2000 EX Idling Too Low
#14
I went to Advanced and had them check the CEL codes and got all kinds of misfire codes. I told the guy what I've done so far and he recommended a crankshaft position sensor. Is this good advise and if so what kind of sensor do I have on my D16y8? 18mm diameter or 20??

So far thank you everyone for postin your thoughts. Yea I know I shouldve wrote down the codes before but I got em now. I went to a mechanic today who hooked up a Snap-on computer thing the my car and couldnt get any CEL codes to pop up after he cleared them. But before hand, like I said before, he did read all sorts of misfires, before clearing them. The CEL stayed off for a while but then came back on so I took it to autozone to have the codes read. Talk about running ****ty...almost like it was out of tune. Then upon coming home I couldnt get it to stay running w/o throttling it about 2500. The codes I got: P1399, P0300, P0304, P0303, P0302. A couple people said that I got bad gas and the injectors are clogged. Another guy said the cat converter is bad. I know nothing. PLease help.

Sounds like a bad coil or ICM inside the distributor, assuming the plugs, wires, cap, and rotor are fine. Could also be a clogged fuel filter or bad O2 sensor. For the latter, try unplugging it to see whether the problem goes away.
