96 Accord F22B1 Power Loss
I have a 96 Accord 2.2 VTEC EX with 182K on it. I have recently replaced the spark plugs and put in Bosch Platinums, changed fuel filter, oil and rebuilt front end suspension with new alignment. I have noticed that the car is not as peppy as it used to be, specifically sometimes it feels like I'm losing power in 4th gear at low RPM (2). BTW its a 5sp. I can't squeel tires from first anymore either, and it seems sluggish to respond to hard acceleration. I also don't seem to feel that extra juice at 5000 RPM from the VTEC. Nothing that seems major wrong,the car has no leaks and doesnt burn oil -more or less tip top, but does anyone have any suggestions as to where the power loss might be coming from and what I might do to get back that zip?
