reduced power......??????
2000 manual tranny......
car has been fine lately.......been driving it alot.....but today on the way home i noticed the coolant gauge would peg out......and at the same time the oil pressure would drop to 0.....and reduced power would come up.......but the car still ran exactly the same......but if i turn the car off and back on it would go back to normal.....but randomly it would do it again......the car could sit still running and it would be fine.......but sometimes if i would turn the wheel or hit the brakes it would mess up again......so i pulled over and unpluged the oil pressure sender.......gauge reads zero now......no messages.......after a few seconds of driving the message comes up and coolant temp is pegged again.....turn off car and turn back on its normal again.....so that ruled out the oil sender.....(btw....this is in the civic) checked all the grounds they look ok.....
anyone with any ideas?????
btw car has lg long tube street headers, lsx 90mm intake ls2 throttle body...
