Hondata

version 1.2.2.8

car is a 2002 honda civic SI/ k20a3
Race header/V2 intake/Comtech exhaust.

car was tuned...but I dont use that .kal any more. didnt run right.

I am using k20a3-civic-tuned-high-octane/ 93 pump gas/car seems to run fine...but i keep smelling fuel while driving at about 75 to 80 percent throttle.

I datalogged a quick 3rd gear pull, but ran out of room, so only got to 5k+ RPM's.

Im not sure what I am looking for. also...before the new update...i was getting quick flashes from my engine light at higher RPMs. i think it might be knocking?

Please take a look when you get a chance.

thanks.

You have a race header, it is normal to smell unburnt fuel. You may be running to rich as well.

Look at your datalog and look at the knock count. make adjustments to timing where you start getting knock to try and eliminate it.

I have no clue what to do.

timing as in Ignition timing? +/-?

I have had the raceheader on the car for about 2 years now, and never noticed the fuel smell until recently. :D

If you are unsure of what to do you may want to watch some of the training videos on teh website or order the DVD. Beyond that you should probably contact a tuner to have them check it out for you as you could damager your engine if you are unsure of what your are doing.

too bad there arnt any good tuners around me... :?

thanks for your help...much appreciated. :D

wow... hondata has a dvd? didn't know that. haha. gonna have to pick it up.
