GB. Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 Just noticed a flat spot whilst at low rpm, now I've changed all the usual suspects as such,plugs,dizzy cap etc but it doesn't want to go away,is there a simple common failure on these motors what can cause this, doesn't do in vtec but I don't use the vtec that often(is that the problem?) O2 sensor is high on the list at the minute but its a lot to shell out if it isn't that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prezes Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 I have to say it happens to mine as well. It's not very regular but it does. I was trying to observe if it happens in a particular weather or any special conditions but just can't seem to find any special circumstances.

GB. Posted September 1, 2010 Author Share Posted September 1, 2010 That sounds about right to be honest, its a fairly big loss of power when it does it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
