Alright, I have a 99 Honda Civic EX d16y8.
RPM gets alittle jumpy on cold start for about 1 min then settles down and idles fine all day and night long.
Another problem is the car stalls randomly at a stop light, it cranks over then dies right before engine catches on.
I have to let it sit for 1-2 mins then it starts up good then dies randomly at a stop light.
No CEL light on
Went to autozone and got my battery/alternator/started checked, Everything is okay~
This is what I cleaned today:
Replaced fuel filter
UPDATE *************
Went outside to check my fuel pump.... turned key half way to see if it purge and NOPE! nada! no noise from pump... checked fuel pump relay and it clicks, opened gas cap and told my wife to turn the key half way... no noise... called dealershop and they said it could be the main relay since fuel pumps dont really quit... is that true? what should i do?
New Spark Plug
Distrubitor was replaced in 2010
Cleaned Throttle body w/ new gasket
Cleaned IAC Valve
Kinda sprayed Crab cleaner around the intake manifold... no stutter on RPM
Driving me crazy!!!!
Please Help me!!!
