    Default help me with my 95 civic

    Ok my civic been having probem. When I try to start up the engine it take a while to get it started up. then when i rev it it make some weird noise i can't really explain it, but it sound like it sucking air and if i don't stop pressing gas it die (and that on nutral).. sound like it coming somewhere from the throttle. but if i press the gas slowly it will go. What I think is the tpi and the map sensor. People have told me it can be my spark plug, fuel filter but i'm not sure so please help. (hope i don't get u guy confuse)

    Check engine light is not on. I'm sry it very hard to explain. You can still drive the car but sometime when you gas it the car don't gain mph and you don't hear the motor rev at all (while the car is moving). And if i just park the car and rev it will make a weird noise threw the intake and the throttle and then it dies.

    its sounds like you have a vacuum leak from your throttle body area but not sure but that sounds like it from your explanation

    You probably need to clean the throttle body. It was a problem on my car for a few months and then I got it cleaned and it ran fine.

    I have clean the throttle body already but it still acting funny. and I am talking about the tpi sensor next to the map sensor.

    check and see if the TPS sensor is put on correctly and make sure that the TPS and MAP sensor wires arent hacked up in any way . . .

    Have you checked for a vaccum leak. Two people have asked you and still have not answered.
