Honda help...

[91nbtsi]

So, I figured I would help my mom out since she got screwed over by Corwin, long story, but she needed a new engine in her 1999 Accord. So, I get an engine with 24000 miles on it, swap parts over, put it in her car. I am having a hell of a time getting it to run correctly. When I hit the gas at all it just wants to bog like it is running out of fuel or something. Compression is at 175 psi across the board, fuel pressure is at about 75 psi, swapped distributors multiple times (so I assume spark is good), swapped throttle body with MAP and TPS sensor. The car starts right up, idles, but as soon as I try to rev it up at all it falls on its face.

Anyone has any ideas, I am sick of pulling my hair out. :mad: This was supposed to be easy money!!! heh

how is the altrenator in it???? i know you might be thinking what the fuck are you talking about.....but in the 99 accords for some reason when the alt. is fucked up......everything is fucked up.....

happened to a friend of mine and he just replaced the alt..and now it runs fine again.

although he has the 3.0v6.....if thats what engine ur talking about.

i dont think that this will effect anything, but that fuel pressure seems awefully high. If you are desperate, bring it by my buddies shop that I work at, we can figure it out for you.

Just swap the plugs for the map and TPS sensor around.

Thanks GSR!!! Like I said guys, I had checked everything.... I guess I never thought an automaker would make two plugs the same for two important sensors that are right next to each other!!! Damn Honda.

Thanks GSR, you ended my depression.
