Dear All,
I want to share an issue i faced today and require your opinion on what to conclude.
Car:
Honda Civic VTI - 2000, Automatic Transmission, Driven on Petrol but also has CNG installed.
Symptom: Car was not accelerating properly and miss-firing. No check-light was showing up during the issue.
Initial-Troubleshooting
On some troubleshooting we discovered that injector # 1 (right most when viewed from front of engine) was not getting pulse.
Action: Taken to electrician
Further troubleshooting:
1- Electrician checks and declares that wiring is ok
2- Electrician checks ECU and says there is is something wrong with ECU.
Fixing options:
1- Change ECU.
2- Fix via taking pulse from another injector and remove CNG wiring.
Temporarily Fixed using option 2 without removing CNG wiring.
Current condition:
Engine is smooth there is no misfiring.
Help Required for conclusion:
I am wondering, if it is possible to grab a connection from another injector pulse and having car run without misfire or it is just that the electrician fearing that he might not get a better reward ended up telling something big and then fixing some loose wire i am confused and require help from members who might be knowledgeable in such issues.
