    skipping RMPs at part and WOT

    for some odd reason my RPMs skip when im at WOT or part throttle. i have no problems with it til i get to about 4k. after that the RPM gauge and the motor starts to skip. i replaced the cap, rotor, and plugs(from Spec A-II for those who know) but it was a '90. the car i have now is a '92 with an external coil. plugs havent been changed yet tho. would that be the problem? plugs and that external coil wire?

    I say inspect your plugs and wires. Also check to see if you have leaky lower tube seals. If you have any oil in the plug chambers, then that's most likely your prob.

          sounds very close to what is going on with my car.
          except my main relay clicks every time the car cuts out.
          does yours?

          only replaced the main relay so far (since it was clicking). no change.

          keep you posted on what i find.

          Bought from: Bisimoto, FuncOvrForm, HondaGuy1212, wed3k, Konigstiger, 1st2run, BillKisme, k-mart, benjerman112

                Did you try a higher octane gas? Do you have an F22A or an H22A?

                    man it kind of sounds like the icm in your dizzy! the other thing i would check is the i/p fuse box(the one in the lower left kick panel) there is a ecu fuse,i/g controls, and tach fuses. i have seen them lose connection and cause similiar problems. wiggle the fuses at the bottom of the fuse box see if it makes a difference
