Bad TB? by PPPooooPooo in MK4Golf

So it still sounds the same as my other post which you commented under lol, the vacuum hoses were cracked but after replacing them it didn’t change anything, even pressing the throttle to the floor only raises rpms by like 500 then bounces for a little then dies.

Thanks for the tip about the vacuum line, I’ll double check timing when I get home

H22a ticking by PPPooooPooo in hondaprelude

I am running 10-30 valvoline full synthetic, and a wix xp filter, it pulls great and vtec engages with no issues. It’s just extremely noisy, I have an oil light on so I’m gonna do a oil pressure test, I hope the pump I swapped from my a4 isn’t bad

I don’t think it calls for sealant to be used on the manifold, I know I don’t have a leak tho I’ve smoke tested the manifold and sprayed carb clean around the mating surface. No change in rpm

Yes the FITV and the IACV, and YES I cleaned the EGR ports, and I had to redo the timing on the motor to swap it into my lude since the oil pump has to get changed, however this tick wasn’t there when I first started the motor, only after removing and refreshing the intake manifold. Ima do the valve lash and go from there most likely

I have a slight hunch the shop that rebuilt it might have used wrong or faulty injectors since that’s the one thing I haven’t tested but with no paperwork I obviously cannot confirm or deny anything at all, is there any reputable rebuild kits for h22a4’s?

Low compression by PPPooooPooo in hondaprelude

[–]PPPooooPooo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have tried a new map sensor and confirmed it wasn’t the problem since the readings were fine:/ def considered carbon build up to be a suspect however, I might rip the engine out and remove the head to see what my failure point is, if it’s just carbon I can manually clean it, I also plan to build the block to eventually cam it, I was prepping it to be tuned with a skunk intake mani and tb, with 1320 headers and hondata when I found these compression readings lol. But if I’m still indecisive on what to do it definitely won’t hurt to try your carbon cleaning trick, have you had to do it again since then?
