sohcVTEC-E Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Well. Last night I was driving home from our hang out spot and I came to a red light and I down shifted as I always do to slow down. When I hit first I didn't let the clutch out and it seemed like the clutch was grabbing ever so slightly beacuse the car was jerkish (clutch was fully disengaged mind you or pedal was fully to the ground) Any ideas? I thought maybe I need to bleed the hydraulic fluid maybe? Another thing. My engine doesn't like the P28. When I put it on I drew a CEL and it idled at about 200 RPM. When I got on it though it was sweet as f*ck. I think I need to play with my timing a little bit. I don't know... school me guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EH6TunerDaniel Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Check clutch fluid it might be leeking or just needs to be bled. Dunno about the CEL though. Do you mean you wrecked it? How? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sohcVTEC-E Posted July 25, 2006 Author Share Posted July 25, 2006 I beat it lol. He pulled in the right lane to try and merge around me but I didn't let him! I will try bleeding the system tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sohcVTEC-E Posted July 25, 2006 Author Share Posted July 25, 2006 Okay guys, pulled the codes this morning and got primary o2 sensor heater. It's because my secondary o2 sensor isn't threaded into the hole... lol. The wires aren't long enough to reach the hole. I will extend the wires when I get a chance. Thanks for all your non help on the ECU guys. But thanks Dan for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cranny Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 lol@non help. thats good one. where does your clutch grab when letting it out(contact point)? it should be approx halfway. cant go wrong with hydro really as far as adjustment goes (up until i met B16B anyways , hahaha). does your clutch slip at all under full throttle?

sohcVTEC-E Posted July 25, 2006 Author Share Posted July 25, 2006 Clutch doesn't slip. It was grabbing about 2 inches off the ground but I adjusted the pedal height so it's half way now. My clutch doesn't slip at WOT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cranny Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 sounds like its ok to me. you shouldnt be downshifting into 1st anyways. dont put it in 1st till your stopped. not good for them , and no need really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TS John Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 That's a good point, cranny. Haven't you ever noticed the ungood noise your transmission makes when you put it in first whilst thou art still in motion? Basically, first gear is only there for moving from dead stops if you ask me. If you're moving at all, only downshift down to second. Edit: Why don't you just throw it into neutral or hold in the clutch (or both) for slowing down to stop for a red light? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sohcVTEC-E Posted July 25, 2006 Author Share Posted July 25, 2006 Alright. I will just use first for starting from a dead stop. Thanks guys. I'm off to extend the wires for my o2 sensor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sohcVTEC-E Posted July 27, 2006 Author Share Posted July 27, 2006 Figured it out. The O2 sensor needs to be converted from 5 to 4 wire. It was a breeze. Did it last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
