So i have a D15B2 on my 1989 hatchback, 4 speed M/T, when i got the car it knocked so i thought i was screwed. did some research and it was loose rockers. tightened them, but stilled knocked, tightend them again and it stopped, but it would hardly advance any when i gave it some gas on 3rd, fourth wouldnt even move anywhere but i did notice like a hauling sound from the engine and when i would brake to come to a stop the car would turn off. i asked around and found out i had over tightened the rockers(the part where it meets the valve) so i loosened them and it knocked again. So i was like its better than having it turn off and not advancing. well it still turned off but i got some acceleration going. the knocking got to loud so i tightened the rockers again but was really carefull not to over tighten them.....
Conclusion: Stopped knocking accelerates in 3rd, not much in 4th but it still turns off on me.
Can any one help me out? Do i have some bent valves or what might be wrong?
Thanks a million, im just getting pretty tired of this crap. and i dont have money for a great swap that i would love to get.
