Ok lets get started. I got 97' GS tegg, it has a B18A1 5spd.
has 194k on the dash, like 170k on the motor lol.
Problem here is sometimes she idles good and smooth, others she bogs down at 100-200 RPM.
Ran a compression test, i got the first two cylinders at 148-152, now the last two cylinders compression were both at around 130.
I needed a valve adjustment and never got the chance to get it done, i noticed looking at my muffler seeing the misfires i was having, there is liquid coming out the muffler, little droplets, smells like anti-freeze :???: my guess? its mixing
and burning gas like a V8 :x
heres what i did, Ran the compression test(results ^ there lol) replaced the dizzy cap & rotor, got new wires too. I dont have a CEL light either.
Any ideas on what else i should try? Im trying to see if theres any other options or routes i could take
im goin open the head and see how the valves look, later on in the day.
*Ive been thinking just goin to EngineDepot picking up a b18b1 swap with no tranny, they are 650$ with 50k miles papers and all, and get it put in for only 200$. And not dealing with any of this lol just setting aside the B18A1 and building/fixing it later maybe to drop it in a shell or somethin.
