Car starts and dies

gordo · 03-03-2007, 04:51 PM

So I installed the AJP manifold, high flow cat and 3" exhaust. I have an Injen SRI and while all this was going on i had my ecu reflashed by hondata. I just got everything back on the motor and plugged in and now the car starts, revs to 2000 and dies. Any ideas? Things i could have done wrong? Thanks

Don't think it has anything to do with there stuff, anyone know anything about the Air Assist Valve, if i damage that would it cause the car to die?

Part number 8:

that's why i said contact them. they know their stuff more than any of us do and troubleshooting directly with them would be your best bet instead of us giving random answers we know nothing about that could cost you an eye and a leg

my intake fell off once and that made my car die at about 2k then die...

check that stuff... or check the sencor on the intake and stuff... i dono just try everything

***Zeuceone*** · 03-03-2007, 05:19 PM

do you mean because i dameged that will it cause the car to die.?

***fiji06si13*** · 03-03-2007, 05:20 PM

Check all connections see if you have a leaking Intake manifold.....
If not send Ecu back to hondata sounds like a bad reflash

Not good man not good at all

the plastic portion of the air assist valve feels loose, i don't know if a vaccuum leak from there would cause the car to die or not. Checked the intak side of things, all seems good.

Something is not hooked up right or ECU is Toast...........

I've worked on plenty of cars before and never been so stumped.

I think it's the Immobilizer System Indicator

there is a marker line on that part number "8", when you installed it back it should be on the right spot/or aline.

you dont have enough fuel pressure thats y the car wont start......

Air assist valve

When the engine is cold, the intake air bypass control thermal valve sends air to the injector.
The amount of air is regulated by engine coolant temperature. Once the engine is hot, the intake air bypass control thermal valve closes, stopping air to the injector."

Hope that helps :) Sounds like you need to re-install Number 8
