my accelertor pedal seems to be alot looser when i accelerate thatn usual.... usually i can feel resistance right when i push but now, it takes a while before i get any resistance.. it seems loose or somethign i dont know... also today my service engine light came on... did that a few weeks ago and they charged 40 to look in the computer but it said that there was nothing wrong... any help guys???

 

what happened to your old name, can't see why you couldn't check the engine codes on your own???

 

i think you have the wrong persoon.. i dunno how to check the codes.. and.. dont havbe an old name.. ???

 

Here are some instructions on how to check your codes and translate them. It may help to figure out why your MIL light came on and possibly why you've lost some acceleration.

You may need to have your throttle cable adjusted (tightened). If you have either the Haynes or Chiltons they show you how. I'm sure Daniel Martin will post details very soon.

Or maybe the spring on your gas pedal is worn out (do you mash the gas very often???)

 

To me it sounds like you have a lead foot.J/K

 

yeah i gun it alot i guess... seemed to do it after my dad drove it.. well, it could be something like that (spring), any way i can check that?

 

It should be just a bit loose. Go to http://integra.vtec.net/geeser/mega...0k_service.html

Scroll down to step 8, Tighten throttle cable.

 

well i found out why my pedal was loose and why the service engine light came on.. it was because my dad didnt tighten the gas cap down all the way(you know it will start clicking) well it didnt have a vacuum tight seal and.. well thats why.. thanks for all the help though.. later
