HONDA PRELUDE 2.2 VTEC/VTIR H22A TRIPTRONIC

would say its the cam or crank sensor, failing them the coil pack is over heating. hope this helps these the main problems that can do this.

some models wiring is not compatable with others even though they look the same..did you cross reference anything or not...

need to pull the ABS codes to see where the problems are.

in the h22a, h22a4 if you have and internal coil you perform a voltage out put test (use your multi meter or just take it to autozone). also ohm out your igniter to make sure that you have continuity. if not you may consider buying the entire dizzy housing to ensure that whatever caused the igniter to burn out will just cause it to burn out again.

The possibilities are limitless, I have done many many swaps. My favorite is the H22A, thats a 1992-1996 Prelude into this vehicle. But you can pick almost any fast 4-cylinder front wheel drive honda, the integra GSR is pretty awesome, uses a B16 Vtec engine. The only thing you need is money. :)

You will need to know if is a h22a or h22a4. The h22a has the kind of fuel injectors that you'll need with your current set up. Also, you'll need the ECU. If you are putting a 95 or newer h22a in the car then you'll need a P13ecu to run the Vtec. You'll also need to run power to the vtec solenoid on the h22. If you're using a 96 or new Prelude engine it will be OBD2, your current wiring is OBD1. Your best bet is to get a 92 thru 95 H22a only.

Your public library will have a manual covering your mechanical repair. Moreover, they have the automotive shops online software called AllData. It is the best auto technician database available today. You can print out specific troubleshooting procedures, diagrams, step-by-step istructions, and soforth. The typical person cannot afford to pay for this service, just automotive dealerships, etc... that is why the public library made it available to everyone and for free to view and print out material. This should Fixya! Good Luck!

sounds like the pickup tube may have fell off or not on properly or loose

Take the V-Tec control solenoid off and the base off the cylinder head then go to the dealership and get the parts that replace the gasket to seal the solenoid and the base module to the engine there is a clogged screen for the oil in there and the gaskets are most likely on the verge of leaking anyway. Cleaning this screen gives the 2.2 v tec all the required oil pressure to fix this problem. Most Honda or Acura dealers have these parts in stock yet, there are several different ones per engine family so I suggest that you take the solenoids and base plates with you to match up visually as i have experienced recently with a tuner, they are not all the same. many dealerships have these in stock because it is a common problem. You will see an immediate difference. Although the Honda accord is somewhat less aggressive with the v tec than say a prelude or an acura is. Due to differences in camshaft and cylinder head and intake designs for each car. Accords are typically a family oriented car whereas the prelude and Acura are more the sporty side of the equation.

any codes? the trans computer will store them. also the engine computer this is an obd2 car autozone can scan for free
