94 Teg Cuts off While driving.

[ReckLessDC5]

Hey can anybody help with this..

I just had a new LS B18b1 slipped back into my teg a few days ago... Bought from (Dekalb Auto Salvage)

I brought a couple parts that it needed from members of IA.com, but here's my issue.

1. The Dizzy i bought was faulty as hell, and i'm not sure how long it has left..
2. The My Cars been sitting in the garrage for almost A year with a full tank of gas in it.
3. While i'm driving on the E-Way, The car will just go dead as if my alternator gave out and i had no battery in it. (Alt was also bought from a Member of IA.com), i also put a new battery into her...
When i stop for a few minutes on the side of the road and check everything out. i get back in the car and start her up, she hesitates when she tries to start and if the starter was going bad, and / or if she has no fuel in the tank.
But once she starts she's good to go...

My boys at the shop are telling me it could be my Dizzy, Starter and/or Fuel Pump.

But whats crazy is it happens while it's raining more then it does when it's dry outside.

It's most likely the dizzy one of my buddies just had the same problem a few days ago. So he just got a new dizzy and that was the problem.

[Cynical 1]

x2 on the dizzy. that is why it is worse in the wet.

[ReckLessDC5]

also can i have a lil rep power.... trying to get to the point where i can sell misc B18c1 parts

[wanggsticky]

it could also be a ground

[ReckLessDC5]

Naah everything is grounded.... Like i said, i can start it up, i can drive it for a while, but next thing you know. bam, Engine shut's off. all lights come on. i'll wait for a lil while then crank her right back up..,

yea acura or a auto parts not trying to b an ass but some shit u gotta do right its 95% the dizzy but if ur car sat for a year i would throw a bottle of gas treatment with a full tank run it out replace the fuel filter and run another bottle of gas treatment...walmart sells stp treatment for like 4 bucks for 3 bottles

yeah i would do something about the gas because it may cause a problem later down the road.

I'd def. lean toward the coil or some component within the distributor.

Go get the car check out before buying parts that you don't need

anybody that has a b series im sure has had this problem simple stuff dont need to be check out if u know what ur talking about

[Black4DrEK]

Ignition switch

[gsrcivic]

Ignition switch

if it is this itll get to where he has to hold the key in the on postion lol

[RBS]

the Ignition Control Module, inside the dizzy. a 20 dollar part, even cheaper with a discount

[mitch lab]

What everyone is suggesting might be the problem. But it might also be the CKP/TDC/CYP sensors that are inside. Might also be the dizzy plug, if the wires are corroded. Distributor can be rebuilt. Like I was saying before going out and buying parts and wasting money, get it check out if your not familar with it.

I fix these problem all the time, mainly for customer.

[ReckLessDC5]

thanks fellas...
For the guy who sais don't waste money buying parts i don't need.. (well i can always go out an impound some poor guys car for reckless driving, with no insurance and no registration) and use his car for parts....lmao but that would be f*ed up...

But seriously, as i was driving to work today, i had no problems out of her at all. i'm getting ready anyway on the 14th to just go ahead and put a B18c1 in her, but B4 i do that, i have another problem that i forgot all about..

My clutch master cylinder fluid keeds disappearing. but i can't trace a leak or anything. I looked underneath the driver side carpet, i looked at the cluth slave itself, and it's not greasy underneath the Master cylinder. with that being said, i looke in other forums about this, but it seems like i'm the only person to have this problem...

i know i flushed the system 3 times and everytime i flush it, after 3 days of driving, my fluid is all gone and my pedal touches the floor board and i have no pressure to bring the pedal back up...

What do you guys think about that, should i change the Master cylinder or should i change the line. i don't think it's the slave because this is another one i just got put onto this motor, and the last one i had with my other motor did the same thing....

[ReckLessDC5]

hey fellas, also can you alladd to my rep power.. need improvement bad.. need to start selling misc parts i got from an ITR

[Black4DrEK]

if it is this itll get to where he has to hold the key in the on postion lol

haha - you gotta earn that stuff...

or, pay the $10 seller fee and sell all day long...

as far as your clutch pedal, it is likely the slave - down on the trans itself. fluid is either squirting into the trans, or dripping off (why you can't see it). plus, it's only $20. and you can use it on your swap as well...

so your saying both slaves were bad and doing the same thing? i had that thought in mind that it was dripping into the trans, but i didn't think i'de have the same problem from a different slave you know...

[ReckLessDC5]

Done that along time ago

[Cynical 1]

didn't see you replaced the slave before.

i doubt you would have 2 bad ones in a row. check by the pedals on the floor as Scotsman said... if it is wet/moist, it's the master leaking...

have you looked at the reservoir on the master for leaks?

i'm not a professional but it sounds like your clutch master cylinder. mine went bad a couple months ago and when it did there wasnt any fluid anywhere at all...just stopped working one day. problem was solved after i replaced it.

yea, i've done that when i first realized the problem... i even done that today just to make sure.. this sucks bro!!!

when you noticed that it was empty, where was it leaking at, because i can't find any liquid anywhere, not even at the Master cylinder or around the plastic housing or Hose lines.... it just magically dissapears... whats crazy though is, when i fil it back up, the fluid is black as shit, even after it drains it-self and after i flush (bleed) THE LINE... IT'S GETTING BETTER THOUGH...

when it went out it just stopped working one morning....the pedal just went down and didnt get back up. the reservoir was full and didnt drip fluid anywhere while my car sat in my garage for a week. after i replaced it i had to fill it up a couple times but its been fine ever since.

Ok, see mines, my liquid just disapears and my pedal goes all the way to the floor board.... i keep a bottle of brake fluid with me just incase now... lol...

[ReckLessDC5]

OK, here we go again, SHE cut off on me agian today...
I installed the new Fuel Pump, thinking this would fix the problem. After installing the new Pump, i took it out in the sub-devision being that it was snowing and i could get some play time in doing donuts and drifting.. lol... anyway, after i finished playing i thought everything was ok with her until i pulled into my driveway and BAM!!! She cuts right off on me (after playing around for approximately 8 minutes) and the first light that apears on my dash is the check engine light... she took almost 7-8 minutes to start back up...
I Checked all Grounds, the Ground on the tranny, Engine head, and ground from the battery to the chassis.
#1 I Switched fuel pump, so i know it's not that....
#2 is to now check/replace the fuel filter,
#3 check/change the distributor
#4 Check/Change the Main Relay
#5 Check the ECU

if you guys got anymore idea's, LMK.
