cb7 problem
ok i got a 1993 honda accord lx if i try to get on it it wants to hesitate untill it gets to 4grand then it stops and gets speed back also when i get to 4 grand it starts smokeing and it fills my car up with smoke and smells like stright gas if anyone can tell me what needs to be fixed/done thanks in advance
what color smoke? white or blueish? whens the last time you did a tune up?
black
ouch. whens the last time you had an oil change etcOriginally Posted by pureplayer
had the same problem check your spark plugs for oil
i just did an oil change and yes oil on my plugs
ooh thats bad dude...i had the same problem. my car leak all over and i didnt know where the crack came from but what i did was just trash the motor and got a new one like my f20a. its $580ish(w/o tranny) at nad auto in jimmy carter they are real reliable. juss keep your tranny and swap the motor.
i took pics of the swap on cb7tuner.com let me give u the link b/c u can see from my old motor of how bad it was. (sorry for the poor quality but when i pulled my old motor out it was filled with oil)

I don't wanna give you misguided info, but check your spark plug seals. When was the last time you replaced those. You might have fouled your spark plugs. Change seals get new spark plugs. If that doesn't help, I think you might have a bad piston ring or bad head. These are just some suggestions. I hope someone with more knowledge chimes in.
I'm oohxchun bro. When his f22 did that, we tried changing the plugs and all seals, didn't work for long. We just decided to swap the motor out completely. A comparable swap is the f20a dohc motor or another f22a. Straight drop in. If your motor has a lot of mileage consider that option.
Just thought of another possibility. Are you positive that its oil on your plug, like liquid oil or just burnt plugs? Your symptoms of hesitation at 4k and black smoke also points to your car running rich.and a black tipped plug also indicates this. Is your check engine light on? Reason I'm asking is that this problem my lie in a bad or old o2 sensor. They usually go back after a 100k miles or so. Its good practice to replace that to keep your car running in top mpg conditions.
im alost 90% sure its bad rings if theres oil on the plugs. time to get new piston rings! my buddy had the same prob. personaly i would get a new motor. to bad i just sold one.
reps kimikalz considering hes the master mechanic of my cb7
i rep myself cause i can. lol.
i wish i could.... lol
well its in the shop now im geting new rings for the f22a1 and im also changing the head to a 99 2.3l v-tec head
nice hopefully it will work out to the best. wish you g/l
thanks
not being a di.ck or anything but your not gunna get a whole lot of gains out of the vtec head. your current f22a1 head flows better than that vtec head.
Lol if you think a non vtec head flows better than a vtec head.
Anyway If you have oil in the spark plug tube, you need to replace the seals, and valve cover gasket, change wires, and plugs and go from there.
The EMPIRE
and yes it will run beter with the v-tec head and any head is beter than a sohc non vtec head my buddy had the same set up and his pushed 160hp it always runs faster when you frankinstine it
plenty of people have done it on cb7tuner and say its a wast of time. personaly i dont care what you do its not my car but im just saying thats what ive heard and ive done a head swap on my f22a1 so i think i know a little bit of what im talking about.
and another thread
http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthre...=f23+head+swap
yes but my head is screwed i got the whole top half of the f23 head,intake manifold,injectors every thing for $50 and the cheapest i found just the f22a1 head from the junk yard was 150 so why not make it a v-tec
then all i have to say is get the head resurfaced with some minor head work and then put it on. i never realy like the idea of drilling into my block. but i just wanted to give you some info on what your doing wasnt trying to be a di.ck cause ive had 3 cb7s and done a head swaps before.
what do you mean drill into my block
you got to run the vtec oil line somewhere. but now i think they have a new thing where you can by like a thing that goes on with your oil filter so you dont have to or something like that. thats why i never put a vtec head on my car. thats why i did a h23 head swap at one point.
from what my mecanic said is that F&H series dont have to drill in to the block
Maybe so, but putting a vtec head on a non vtec block is different from a non vtec head onto a non vtec block, like whatever210 said he did. I've always heard you had to drill in too, but maybe there is a new way to do it.
i already have a oil line comeing from the back of my motor it is what oil psi gage is hooked to
^ you need that oil pressure sensor there. vtec runs of oil levels, temp, and oil pressure. that sends signals to your ecu and your ecu tells you if your oil level is to low if something is wrong. if your motor is not warmed up then vtec wont kick in, same as oil level. if its to low or to high then it disrupts the flow and wont let vtec kick in. like if you dent a oil pan on a vtec motor it disrupts the flow and causes problems for you vtec. like i said i think they make a thing that goes on your oil filter now so you dont have to drill into the block but thats just my
