20 Most Recent 1998 Acura Integra Questions & Answers

If you have already checked the spark plugs, plug wires, fuel injectors, and distributor and are still experiencing a misfire in cylinder 1 and 2, here are a few more things you can check:

1. Compression: Check the compression in cylinder 1 and 2 using a compression tester. Low compression could cause a misfire in one or both cylinders.
2. Vacuum Leak: Check for a vacuum leak by inspecting all hoses and fittings for cracks, damage, or looseness. You can also use a smoke machine or propane torch to locate any leaks.
3. Ignition Coil: Check the ignition coil to ensure it is functioning properly. You can do this by swapping the coils from cylinder 1 and 2 with the coils from another cylinder and see if the misfire follows the swapped coil.
4. Fuel Pressure: Check the fuel pressure to ensure it is within the manufacturer's specifications. Low fuel pressure can cause misfires.
5. EGR Valve: Check the EGR valve to ensure it is functioning properly. A malfunctioning EGR valve can cause misfires.
6. PCM/ECU: If all other components have been checked and are functioning properly, it is possible that the PCM/ECU (Powertrain Control Module/Engine Control Unit) may be faulty and may need to be replaced.

It is recommended to perform these checks in a methodical manner to narrow down the cause of the misfire. If you are not comfortable performing these checks yourself, it is recommended that you seek the assistance of a professional technician.

Hello Ramon Gutierez, Best thing to check would be the FACTORY DRAWINGS for your electrical system... FREE (w/registration) at BBB Industries... go to BBB Industries Premium Alternators Starters Power Steering Products Look in the middle of the page for TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS (TSBs)... and Circuit Drawings... Typically these are real manufacturer FACTORY DRAWINGS... ( PROPRIETARY information hence the need for their registration) Hope this points you to the Relay or connector that is bothering your safety...!! Happy hunting. Carnac the Magnificent

might be a timing issue. check if your spark plug wires are seated correctly also you might have a dirty fuel injectors. a good cleaning might help as long as they are not leaking.

Transmission is bad !

Are you doing all this work without a shop manual? It should have the info you seek.

Check hand book or try Google.

It may be that the gear in the starter that engages the flywheel is not operating and it is just spinning. This will make a whirring sound as you describe. If that is the case, a new starter is needed.

I believe that's a Speed Sensor issue. Diag: 1. Ensure mainshaft and countershaft speed sensors are installed properly. Disconnect mainshaft speed sensor harness connector. Using a DVOM, measure resistance between sensor terminals. 2. If resistance is not 400-600 ohms, replace mainshaft speed sensor. If resistance is 400-600 ohms, disconnect 25-pin PCM harness connector "B". Check for continuity between ground and 25-pin PCM harness connector "B", terminals No. 15 (Red wire) and No. 14 (White wire). 3. If continuity is present, repair short to ground in Red or White wire between PCM and mainshaft speed sensor. If continuity is not present, reconnect mainshaft speed sensor harness connector. Measure resistance between 25-pin PCM harness connector "B", terminals No. 15 (Red wire) and No. 14 (White wire). 4. If resistance is not 400-600 ohms, go to next step. If resistance is 400-600 ohms, go to DTC P0720 (FLASH CODE 9) . Check for loose PCM harness connectors. Replace PCM with a known-good unit if necessary. 5. Disconnect mainshaft speed sensor harness connector. Check Red wire for continuity between 25-pin PCM harness connector "B", terminal No. 15 and mainshaft speed sensor harness connector. If continuity is present, go to next step. If continuity is not present, repair open in Red wire between 25-pin PCM harness connector and mainshaft speed sensor harness connector. 6. Check White wire for continuity between 25-pin PCM harness connector "B", terminal No. 14 and mainshaft speed sensor harness connector. If continuity is present, check for loose PCM harness connectors. Replace PCM with a known-good unit if necessary. If continuity is not present, repair open in White wire between 25-pin PCM harness connector and mainshaft speed sensor harness connector.

Check the transmission fluid level. On your vehicle it should have a yellow end . All automatic honda transmissions are checked on a level surface with the vehicle warmed up and the engine OFF. Again the engine should be OFF and wait two minutes before checking .

double posted, but is a second question. why not read here. http://www.fixya.com/answer/answerpageslideview.aspx?thid=22755589&ctg=231&brd=6599 if the key line is bad (WE DONT GUESS) it can be 1 of 4 things do the test, and save huge money,

back up 3 posts and read my answer. http://www.fixya.com/answer/answerpageslideview.aspx?thid=22755589&ctg=231&brd=6599

That means you need new catalytic converters (usually) If you need further help, I’m available over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/justin_3ae27a9d61d6acd4

the window motor has gone out

Probably thermostat failure
