turbo woes
oky doky. around 3-4k the car sounds like it is missing and bogs or at a certain throttle position. it also does it really bad at start when my oil pressure is highest. another odd thing, my catch can had gasoline in it!! so i pulled my spark plugs, most of them looked good, except for one had oil and gasoline on it. wtf? so i did a compression test and it was 180 across the board. ok. one day last week i noticed a lil oil around one of my spark wires by the valve cover. so i have a couple theories.
1. my fuel injector is sticking open around certain rpms, dumping ass loads of fuel
2. the seal on my vlave cover i fucked and leaking oil down onto my spark plug, causeing it to foul out and its not buring off all the fuel
or all the above, both may be working against me.
now, ur thinking, maybe he still has good compression but is burning oil. well, nope. oil level is perfect and absolutely no blue smoke and i still have power, when its not bogging
im thinking ill buy new valve cover seals and over night the fuel injectors to tuner toys to take advantage of my warranty, unless someone can shed some light on me...thanks for any help

sending my injectors back to tuner toys to get checked. and im ordered new valve cover seals from majestic honda. if thtis doesnt fix it, fuck it. ba built b18 is going in this summer and the d will be history.... until i get my buddies 90 hatchie
uberdata and its on a basemap, kinda. but it only started doing it recently and i hav been changing the plugs regularly. and to techme, dont worry, next year ill be over 400hp with a b, anyone looking for a d around january?
yes, it is, which originally i thought would be my car just being un tuned. but then i thought about it and wondered why it would just start doing it now after 3 months. thats when i pulled the plugs and found that one plug was dripping gasoline/carbon mixture. and, when im in the garage and rev the car to about 4k, black ozze shoot out the muffler and smelt like carbon.
once i beat the shit outta the car it clears up, like WOT the car cleans right out and will haul ballz. the injectors are going back to tuner toys on tuesday and they will be overnighed back. i will be ordering the new seals soon and new plugs. hopefully ill be able to get to the bottom of this so i can aleast have some fun with it until the big transition for next year
