The pig that never dies...hahaha

That Civic of mine, timing eblt was slipping, so I got it put on by a shop and spent the money (no air tools or patience with the guy that was doing it for $60 bucks)...so I get the thing back today. Guess what - still bad! Doesn't slip timing anymore. But it is so odd how it runs. It took all day to throw a Code1 O2 Sensor, and it runs Rich - kinda, but feels lean and out of time, like hesitating really bad. And here's the real trick about it - when it idles it reads 0 rpm, needle falls and rests - can't even tell it's running????

I am just trying to figure out what is happened to this thing.

When I accelerate, I have to grandmother it, because it will hesistate and try to bog out, almost feels like an acceleration limiter...hahaha.

Swapped stuff already, but I jsut thought I'd share this with you guys. I must have the worst luck with this Civic.

It's wasn't but one problem, but it's been 4 now that have stopped it from being completely functional! Talk about a compound problem! Gees!

Good god! It's got to be an igniter..has to be. I seen the rpm's jump today and whip around the tach a couple of times. I also have the injectors shutting off!!! I get the engine check light to blink in a flash of an eye when the engines put under load of any kind - and it shuts off the main relay shutting of the injectors causing a string of clicks from the PGMFI Main Relay!

Something is really F'ed Up! I can easily say it's the ingiter or the source of the RPM's rear - which I am quite positive is the igniter but I need to check the schematics (sounds dum doesn't it). It may also be a short in the wiring somewhere ??

The other thing that supports this is that when idling the rpms fall to 250 - which is the lowest readable rpm on the tach - and you can't hear the motor at all - seems like it's dead to the world! Really spooky seeming too.
