Losing RPMs
99 Honda Civic Si. (1.6 DOHC VTEC)
Ok so heres the thing. When i drive occasionally for over 10 minutes my car will start lossing rpms. For example: I will drive the car okay for 10 minutes than all of a sudden i will be in 5th gear and when i let off the game the rpms will almost instantly drop down and my car will start jolting.I am getting a constant check engine light. When i shift my car jolts also dure to the rpms instantly droppping. I was told it could be a nox/knock sensor (not sure how its spelled/pronounced) |
