Idling and Fuel Problems
Hello,
I drive a 1997 Honda Civic HB 3DR 1.4i (SOHC/Non-VTEC) and I have had a Tanabe Super Medallion exhaust system fitted (from downpipe) and a Tenzo R Short Ram Induction kit.
Now I am new to this game and this is my first car but I love Jap cars and I really love my Civic.
I am experiencing some problems though since I fitted the above items on - can anyone help me please as I am not mechanically minded!
1. Low speed driving (around towns) is not smooth - a feeling that the engine is 'pulling' at low speeds
2. Fuel consumption is higher than usual
3. Idling is erratic at times and not consisten
Can anyone rectify these problems or make suggestions? I have tried calling garages and asking for advice but no one seems to know!
Kind regards,
Kai
