richardc9052 Posted June 3, 2016 Posted June 3, 2016 Yeah, unscrew the dizzy cap and let it hand down with leads, unplug the loom from dizzy, 2x 12mm bolts, one on either side of dizzy (mark position so you can get timing roughly correct with new dizzy) Then pull the dizzy out. And push new dizzy in. You will need to line up the key to fit into the camshaft but that's it, just plug loom back in and screw the cap back on. Let us know how you get on Quote
NICKYG2X3 Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 Today I reset the ECU one more time.I changed the lambda for a Glanza lambda sensor from the civic one (unsure of condition though)Took out and cleaned the CTS sensor.Tightened all my intercooler piping properly and checked for any leaks.Fitted a .7 bar wastegate spring.Adjusted the ignition timing slightly to stop DETNow going to run this ECU in and see how it goes, if it goes bad then I'll clean the threads for the knock sensor and then fit and re torque it.If it doesn't then I'll burn the car down LOOOL I imagine this fixed it lol Quote
haggis Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 i noticed my cam cover doesnt seem to be fully in at one side.. sorry for a total noob question, but is the gasket on the cam cover just to protect against the elements i.e water n shit. not the rocket cover but the littke black cover at the side Quote
haggis Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 timing cover ** also a chap said he just removed dizzy and spun notch thay goes into cam 180 and it sorted his. that safe to try ? Quote
richardc9052 Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 Should only go into the cam one way as the slots are big And small to match big and small keys on the dizzy Quote
haggis Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 sound mate just got a light gun so away to check timing for 10degrees Quote
richardc9052 Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 Make sure to bridge te1 and e1 before starting the car to check timing. Keep bridged until timing is set Quote
haggis Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 yeh mate done that... no error codes and timing bang on...spark plugs done recently altho old ones were black. think im running far to rich on JAM ecu Quote
adzy Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 yeh mate done that... no error codes and timing bang on...spark plugs done recently altho old ones were black. think im running far to rich on JAM ecuMine was sluggish and misfiring occasionallyTook iridiums out and replaced with copper plugs, no problems since.My sard ecu runs a bit rich and iridium plugs don't like over fueling Quote
richardc9052 Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 Did you swap dizzy? Try another set of leads and check you coil as the plastic can split down the side. Quote
haggis Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 not swapped dizzy yet ...copper plugs might he worth a shot as i have noticed since puttinf iridums in that its misfiring on idle.anyone know decent copper ones ?part no ? Quote
haggis Posted June 11, 2016 Posted June 11, 2016 changed to copper plugs today.. no more dogey misfire in idle and 4 cost me 10 as opposrd to 37 Quote
5e colin Posted June 11, 2016 Posted June 11, 2016 not swapped dizzy yet ...copper plugs might he worth a shot as i have noticed since puttinf iridums in that its misfiring on idle.anyone know decent copper ones ?part no ? i run the ngk bkr7e gapped to 0.8mm my last set lasted 60.000km Quote
