    no power till 2500, power flutters and no speed-o

    okay so back round on the vehicle. 93 ex, did an H swap last year an they sold me a junk motor that shot a rod. put the f22a6 w/ stock ecu back in it. now this is what the car is doing. idle seems fine, but no power is there till 2500-3K then the power flutters and gets jumpy. you can literally go wide open from a stop and it will crawl. my speed-o is not operating. intermittently the gauge cluster will loose power in 2nd position but upon start its operational. I have NO cel/mil. I tried switching the connection between the vss and egr since they r same connector but nothing changed. I'm thinking a possable ground issue is in my midst. any help would be appreciated and I will update tomorrow night after working on it.

    Fix the speedo problem first - I suspect a faulty VSS sensor.
    Have you checked the cam timing and ignition timing?

    A ground issue could cause an issue as you said - I would check if the Thermostat ground has been re-connected after the swap.

    If at first you don't succeed, Try again. Don't give up too easily, persistance pays off in the end.

      Other possble issues would be faulty ignition components, a poorly functioning o2 sensor, a faulty ECU, or ignition or valve timing that is severely out of spec.

        02 worked on the H. I just did timing belt w.p. on the a6 but its not that bad at idle. I do need to set the ign timing. vss worked on the H as well. trans is m2b4. what all grounds are on the motor harness? thermostat and the main up fromt of the trans is all I can think of. I will look into the vss tomorrow. c if I can get a reading sum where.
