Ok Guys I have a problem today when driving my car it started going crazy. At about 2700 rpm the tach just goes crazy and jumps all over the place and the car bogs a little but if you punch it hard the tach eventually straightens back out at around 4k and the car takes off like a rocket (well a slow rocket with a stock d16a6 that is). I think it is the Ignitor (Ignition control module or ICM)

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance-- Justin

check to make sure you plugs are tight going into your dizzy.

Like you said it might be the ignitor module, If you have a spare replace it and check.

My spare one got put into my other car cause of erratic issues with bogg down, weak spark. Replaced the module and all was good.

I think your muffler bearing is bad, Or it could possibly be that you need to rotate the air in your tires...Hope this helps!!!

Lol^^^ Maybe its your coolant, check to see if its green or orange its its not one of those two then you might as well burn the car.
