Today I was able to test the throttle body some more. The idle and WOT numbers are consistent. The only odd thing I noticed is that when the engine was fully warmed up and off, the % open fluctuated 0.4% without any input - at WOT the % open was consistent. I thought that must have been the...

As always, thanks for the reply and insights. I did clean the idle speed control screw and port. They did not look as bad as the one that Kaz posted in that other thread. The tip was discoloured, but there was no build up. I wiped it down with some carb cleaner. I used an inspection camera to...

I'm having a bit of a problem narrowing down an issue with my car that started a couple months ago. It’s a 97 NSX-T with a stock engine with an AP-X exhaust. There is no check engine light and no codes in the system. The symptoms that I have are a more than normal lumpy idle, intermittent...

You may find this thread and in particular this post from Kaz helpful for setting up the TPS after replacement http://www.nsxprime.com/forum/showthread.php/176554-Throttle-Position-Sensor-installation-issue?p=1739342&viewfull=1#post1739342

Sorry for the late notice. As long as there isn't snow on the ground I'd like to join the cruise.

I am still experiencing the issue. Its not heat related as it happened once or twice now at the beginning of a trip. After a whole day of checking connectors I found one rear wheel sensor that disconnected very easily and one bad wire on an O2 extension (wire just fell out of the connector). I...

The issue didn't occur on the way home even though there were some bumpy stretches during the drive. I'm not sure I'm at the arduino stage yet but I will look into it. Oddly, the issue did occur today - radio cut out, relays on the rear wall clicked, dash lights came on but the engine didn't...

Thanks again. I was talking through the issue with somebody here at work and realized that the events seem to happen only after the car has been run for a longer period of time (about an hour or more). I was wondering if any of those relays or switches that were mentioned might be more...

I believe this might be the case. I'm thinking that in most cases the interruption is so quick that I'm not seeing the effects. Just that one time as it was at night I could see that all the electrical components went out. I'll look at the ignition switch again. With the old part it had a very...

Thanks for the suggestion. I cleaned the ones that I hadn't done yet just in case. They didn't look bad but since it didn't cost anything I cleaned as many as I could find - even the smaller ones. I also checked the fuel pump resistor for bad connections but it seemed fine as well. -e

Hey Primers. I'm looking for some advice/help on a problem I'm having with my car. The problem is sometimes the car cuts out when I hit a bump. Sometimes I get a ABS/TCS warning (both lights on), sometimes that is associated with a loss of electrical power (no radio) and sometimes a full loss...

I can tell you about my experience and it might help. I have a 1997 which I think was the first year with the immobilizer. I was only given the valet key when I purchased the car. When I took it to the Acura dealer they cut a new key for me but only then they realized that they needed the red...

Not sure I would do that in a car with a passenger side air bag.

Thank you for the replies and suggestions. I checked the solenoid wire and confirmed that it is seated well and is getting 12V when cranking. When the car wasn't starting I did hear the solenoid click every time I tried to crank the engine. At this point I think I will look into getting the...

Just a quick update from last night. The car started each and every time I tried so I wasn't able to test anything under a failed state. I measured the voltage at the engine compartment per Frank's suggestion and got 12.5V. When I cranked the engine the voltage dropped to 10V momentarily and...
