Could a pinched vapor line off the gas tank cause a major loss of power? THe valve is opening, so it seems to be a pinched line that I can't find(seemed to happen after i installed a clutch 9-05') Or is it because I have 192k miles?

maybe its cuz u live in wisconsin....by the way i was at hwy 100 last night i let julie drive she blew the doors off a civic w/ gsr swap, intake, header, greddy exhaust and skunk2 cams. the look on this dudes face was worth me putting 110 race gas in it. then he was salty about it...i think it had to do with me saying you got one handed to u by a girl in a taurus. aka the wannabe 91+ #2. so when r we gonna race? or do i have to give julie the keys.....lol

The vapor line to the fuel tank is part of the evaporative emissions syste,

It won't affect engine performance in any way.

Check the operation of your secondaries.

hey jason. when was the last time you've changed the fuel filter?

if that aint it maybe you and i could take it out to performance plus and have Doug take a look at it. you remember when my car was dogging. i called Doug and told him what was happening and he told me what it was over the phone. it ended up being the wires.

take the mass air off. the clip and the 2 screws that hold it on. take a qtip soaked with brake cleaner and clean the back side of the 2 sensers. "if they are dirty. a big differance in my car.
julie still wants to buy your car so give me a call sometime.
