My car is acting funny. The car bogs or jerks when letting off the clutch coming out of a stop. It only happens when coming out of a stop. I have to rev high (3000-3500) for it not to bog.

Would could be the problem?

Also, when going semi WOT or even WOT, then when changing gears, or bringing it back to neutral, the rpms stay high and dont come down or are REALLY slow in coming back down. I believe it could be the throttle plates sticking but just making sure thats the problem right?

TIA

 

You got the FD back Rob?

 

Yeah, physically. But the heart of the FD is still not there

Idk anymore.

 

Bump for the morning crew.

A little info so you guys have an idea.

TB coolant bypassed
Stock ecu
IAC has been changed, TPS in spec
New DP, new o2

 

i have the same problem every once in a while. also when its warmed up, but ive only been driving it for 10min. when i try to boost even a pound it just stops at 0lbs. than when i let off the gas, it makes this weird burping noise. but than when it warms up its fine. and i have stock dp. with 100k miles. dont ask me y.

 

Hmmm its weird.

I took the car out this morning, wasnt really fully warmed up and it bogs even more. On partial throttle, cruising on the throttle, the car just bucks like its running out of gas. But then when warmed up, its normal but the bogging off a stop still remains.

Im lost with this car now.

 

mine will usually clear up. if you hold it at 3k for a few seconds. or if you just ride the bogging out. it will usually clear up after a couple minutes of driving at 3k +.

also mine hasn't really been doin it any more after i changed the vaccuum hose to the map sensor, check that, mine was cracked.

 

Def not the map sensor.

Gonna add a couple more grounds and see what happens. Was told it might be the ISC too. I might just change that anyway and see what happens. Who knows anymore.

 

yeah, mine had hard starting issues also when it was warm. idk. i tried to trade it for a civic. so i got the civic for a day than the dealer wanted it back, he said my car was missing to back int. pieces and he didnt want it. but he had his mechanic check it out. whatever he did. it doesnt have a hard start anymore. free tuneups rule.

 

Yeah the car has no problems starting hot or cold, i know its something minor.

And with that said, i was checking my car during my lunch break cause i was anxious to find out what could be the problem, i fixed my stalling problem, now the bogging problem occured.

Well i found out my air pump is not even connected (well it is but i guess the harness is shot or the pump itself is shot cause i see the clutch not moving during idle which makes me think why it would bog under 3k?? Thats the only thing i can think of. And i also found out that my CEL is on, def has to be the air pump.

Does a non working airpump with the stock cat cause some bogging issues?

 

wait...i i had this same problem when i wired up my a/f gauge...somehow it was grounded wrong and it shorted the connection of the sensor to the ecu...with bad o2 sensor reading it threw a cel and ran EXACTLY like ur saying...felt like someone couldnt drive stick was driving

 

Yeah, i dont know whats causing the car to run like this.

The fact that it has a CEL, or the fact that the airpump isnt connected, or the fact that the CEL is on because the airpump is not connected lol.

I gotta check that out when it stops raining.

 

Well i ghetto rigged the airpump, still doesnt turn on when supposed to. It will just go on and turn off intermittenly, even at idle. AP relay is good.

I have a CEL with 3 codes, 12, 18 and 40.

Will the TPS be a cause for bucking when coming off the clutch? I remember coming home from the shop, the car would buck on throttle. Then when going WOT, the rpms would stick. Usually if you go WOT, then drop to neutral, the rpms should drop down. My rpms stay up, then go down very slow like the throttle plates are sticking. IS this part of the TPS problem?

And what does the pruge control solenoid do?

 

have you checked out your throttle cable condition?

do you have cruise control?

 

Rob: glad you have the car running again, i talk to you in IM sometime today

 

Car has cruise control.

Throttle cable can be a cause for TPS misreadings?
