Stalling while driving

10

Asked by Tobias574 Aug 11, 2019 at 05:04 PM about the 2002 Honda Civic LX

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2002 Honda Civic Lx with tje 1.7 engine. It likes to
stall within 10 minutes of driving, after it sets and cools, it
will start up again. I've put a new catalytic converter on,
spark plugs look great, the valves are functioning.
Someone told me it could be a crankshaft positioning
sensor, but if that is bad, the car shouldn't run or start.
Although I am a mechanic, I'm still learning about Honda's.
My OBDll does not pull any codes. What would cause my
issue?

you'll have to test fuel pressure , spark , injector pulse etc. when the problem occurs . P.I.T.A. Disconnect the fuel line behind the valve cover , hit the key and see if any crap comes out besides gas

I have plenty of fuel pressure. I replaced the fuel pump, fuel pump relay, tps, ( throttle positioning sensor). Idle control solenoid, map sensor. New catalytic converter, (that was the first thing I replaced) it is real sluggish when in drive, if I start in lower gear it will go but, tired of it shutting down. It is the first honda I've ever owned, ( I think it will be the last). I always thought hondas were reliable..

I have this same issue with my 2000 Honda Civic. I was wondering if you'd discovered a specific cause I'm pulling my hair out and my mechanics hair trying to fix this.
