ok im here to say i phailed hard! i went into radio shack the other day do get the resistor to do the KS bypass. i was kinda a hurry and grabbed the first pack i saw with 470 on it paid ad left. well about a week later i looked at the pack again and saw that they were 470 ohm and not 470,000 ohm! DUH so yesterday i went a d got the right ones and now my car runs a heck of a lot better. so what a difference a measly 469,530 ohms can make in the way a car runs lol.

so for those of yo that have done this mod and their car is still running bad make sure u got the 470K ohm and not just 470 ohm!

 

the difference between ben franklin and FDR. poor FDR

 

Every pack of resistors I sell to people with 470 in it, I question them... Happens all the time, dude.

Kinda funny though, every time.

 

Live and learn as they say....

 

I did the same thing, car ran pretty crappy. I still think my timing is fluctuating though.

 

wow man, thanks for the heads up.. I will probably never bother to use the bypass as ive already replaced mine but the more you know....

 

ya i think mine is too but i think its susposed to be that way because you cant have a flat timming "curve". it kinda feels like my car sorta it hits "vtec" (for lack of a better term" a few times between 2k rpm and 4500 rpm.

 

I know exactly what you mean, some days my car lags until 3k then it's like VTAK JUST KICKED IN YO.
