2000 Honda Civic d16y7 misfire [solved]
I have a 2000 Honda Civic 1.6 with the automatic. Bought it with a misfire. Set code p1399 p0301 p0302 p0303 p0304 and p300. I have tried everything on this car to get rid of it fuel filter fuel injectors spark plug wires spark plugs multiple distributors and crank sensor. Checked compression it's 195 on all four holes. Checked timing and reset timing multiple times same thing. Still has an uneven Miss with AC on at idle and under load engine light flashing anyone have any ideas?

Plugs look good. They are ngk plugs. New distributor no cracks no defects I can see. Same symptoms with 4 distributors. No coolant in cylinders and no less of coolant anywhere. Passed a coolant pressure test

Yes that's all I've been able to find. Two different ones from rockauto. One from AutoZone and one from O'Reilly's

Go get an oem one from the junkyard. Try to find one out of a wrecked car so you know it was running before.

I looked at all the junkyards near me in the Tampa area. No luck finding any. In fact most the cars are stripped down to a empty shell. Anyone on here have some extra OEM distributors for sale?

change your VVT. Variable Valve Timing. It is below the valve cover on the passenger side of the engine. Auto stores charge over $200 You can get it cheaper online.,it has 3 bolts. Not visible . You have to feel for them . This solved my problem. Hope it helps
