96 honda civic sputtering when driving?
When I'm sitting idle my car sputters like it wants to shut off. I changed the plugs and wires and distributer. Cap and everything. It worked for a month then it started again. I then changed it all again and it did the same,… ( runs for a month and starts sputtering) Could it be a bad fuel filter or pump? Or would I need to change the ignition coil? I would like to start small before I take it in for something big… The check engine light came on and the test said it is a misfire in cylinder #2 as well… Please help me
Pull out all of the spark plugs.
Turn the key to the "on" position for 5 seconds and then turn it to the "off" Position.
Repeat this cycle 5 times
With the spark plugs out, turn the key to the "Start" Position and let the engine crank a few times. If you see a gyser of fuel coming out of the spark plug holes, you have a leaking fuel injector and will have to replace the O-rings on it.
Change the fuel filter, Remove and clean the idle air control then try to that I think you are sucsess
Fixing that misfire will do wonders. Youtube offers videos on diagnosing that problem

#1. Change the fuel filter first.
#2. Ask a Honda Dealer to test the fuel pressure on the fuel rail pressure fitting under the hood. This is a very inexpensive test BUT the fuel filter must be clean to get an accurate fuel pressure reading.
#3. Remove and clean the idle air control valve.
- Motorcycle is sputtering, what's going on? I've had in the shop twice with a carb clean, since cleaning them 3 times by myself didn't work. Each time I pick it up from the shop, it runs great for a week or 2. No vacuum leaks that I can find, runs same without air filter. I ordered a fuel filter which I don't have now. Anything else? 2000 Honda Nighthawk 750
