Hello...my check engine light just came on I it returned with a CEL code of 70? Car is stock with the exception of header and 3" exhaust. Any idea why this is happening what can I do to correct this problem? your help is appreciated.

 

it's a cel or a ce light, you are saying light twice, lol

 

70 Automatic Transaxle

Which doesn't make any sense cause you have a manual car. Re-check the code. You sure you did it right?

 

yeah...I tripled check...seven flashes (same speed) then nothing after that...then it repeats the same seven flashes. This sucks....Thanks for the help though!

don't know if this helps but a few days ago, this happened months before also, while I was cruising at about 45 mph in 4th the car seem like it was slowing down slightly, rpm and mph guage didn't drop more than 100 rpm, but I could feel the gas pedal lose a little pressure before going back to the previous position.

 

Is your car a swap or is it the original motor?

 

it's a 00' integra type-r. I know the itr is infamous for the synchros and/or tranny going bad, could this be the issue?

 

you wouldnt get a check engine light if your synchros or tranny went bad.

 

I suggest rechecking. You sure it isn't 71?

 

I re-checked again and it still shows 70, seven same-speed flashes (automatic transmission) thanks for your help and input.

 

Long extended flashes = 10
Rapid flash = 1

You sure it isn't 7?

If it is 7, then it's your Throttle Angle Sensor.

Check your TPS sensor connections. Have you recently installed a VAFC or anything?
