MAP Sensor!
Recently car started to misfire badly! Would rev to 6K then would start to cut out. Due to being busy with work
i dropped it into the local dealer! Hoping that they would sort the problem out. Big Mistake! When i went to collect
car i was told by service manager that they could not find the problem and would need to carry out checks at my cost! Car still
under warranty!! Needless to say i took the car home and set about finding the solution myself. Logged on to S2KI and found
the solution within minutes!! Checked the spark plugs & MAP sensor as described and problem was fixed! few weeks later car
started to stall at junctions. Again logged on to S2KI and found solution! Reset the engine management unit and did the idle
learn process.
Don't think i will use a Honda Dealer Again!!!
Thanks to all for supplying info which helped me to fix my S2000.

mine too was idling rough and was reluctant to rev past 6k....it would rev but it was not smooth or linear
I disconnected the battery overnight.......removed the MAP sensor....knocked it and refitted and now all is ok
thank for s2ki!!!

Neil - I'll do a write up in a week or so if you want - I'm currently trying to fix a problem on mine which is one of the following :
Map Sensor, Fuel Injectors, Fuel Filter, Coils, Spark plugs, or Fuel filler cap.
I can do a write up on them all soon !
Basically it's causing the Engine Check Light to come on. Wich is a bit of an AR$E !
