It acts like the old vintage engines did when the vacuum advance units got a leak in them. I have a D15b I already changed plugs/wires/distributor/cap/rotor and fuel filter and ran a couple cans of injector cleaner through the tank. I was gonna buy a Map Sensor but the durn things are $260 at AutoZone! Geeeeez I dont wanna sink that much unless Im sure I need it. I get no eror codes on the ECU. Any ideas from all you Civic Dudes and Du-dettes. :0)
if you figure it out, and it does turn out to be a MAP sensor, I have one I could sell to you for a butt load less than 260 bucks
