hey everyone i have a question about my integra. when i am in 2 and third gear at low speed and let off the gas it jerks kinda hard. then when i coast and give it gas in third or second it like jerks again. i just barley tap the gas and it jerk i really would like that to get smoother and was wondering about any solutions. If anyone has one plz tell me soon as possible thank you

"at low speed"how low?

any manual car will do that if you're going 10mph in 3rd gear.

yeah mine does that too
mine does it all the time in 1st gear though... but only if i just suddenly let off the gas completely. i didn't think it was a problem

honda and acuras from what i know, dont have what like volkswagons's do, that thing where it decellerates a manual tranny smoothly, so it is like an auto when u let off of the clutch. any of our manuals will do what u said, so nothing to really worry about

You didn't happen to remove the throttle body dashpot to make room for a strut bar did you? The reason I ask, is that I was reading some threads on G2ic where people were talking about doing this, and the general conclusion semed to be that you could remove it, with the only side-effect being you would lose smooth deceleration - it would be rough when you took your foot off the gas.

on G2's just above the intake manifold are some little 'flying saucer' shaped thingy's like this:

depending on strut bar brand, there is often not enough clearance. Suggestions were: insert washers under strut bar or take of throttle dashpot.

Picture blongs to DA-MAX from G2ic. Hope he doesn't mind me borrowing it for educational purposes...
