I have been with out a car since September trying to fix it myself. Im no expert but knew my way around a car but this is just out of my hands. I cant afford to take a shop. I really need some help with this car.

Problems

Running like shit (it missing and running rich) sometimes its fine others it terrible

do a tune up

Axle or both need to be replaced ( i can do it just need some one to look over before i spend money i dont have)

ask mike (deev) to stop by, but you need an axle. if you change the boot, a cupple days down the road it will start clicking

I attached the motor mount in rear....but still cant get the rear tran mount stay to attached

thats odd. what do you mean it wont stay attached?

Car feels like it has no power.

a full tune up, if your running auto, you need to change the oil every 15k. new motor oil. use some lucas to clean the internals of the motor. also new fuel filter. and use some injector cleaner.

Smoke coming up from timing belt along with noise

you have to take it apart before you blow the motor! the timing belt is rubbing on something.

PLEASE someone help me.... i have had Icedplaya123 to help and deevergote(he just stoped by for a min or to) I need some help bad.
I really need my car back that way i can get to work and to school. Im paying insurance on this car to sit aswell.

i thought you didnt have a job?

Thanks Brian

later....andre

Wanna join the 17 club?

lol Wow that is alot of stuff messed up though. When that noise happens does it kinda screech real loud, then dies back down? And yea for your rich and missing problem, just do the usual tune up, if you havent already clean out your egr valve, IACV, check spark plugs, wires, ect...

You have too many problems to try and diagnose it yourself, when you clearly do not know enough. It's cheaper for you and more time efficient (if you really do have a job you can't make it to), to take it into a good shop and have them diagnose all the problems for you, but not fix them. Then, you verify their diagnoses (if you know how, or get a friend to that you trust), before you go spend the money to fix things. I'm assuming since you're on budget, prioritize what needs fixing first based on what's critical to saving the motor, then safety.

Mow lawns or something, do work for your grandma, etc to pay for the shop diagnosis.

Once you get your car running alright, use it to get a job and make money. If you don't, then sell your car because you obviously don't need it and it will just be a money pit for you in the end until you do need one.

yea i might have to thats what sucks..... This car is my baby and ran great untill the swap was done....evrything on this car worked perfect. Now i cant get it back all becasue some assholes that did my swap.....(i didnt have money or tools so friends of mine did it in his auto shop for free thought it was a good deal... i got it back and they messed everything up....the problems list was double this before i fixed most of it.....AGH i just want my car

**HondaFan81** · 01-08-2008, 01:07 PM

Before you spend money on any tune-up (if you go this route), like someone else here told you. You have a potential dead cylinder or cylinders. No tune-up will fix this and be a waste of money!

Get rubber-gripped pliers. Start and idle your engine. Pull one spark plug boot from the valve cover end at a time left-to-right and if one of the cylinders does nothing to the rhythym of the engine when you remove the spark plug boot, it's dead. As you remove each boot, the engine should stumble/almost stall.

Report back ASAP, if you really want help. Otherwise, take my advice on the previous post.

what exactly was the swap?

state your original engine/trans and new engine/trans.

years help.

hmm i did that swap and i dont have any problems, well until she runs. but when i swapped the head and intake mani, the only thing i had was a vacuum leak.

This swap should have no problems if done correctly. You would just need to get a PT6 ECU for the F22a6 obviously, as the original PT3 (f22a1) ECU will not work appropriately. Get the IABs/secondary runners working in one way or another, don't leave the lines open because of vacuum leak.

Anyhow, since you introduced a new motor it means new problems. This motor may have a dead cylinder as described for your "misfiring" statement in your first post.

You still have not posted up results regarding the pulling spark plug wire test for dead cylinders and since you don't have a job supposedly, you're wasting time posting on your thread instead. Why? Go do it and report back like I said!

Also, you should have posted up the history of your swapping a F22a1 to F22a6 in your FIRST post, also with the information that you did a tune-up already at time of the swap and included what parts you replaced!

You're wasting your own time and others by doing things half-assed.

**Bcozzi71** · 01-08-2008, 05:24 PM

well sorry about not doing the test but i was in school.............also i thought people new from my last thread that i did the swap and tune up.....i also have the pt6 in from my old motor.....which used the h23 intake...also now im afraid to start my motor till i fix the smoke and noise from the timing belt..........(since someone on here said i could blow my motor) .....once again sorry didnt get right back to you but i was in school....i spend my day doing research and trying to find answers to my problems then 3-almost 6 trying to fix it.... but i fix one thing and i see another problem....

well im gonna head back out now ...took a quick break to see if there where any updates.....

**ex_style90** · 01-08-2008, 05:45 PM

Well look at it this way, even with all your problems, your fixing them now. You wont have to worry about it happening again if youve done it the right way. C'mon cut these cars some slack thier like 15 - 18 year old cars, of course they will crap up at times

But yea, when you start the car and hear that loud screech then it dies down again, thats a sign of a bad cylinder head...

**Bcozzi71** · 01-08-2008, 11:28 PM

yea i still love my cb .....even though my dad says he is gonna plant flowers in it since it hasnt moved in forever......lol...anyways its doent die down or make a noise like that.....i think the noise is the a blt that came loose which in turn made the belt walk off a little making it rub and smoke.....and for the man that was asking about doing the test...when i pulled the plugs one by one it changed the idle everytime

**Bcozzi71** · 01-08-2008, 11:30 PM

PS since the car has been siiting so long i blackhoused the light made a custom grill cleaned it and started fixing my QP rust. Good old welding and cutting. And putting springs on it...so i guess its not to bad just want my baby on the road so i can get a job and drive again
