Well, long story short, I found out a few months ago that it's trying to advance the ignition by 19~ degrees, or something to that effect. Guy who diagnosed it didn't know why, though, so I just kinda left that alone since I'm really not qualified to mess with that shit.
You anons got any ideas? The only thing I've been able to think is that it's either trying to modify the ignition for a VTEC that no longer exists in that car, or that one of the sensors is bad.
>>

That doesn't sound right, not even B or K Frankenstein's do that if Vtec isn't connected

That would occur if I was idling in the same spot for a short while and didn't have the foot on the brake pedal. The computer switches over to a slower idle after like 15 seconds.

Is this a Prelude or an Accord? Why didn't you replace the H22 with an F20B?

Prelude, fifth gen. As for the F20B, because I got this thing a few years back when I was retarded and didn't know shit about cars, and just wanted something cheap that would work. The F20Bs costed more than the entire car did, since most of them were around 15-2000, while the F22 was only 400 and had decent mileage.

No, not a back up light even though one of those is required too. But like a super bright red light at the back you can activate with a switch which is not the standard rear light nor a brake light. Googling it would be easy.

No thanks. Do you mean Hazard Lights? Here they flash rhythmically in the back. Bit we don't call them fog lights because we use them for all sorts of hazards, not just fog. If your cars actually have just a super bright red light that is only for use in fog than that's retarded and I am glad I didn't google it and I hope your daughters get raped to death by packs of wild Muslim niggers.

Thanks for the you dumb fag. Go google how to destroy western civilization. The first article will have a picture of you. The second picture will be of your daughters being raped by packs of wild Muslim niggers.
>>
>>17766306
It's not a hazard light because it doesn't flash. It's not just for the fog but for like a blizzard and other such things that limit visibility, but not just the dark.

Hmm and IDK tough talk from a person from Drumppf land. Enjoy falling behind on all kinds of development and lose all allies. And wow you got triggered? Does your lack of IQ also come with like +100% aggression? Just fucking Google what a fucking hog light is, and apply it to the rear of the vehicle without getting triggered like a baby.

That's strange actually because when I was young and drove my dad's manual car, I used to drive it ok and didn't rape the clutch or anything but it always felt better after my dad had driven it. Like if I had driven it the previous night and drove it the next day it felt the same but if I drove it the previous night and my dad went to work with it and then I drove it it felt doticeably better.

Happened to me for the first and only time this winter. Some soccer mom in an SUV slammed on her brakes to not go through a yellow light and I kinda figured she was going to do that so I backed off her a bit, but the intersection was in a decline and it was snowing out, the moment I hit the decline my brakes stopped working. Started pumping them and shit but nothing, I was just sliding straight towards her. My friend immediately knew what was going on and we both just held out breath. I was trying to think of what to do. I had 3 options, risk going by her in the oncoming lane since nobody was coming, risk going by her in the right turn only lane, or just ram her and hope nothing bad happens (terrible idea I know). Keep in mind my horn wasn't working so I couldn't let her know I couldn't stop. The intersection was right before a bridge, the perpendicular road was a one way road right onto the highway, with a right turn only lane on my side. There was a car in the lane but thankfully he went for it so I decided to steer the car to the right onto the lane and hope nobody was coming through the intersection. I accelerated a bit (thank god for FWD but just this one time) and turned the wheel just enough so the car was in the lane and just slid through the intersection. The moment I saw nobody coming I let out a sigh of relief and slid to a stop

I die
I live again

At least with the PT you don't need to pull a wheel to change the battery. Just pull the air box and one of the headlight brackets. Chrysler engineers 1999-2013 were all meth addicts.

It's the only way any of those cars make sense.

My dash vents also whistle. Since the AC doesn't work anyway, I don't care. In winter I use floor vents and defrosters for heat.

Perhaps the new Colorado/Canyons have an issue with TPS, because we have one at work that does that too.

It's really mainly Chrysler. As much as the Ford/GM shills argue, the reliability between the two is comparable.

when my mom was driving the whole family to our vacation the brakes gave up, we had 5 people in the car and 2 cats, she didn't hesitate to use the handbrake and kept a mitsubishi pajero from doriftoing while the rear wheels were locking up from pulling too hard. i gave her my ford fiesta st 2 years ago cause the mitsu got some engine damage and she drives better than anyone else in my family (did some light tougee with her once for shits n giggles)

if your stop/tail is a dual filament bulb, try replacing the bulb - might be a broken filament inside the bulb, shorting the brake and park circuits together, thereby energising the wiring from back park to front park circuit

Less than a minute, 2 intersections in central city.

But yeah, you know how morons take recalled events at face value? "He acted like a total nutjob and just demanded I stop the car for no reason" spreads like wildfire. Pros, weeded out people I didn't know were morons, cons, said morons were friends.
