okay, so no matter what gear i'm in, once i hit 3000RPM's it feels like my car is back fire'n... and sputtering? can some one point me in the right direction? i thought it might be the timing but i'm just not sure.

it's got about 60,000 on the engine and the trans. it's a 96 honda civic. with the D16y motor. i'm gonna do my plugs. wires, and distributor this week.
It maybe Your Distributor or a Bad plug or Plug wire.
My Car did the same thing last Summer and My Distributor burn up on Me.
So You may want to start with a Rotary button and Distributor cap and maybe Plugs and Plug wires all at the same time
That way You get it all out of the way at one time and it will keep You from buying a Distributor right off the bat.
Well I Hope it Helps alittle and Good Luck Dude.![]()

thanks man. how long was it like that before your Distributor Burned up on you?
My Car (It was My '91 Civic Hatch) did it off and on for a Year or more before the Damn thing just gave in but it did make it that long.
So if Your going to do all that this Weekend then Great the sooner the Better.

"my honda is messing up" that goes together like peanut butter and ecoli.. lolz.. or casey and butt secs.. lolz.. j/k
there i did it.. what'd you think?
do what i'm about to do to mine..
burn the thing to the ground! lol... gl with finding the problem!
Make sure all your plugs are good. We had the same problem in one car and come too find out 2 wires where touching!! The car ran the same way as you are stating!!
If that doesn't fix the problem, than you might want to check your head gasket.. I know sounds funny.. i've had a bad gasket before and it was leaking oil all over the plugs. It did the exact same thing you are describing.
thanks for the help.
i know why you have this whole problem...it's a honda. lol j/k
You know better; next time will be a ban.
haha.
i jsut replaced my dizzy cap and rotary button yesterday and about to replace the wires and plugs when they get here
You know better; next time will be a ban.
yeah i gotta do that tomorrow. i'm just worried that once i do that and get my timing down... it's not gonna fix the problem.
well hopefully it should
You know better; next time will be a ban.
yeah hopefully. haha
safe mode FTL!!! sound like a bad dizzy
that would be better than my head gasket

You know better; next time will be a ban.

it's not my coolant lines. my buddy has a fetish with tighten every loose bolt, and there was a bolt by my dizzy that was loose ( which had to do with my tuning; due to my supercharger) and well that's what caused it.
