absolutely NO disrespect... but it always boggles my mind when people come here asking questions, about the motor that there (insert friends, dad, uncle.. etc..) built at his super delux ultra fabulous race car making shop... maybe he could look at it for you??
i agree fully... its at least the speed sensor.. thats probably whats causeing the speedometer to not read and as stated vtec to not engage.. but would that make it run rich??? not too sure about that...
side note... it also amazes me that people continue to drive there cars when they are in this state..
