oil on the threads o fthe plugs, but i was told that could have been valve cover gaskets... the oil leak is the least of my worries cause it still ran with the oil burning haha.. i wanna fix the issue at hand. i noticed that oil drips out of the return and feed lines of my turbo, so ill go...

also, a tech at my work informed me to check my engine coolant temp sensor.. so i checked the resistance, its reading 1.8 kohms at a normal temp, when it should be reading 200-300 ohms. which means the resistance is sky high, which means its telling my ecu im running really, really fucking...

now if the headgasket was bad wouldnt i have very crappy compression numbers, normally 2 cylinders next to each other low while the others high?

well if i busted something internally wouldnt i have more problems then engine hesitating at certain times, wouldnt i hear stuff and it would struggle to start, and die more often? and i can tell im running rich since blackish grey smoke pours out when giving it throttle and im backfiring like...

okay so i had the engine hesitation issue and coulda sworn it was my TPS, replaced that tonight, still does it. and yes its calibrated perfectly. sooo here we go, im going to list all the symptoms as best as possible. remember, it started doing this after a couple hard pulls on the highway...

so if im showing .45 closed with a steady increase to 4.5-5 open... im good to go?

whoops, haha so .45 closed throttle, what should i be at full throttle and say half throttle?

oh alright, nevermind haha.. was adjusting it a pain? or did u just do the, rotate till 4.5V deal and it worked fine

so youve had this problem as well?!

so according to that site, that exact sensor will fit every single engine model listed??

they are bolted but with a rounded head so you cant take them out, people have dremeled a slot to gget a flathead in, and to adjust it, they supply the hardware and u bolt it tight slightly tight, connect the sensor with ignition on but engine not, and just adjust the angle of it till it reads...

i have access to a bunch of old throttle bodies off of D series, any way those will work?

alright, i just wasnt sure about the ECU or if that mattered at all or whatever, thanks for the answer and not the flame haha

Still new to the Honda world so i have a question, im going to pull the trigger on a new TPS and every one that i see says it will work with 1990 - 1993 GS B18A1... i have an LS and i believe it is the B18A1, is there any difference or will that one work just fine?

bumppppp

if it was my tune, wouldnt it have happened before yesterday? it randomly just started happening... and pulling my AFR off of my turbo timer im pretty sure it was around 12 when giving it partial throttle and high 13s - low 14s when trying to hold constant speed... im running real rich so...

bump/update... even tho no CEL was illuminated, i decided to jump it and check anyways and im getting 7 short blinks each time... so code 7 is TPS, throttle position sensor.. a couple questions... 1. why didnt a CEL illuminate? 2. does this mean i need a new sensor? 3. would this...

alright so everything was fine and dandy until yesterday, i did a couple strong pulls on the highway on my way home to michigan and it pulled good and fine, but ever since that ive noticed that upon slight acceleration and when trying to keep a constant speed im getting bucking, like engine...

okay so i redid the comp test on a warmed engine with a friend to help watch the needle.. these are the results.. cyl 1 = 135 cyl 2 = 155 cyl 3 = 150 cyl 4 = 165 cyl 1 def seems to be an issue... piston rings?
