Okay, so here's the deal.
I bought this 1988 CRX with a B18a swap for $380. The engine was just rebuilt 2000 miles ago with a bored and resleeved head, and a new valvetrain with all new OEM parts.
The car runs fine for the most part, but it burns oil pretty badly, and the wiring is a nightmare.
Also, when the car gets to operating temperature or higher, then ignition cuts, out. It has been suggested that it could be the igniter.
I also am throwing an intermittent Code 43 (Fuel Supply System Malfunction). It has also been suggested that it could be because of a faulty O2 sensor.
I checked the resistance of the injectors and injector resistor and found that they were within working spec.
I have still yet to test the FPR or replace the fuel filter.
Also, I am not sure how the oil is leaking into the cylinder, because the car is getting a full 175-180psi of compression on all four cylinders. I think I may have a bad valve seal somewhere.
Once I get the ignition problem fixed, I will be pulling the head to figure out why I'm burning oil and to swap in my new 11.8:1 pistons
