I have a 1997 EK9, and when I'm driving at low revs it does a slight misfire not a big one just a small one and mainly in 1st and second gear, in the other gears aswell but not as common as the first two gears.
Also when i put my foot down in 1st gear it's holding back now and again but in vtec it's strong as it should be.
I got it checked from my mechanic he started it up and first things he says is the valve clearances need doing together with a fuel filter change as the engine was sounding weezy as he described it, he checked the spark plugs and they were fine.
It's had oil and filter change two weeks ago.
Are the symptoms described above got to do with the valve clearances need doing what else do you think it could be, is there anything else I should change whilst I get the valve clearnaces done.
Thanks in advance
