Hey guys I just purchased my 2002 s2000 last week monday(28,600 miles)(car is honda certified as well). The only mods I've done so far are short ram intake, and strut bar which I installed over the weekend. The car has been driving great no problems at all. Well anyways this morning I started my car up and the check engine light came on, I haven't tried to figure it out so much, but I did get a chance to look under the hood before I got to work and everything looked normal and car drove perfectly fine. If anyone has any idea of what the problem is please let me know asap. I will try to figure it out after I get off work. All help is appreciated.

 

You'd have to get the code to find out exactly what the problem is, but if you recently filled up and/or smell fuel, then there's a good chance it could be a loose gas cap.

 

ok cool, I will go to autozone after work to find out the code. On lunch break I will check for loose gas cap or anything else that is loose.

 

If it is indeed a loose gas cap, then I've found that it helps to tighten the cap by grabbing it around the perimeter, rather than using that tab in the middle. Doing so gives a more snug fit.

Also, after tightening the cap, it takes 3-6 driving cycles for the CEL to turn off. This is all assuming that the culprit is actually a loose gas cap, of course.

 

Well let's just hope its the gas cap, if not then bump.bump. for any more suggestions..

 

This might be a hint.

 

Yea took a look at those already and everything seems to be looking normal, im going to lunch now so hopefully I will figure it out. I will let u guys know...

 

moving to UTH

 

My money is on the hoses for your intake.. CEL should read secondary air injection...

 

Ok guys went to autozone, got my car checked out and it was code 411. It said something about air injection, if anyone know's of this code, please let me know asap. I was thinking when I get home I should disconnect the battery and reset the computer, but then It would prb reset my radio and I would not be able to listen to it untill I got the code for it. Please any suggestions will help. thanks.
