my 7 jumps when i let go of the gas
every time i let go of the gas my 7 jumps. it keeps jumping/ hopping untill i press the clutch or pop it into nutural. this only happens in 1st, 2nd and sometimes 3rd. this dosent happen in my 92 prelude. for example when a car is in front of me and i just tke my foot off the gas my 7 just jumps/ hops. this doesnt happen in the prelude i have once again. my 7 is a 87 and all stock. some on pls help me.
thanks |
It's probably your "dashpot". Mine did it too. All it takes is a 10mm wrench to adjust. It's behind the manifold (fire-wall side). It looks like a silver-dollar, kind of. Just adjust it so that it doesn't stay in contact for very long. If you've got a Hayne's manual it contains directions for it's adjustment.

Possible TPS needs adjustment?
Just a thought -Markus R |
I agree with the dashpot thing, the asshole who had my car before me removed it, so my car bucked every time, I just learned to release the gas slower.

As far as I know, all FC's are like this. I think it's just the nature of the car.

i have the same problem and even if i let go of the gas slower, it still does it. it seems like theres a certain point on the pedal at which it happens

I took mine off, and have not driven the car (I stripped the TB and ported it) but have not driven it yet. I hope mine isn't an ass, or the dashpot will be back on :)
Could be the TPS... if its not getting an accurate reading... it won't cut fuel at what should be read as 0% throttle. |
I don't have any dashpots and I don't have any bucking issues (except under 2krpm in 1st gear, which is to be expected) Generally it's caused by the TPS getting a faulty signal.
