Air intake

Hi Everyone,

I installed a short ram K&N intake in my 03 civic Lx it was given to me for free, and everything is fine, the only thing i noticed is that when i press the gas pedal to take off i feel a little kick or nudge in the gas pedal.

Any ideas.

Re: Air intake

As in, you press the pedal and it sticks at a certain point?

Re: Air intake

no like you feel a bump in the pedal. it only happens when i take off not when i am driving. and it does not happen when i am in nutral.

Re: Air intake

well im guessing it has nothing to do with your new intake i would check motor mounts maybe front lower control arm bushings. try removing the intake and see if it still does it.
