#31 of 98 Added fuel additive to 88' integra LS and now wont start by mike1jenn Aug 18, 2007 (10:21 am)
Hello, I put a generic fuel additive into my 88 acura integra yesterday and filled it up and drove about 1 mile, then parked for 24 hours. Today drove about 5 miles and it died at a stop light. Normally verrrry reliable and I attribute it to the additive..?? Any one else with experience with this? Ideas on where to start?   Thanks for your time.

Replying to: mike1jenn (Aug 18, 2007 10:21 am) depending on what kind of additive you put into your car and whether or not you put it in before you filled up or after. If you put it in before you could be running on straight additive hence why your engine would just turn off with not enough combustion. if you added octane booster or something of the sort then you could have over heated your motor and burnt or welded your valves shut. best thing to do is disconect your fuel line at the intake and purge the system. then fill up with some regular gas and dont try additive again.

#36 of 98 Integra GSR issues by blkracer08 Jun 21, 2006 (6:48 am)
I just bought a 2000 GSR from a dealership this past week and after a full day of driving it I had the check engine light come on. I took it to my mechanic and he said that he couldn't pull up any codes because I have an aftermarket ECU (Hondata S200) instead of the OEM ECU. Some other mechanics that work with him said that since I have a test pipe instead of the catalytic convertor that the car is recognizing an O2 sensor issue. Seeing how I have the aftermarket ECU is wont be able to overwrite the check engine light. They told me it shouldn't be a big issue and that it is perfectly fine if the car is running like it should. But at the same time I dont feel comfortable driving around in a car that has a check engine light on. IS there a way to correct this problem if there is a problem or should I just cut the wire so that light goes off? I really want to know how to find out if its the O2 Senor issue and how to correct it. If someone could be so kind to help me out that would be great."> Replies to this message: drbyers (Apr 02, 2007 6:31 am)
#38 of 98 No Spark '94 Acura Integra Type R by dragonflygirl Jul 02, 2006 (7:45 pm)
Hi! My son-in-law has an Integra Type "R". He was driving it, it was purring like the expensive kitten that it is. He shut it off, and it hasn't started since. It cranks but doesn't fire. My husband checked it out, and it's getting no spark. Question that we have is could it be the ignition module? Or the atual switch? And if it is the module, where is the module located? My son-in-law is an awesome guy, and we would really like to fix his baby for him. Help in this would be deeply, DEEPLY appreciated! Thanks!

Replying to: blkracer08 (Jun 21, 2006 6:48 am) test pipes are for people who don't give a damm about the environment and my ear drums.   get a high-flow catalytic converter instead. that should clear up your check engine light issues.
