studdering....
Alright me and my friends are talking bets cause we are out of ideas.
B16a turbo with internals blaa blaa bla.
So when i am driving and get into the throttle right before vtec engages the car feels like it goes into seizures. It cuts out starts sputtering. it feels like its ignition so i changed my plugs wires distributor. checked my timing it went away for a while but it is back worse than ever. even if I am not full throttle if i slowly bring it up. it just starts backfiring cutting sputtering. So the only other thing that i can think of is maybe a stuck injector or cracked. But it feels like ignition.
When this happens the tach goes nuts and it puffs out like a blueish smoke. Any ideas
?
Thanks
Nick

Re: studdering....
well the smoke i think is cause I have no sort of pcv system hooked up. I forgot to mention that it really smells like fuel after it happens.. Yeah I need to do a compression check. maybe cracked sleeve?? naw i dont think so. huh i am cluless.does a bad injector sound like it could do that. like it is getting stuck. Ohh and if the car is cold like if it has been running for like 5 minutes then it is fine for a few pulls. But if it starts to warm up then game over.
as for plugs I am running NGK's not quite sure on the heat level though. pulled the plugs they are all burning even. Where could I pick up some low heat plugs.

Re: studdering....
It is right around the time I start building boost about 4500 to 5000. I am going to try new plugs tomorrow again. :1
it cant be the dizzy I have gone through 3 in a month to try and solve it. every time they are new or rebuilds form shucks.
