I have a civic with a d16y8 no vtec, and the oil pan just recently got a crack so I used jb weld on it.

That worked fantastic.
I refilled the oil.
Now it boggles all the way through when accelerating.
You can really feel it through 1000 -2000 rpm.
And also I have a really low idle.

I've been trying to diagnose it all day.

My ideas.
too much oil.
distributor cap.
02 sensor.

I already checked all the spark plugs and fuel injectors and they are working fine. I'm stuck.

I'm almost afraid to ask how the welding process was done. Where was the crack on the oil pan, and how did it crack?

did you wait 24 hrs for the weld to cure?

Yeah the welding is fine, the oil is fine.

Clean your throttle body and sensors. I don't think these two issues are related unless you let it run low on oil and damaged something internally. Zeferint JB weld isn't an actualy melting weld, it's just a product you apply to a crack that seals it up. Pretty good stuff actually

Yeah that jb weld is a life saver.

Turns out the car is going into limp/safe mode because the crankshaft position sensor isn't working correctly.

Hopefully its just a wire. I'll be back in a bit to update.

It's probably the sensor itself unless it's not hooked up properly
