    Battery voltage, check for battery voltage at starter if it doesn't crank, check alternator (if you pull it autozone will test it for free, same with the starter and battery). It sounds like alternator though, did your dash lights or headlights flicker, and your radio cut in and out?

    Clutch problems

    They wear at about the same rate so it would be wise to change both out but it might be able to wait just be weary of leaks or loss of brake pressure.

    97 civic ex auto wont rev over 1000 rpm barely runs

    So I drained and filled the transmission once. The fluid wasn't terrible looking but wasn't good and smelled very bad. And the drain plug was covered in metal shaving. I removed and cleaned the mainshaft sensor, had 2 small metal flakes on it. Tested the leads and got 469 ohms. I got a junkyard...

    97 civic ex auto wont rev over 1000 rpm barely runs

    I don't recall the d4 light flashing. Sorry I posted the wrong code the first time. I got p0700 and p0715. I was gonna do that and try and clean up the linear solenoid as well. Is the d4 light suppose to come on with the key and then go away?

    97 civic ex auto wont rev over 1000 rpm barely runs

    Risked driving the car to work this morning. Short 3 mile drive took all the back streets. And about half way I got a cel. Had my scanner already plugged in and read them when I got to work. P0700 and p0715. Transmission fault and input/turbine speed fault

    So I adjusted the cable by the service manual and have the same results. The car pulls uphill in park when you give it gas. Drives forwards uphill in neutral, and doesn't move in reverse uphill but will on flat ground. It shifts very hard at anything above 30 percent throttle

    97 civic ex auto wont rev over 1000 rpm barely runs

    So the car starts up very fast on the first crank, and idles smooth and even at about 700. I took it on a short drive, only 300-400 feet and parked it back in the driveway. The car drove good with a hesitation, like i had to give it a little more throttle than expected for the low speed but it...

    97 civic ex auto wont rev over 1000 rpm barely runs

    So it's been busy and hectic and haven't had much time to do car work. But I dropped a bottle of octane booster in the tank and let it idle for awhile. The car was running the same for about 3 minutes and then bam idle cleared up and smoothed out to 600 and I was able to rev it up to 2000 rpms...

    It doesn't change anything I unhooked the cable and moved the shifter on the transmission itself to neutral and it pulled forward

    97 civic ex auto wont rev over 1000 rpm barely runs

    Completely off topic and I'm not trying to get troubleshooting on another problem but I thought I'd throw is out there so the information is known, the transmission drives forward in reverse, neutral and rolls forward in park until the brakes grab. Any way that could affect the engine??

    97 civic ex auto wont rev over 1000 rpm barely runs

    The code was from running the engine with the o2 unplugged for the video. After the current problem. I bought the car running like this. A month ago maybe 6 weeks. Im still waiting on my timing light being returned to me but I might go pick up a cheap one tomorrow

    97 civic ex auto wont rev over 1000 rpm barely runs

    The tach would pop half way up and drop back down. It's hard to see in the video but it smooths out a little at wot with it unplugged. I believe so I couldn't feel to much adjustment when reinstalling it. I got p1350 I think it was, it was for the o2 sensor, and it stayed after I plugged it...
