I'm not that mechanically inclined and that's why I bought this particular car. I am definitely on a budget. How can not changing the injectors blow the engine up? I did call a place that was recommended by a friend and they asked me what kind of fuel management did I have. Well...

I just bought a 95 Civic DX Coupe with about 111,000 miles on the engine. It is not the VTEC engine. I bought it from my mechanic who was playing around with it. He had too many cars so I got it for the price of the parts. Some background. The turbo boost is just about 6psi. Factory...

Apparently, I just had bad luck with the 2nd cluster. Bought 1 just like it in Wisconsin and it works perfectly. Sure was a lot of troubleshooting for nothing. The 2nd cluster I bought was tester and they stated it worked. Going to return it today. Ron, thanks for all your help and patience.

OK. Going to start searching for gauge cluster number 3 today. When I find one, I will post the results of the install. Thanks for your help.

With the VSS connector unplugged and cluster connector B connected to the gauge cluster, I also get a reading of 7.5V. This morning, I'm going to the mechanic to get the windshield washer fluid resevoir reinstalled and to move the air filter from under the fender back to the engine...

For the Ohm test, I unplugged the harness from the VSS. I put the red probe on the yellow/white wire prong. I put the black probe on the yellow/white wire prong in the harness that is no longer connected to the VSS. I was touching the metal on both ends which should have completed the...

Houston, I think we found the problem. No Volts and no Ohms. Since I had to drive the car, I removed the fresh wire. The tests were done with the factory wires. I didn't want to go any long distance with the wire going through the window. For the Ohm test, I put the positive in the VSS...

When I do the test, do I need to have the wire unspliced for the ohm test too or can I just test the ohms at the VSS where I exposed the wire on the yellow/white wire?

Ron, I cannot post attachments. So, I have to describe the multimeter to you. It is a Sperry SP-10A. I have a positive and a negative wand. For the Ohm setting, I have 3: RX1, RX10, and RX100. For the ACV and DCV settings, I have 4: 500, 250, 50, and 10. For the DCA setting, I have...

Called the mechanic I bought the car from. He put a used VSS in but checked the ohms on it before installing it. Had power going to the input but didn't check the output from the ECU. He checked the wire from the harness and from the gauge cluster, but not from the ECU. His guess is that...

I have to go to work so I will have to finish this tomorrow. I will take a pic of the multi meter and post it so I can set it up correctly and check.

I'm not sure which wire I need to check. I looked at the diagram and it should be the yellow/blue wire. I hooked up a multi meter and turned the dial to every possible one on it and nothing. I'm guessing it's a wiring issue. I noticed that when I pulled the cluster out to check it, the...

When my mechanic replaced the speed sensor, the speedo still didn't work. They checked the wiring and had continuity all the way up to the gauge cluster. That is why he told me that I'll have to buy a new one. Every other function except the speedo works, as far as I can tell. I haven't...

No check engine light. I know it works because my mechanic installed a turbo but didn't upgrade the MAP sensor. The 1st day I took it for a spin, the CEL came on and the RPMs started jumping around. I shut it off and restarted it and the CEL went off.

I'm new to the site. Just bought a 95 Civic DX 5 speed from my mechanic. The speedometer was not working but would occassionally start working about 20 minutes after driving it. He replaced the VSS and I unplugged it and checked it out. Still looks good. No corrosion. Bought a gauge...
