could it be. This is my dd and my baby. Any info is appreciated.

Put a scanner on it and see what the code is. That would be a big help to us in helping you.

for the OP. .manual? sounds like the clutch is going out. For the new intake gasket, now you should probably adjust the base idle if everything has been done right. other than that you need to elaborate more.Last edited by illinois_erik; 11-21-2014, 09:30 AM.Comment

Ya it's a 5 speed f22a1 it did it before the new gasket I am just hoping it's not the intake manifold it's self because there's not many cb7 parts here with this motor. Quick question tho is the gasket for the a4 or a6 the same as the a1. Reason Im asking is my dad told them it was a 92 honda accord ex 2dr. We'll in there counter it says it's an a4 or a6 not a1 so idk if they are interchangeable. And if it is the manifold itself, what other engine can I unbolt my and bolt the new one to not adding to much stuff.Comment

You don't need to be a jerk. I didn't think about that. I'm used to newer cars. I'm just trying to help.Originally posted by illinois_erik View Post

the gaskets at the cylinder head interface are the same all around. the A6 has IABs. Try spraying around again and see if the leak has actually been fixed.Originally posted by cb7dd View Post
if your intake is cracked, you can use any of them you can get ahold of, the ones with IABs will need a little wiring added if you want to use that function along with the supporting ecu. chances are though the metal is fine, theres more gaskets on the IAB intakes, the vanilla a1's have 3 gaskets...Comment

if needed..also if you had leaks to begin with and then you got everything sealed up, youll want to adjust the idle to make up for when it was leakingLast edited by illinois_erik; 11-21-2014, 10:42 AM.Comment

it had a valve cover leak i changed it and all the seals it has a broke flex pipe right past the header and its has a cai the guy i got it off of said he redlined it a few times at the track would that have messed it up? i personally think its a vaccuum some were.
Update - got it fixed lol when my dad changed the valve cover gasket he put the plug wires back wards lol always double check your plug wires. she ran like crap with the plug wires backwards. i was about to change my fuel filter, pump, intake. lol one simple fix saved me $$$$ thanks for all the help guys.Last edited by Joey GT-R; 11-22-2014, 09:23 PM.Comment
