intermitted engine shut off
Hey Guys,
Forgive me if I didn't look hard enough for other posts. TLDR: car shuts off randomly and bucks randomly, despite replacing a bunch of parts. For years now the car would buck from 3k to 4k. I just assumed it was the tune because it's on greddy emange, and during this time I've replaced spark plugs and ignition coils. A few years ago I had a tps code, and the car didn't want to drive. I replaced it, metered it to open correctly, then my air pump went bad and I got the bypass chip (because it was cheaper and I mostly use the car for Autox and light track). Then next thing I know the car dies at every stop, I looked like a complete idiot who didn't know how to drive manual despite having the car for 15+ years. I read a thread about injectors, so I went to replaced the injectors and the car just had no power. Eventually I did a smoke test and found that I was close enough, it wasn't injectors but the injector seal had collapsed. Replaced the injector seals the car drives better but still every now and then the idle drops to about 200rpm and it will just shut off randomly when I put it in neutral and the bucking is still there in any gear leading up to 4k. I've replaced the map sensor, cleaned my IACV (even tested with another one), cleaned my throttle body. At this point after years trying to figure this out I'm at a loss. I'm hoping someone can guide me. Thanks! |
What ECU are you running now?
Thanks! |
Does it happen when the car is hot or cold or does it do it regardless of temp?

Have you checked what your TPS reading is when this is happening? I had issues with my throttle cable (AP2) from time to time and it would either hang open for a second and or close on its own.

It's stock ecu with greddy e-manage piggy back.

I bought a honda TPS and the ballade motorsports s2k one (cause the connection is pointed in the right direction, upwards?) I'm not really sure what to do next :(
