Hello,
I'm experiencing problems with a car i recently purchased. It is a 99 Civic Ex. When i bought it there had obviously been modifications done to the car as it was used for racing. The Radio and A/C/ has been removed as well as the cruise control. A new air intake has been installed as well as a stage 4 clutch. I know that a new muffler was installed and a friend who looked at it said it was likely the catalitic converter was removed. The mechanic I took it to said it was running rich because the computer was being "tricked" by the car. It throws me a code 43. The problems i experience are: fluctuating idle and loss of power/ major sputtering around 2500 rpms, in any gear, when the car has warmed up. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You.
