92 honda civic lacks power
My 92 civic has been misfiring. I changed the spark plugs, cables, cap & rotor. The car started then turned off. Apparently the distributor went out. I changed that, the car was running fine. Next day it starts to lose power. Not exactly it lacks power but it takes long for it to get going. It doesn't have a quick reaction when I step on the gas. Any ideas?

When you say that you changed the distributor, did you install a new ICM (igniter) and coil? Make sure to adjust the idle rpm and check the timing. The timing may be retarded too much and you are losing responsiveness. Undue the three 12 mm bolts and rotate the distributor slightly counter-clockwise, if you don't have an inductive timing light.
Did you use NGK spark plugs? Have you replaced the fuel filter in the last 60,000 miles? |

No other outputs affected. Recently, had sprinkler system put in. They cut main line and patched it. At first, lots of muddy water was coming out of sink, toilet and shower. Then all water stopped. They found the debris in the pipe and cleaned it out. All worked well, but now my cold water...
