Okay so I have a 98' Accord that I blew the motor in, so i bought another scrap car and swapped it's motor out with my bad one. I'm pretty good mechanically so I've tried basically everything I thought of, and everything i've seen online. The car will start fine with no hesitation and idles fine as well, but when you give it gas it will hesitate, and sputter almost before it gains rpms, and when I try to back it out of the garage it will stall unless I play with the gas pedal to keep the RPM's above 2000. I know there is a knock sensor broken in the back of the motor, I have one ordered for it, but my question is will that sensor cause all this? or should I be looking for other issues?
I've changed over the throttle body with a good one, along with the TPS sensor, IAC valve. and it had no effect on the car what so ever.
I've changed the plug wires, and checked the plugs, they were black ( running rich as expected ). I've changed the o2 sensor.
I have a complete tear down and rebuild manual for the car, it shows how to get the codes from the car, so I went ahead and got them off of it. I've cleared and re checked them a few times and mainly It's coding for Vtec Malfunction, and a MAP sensor at times. I need the car to get back and forth to work, so I'm in need of any guidance anyone can give me ASAP please, if you need any more information ask away. Thanks for any help you can give !
