dumbass question...or so i think
ok, ive done a lot of research and have come up short. anyways, i just got a b18a1 into my civic, and the ******'s running hella rich. so rich in that carbon is going by somewhere, and turning my oil blacker than ----. the rings seem to be good, because its not burning blue smoke. it guzzles gas like no other. im sick of this ----. the only thing i can think of is it beiong a bad dizzy. and to top it all off, the ecu is throwing 5, 6, 10, and 24 but not going into limp mode. i take it back. i got on it getting on the freeway, and it threw 43, then went into limp mode. reset it, and 43 went away. ------- weird *** hondas.

Re: dumbass question...or so i think
FIX the codes. well 5 is a map code probably making it run rich, also 6 is a coolant temp also will make it run rich,10 is a IAT code, I dont see a code 24? and 43 is a fuel supply code. so pretty much id start off fixing 5,6 and 10 haha

Re: dumbass question...or so i think
I have 5 codes and my car isnt running right,whats wrong,LOL.
Fix the codes man just because it can drive doesnt mean its right. code 5 and 6 are dooozey's in the fuel department
and 43 is a result of a shitty runnin car

Re: dumbass question...or so i think
Honestly it sounds like you have more than a few plugs swapped around on the wiring harness. Try swapping the map and tps sensors around and see what that does (if it clears out the fuel issue), and as far as the IAT sensor goes...well, I know the coolant temp sensor is the same plug, and I think there's another one that fits that pattern as well on the back of the block.

5 is probalby because of vacum routing
6 you need to replace your coolant sensor, its the one on the back of the block i think
10 is your intake air temp sensor on the manifold
i dont know what the ---- 24 is
and 43 is something fucked up with your fuel supply, swith out your fpr, check fuel pressure, clean your o2 sensor, and check for vacum leaks
i might have those sensors that are bad, if you want to come pick them up you can have em
