f22b1 engine problems
i have a 94 ex, and i raced a friend with a 97 ex, his car was way faster than mine. i have been having starting problems and it "jumps" when in idle. i'm starting to suspect one of my cylinders not working. after i turn off my car i always smell gasoline, and i checked my fuel rail and filter and nothings leaking. its definetly coming from the engine bay. also the rpms spike up when i first start it but it takes forever to start. after driving a while the idle goes down to 800ish, but i sounds like its about to stall. any help would be appriciated, i'm planning to swap out for an h22 anyways by the end of this month so i'm not really putting the effort i should to find the problem myself lol, but if anyone would be able to know about it

if you want to find out how many cyls your car is running....with the engine running pull one spark plug wire out of the head one at a time. When you pull each wire out of the head if the car will stumble little bit and the exhaust tone will change (it will be noticeable). If it doesn’t then you know that cyl has something wrong with it.

what do you mean they are stuck in? The f22b1 plugs I have noticed get pretty stiff and you have to work them off and then back on again. Try twisting them back and forth. Worst thing that might happen is the rubber will fall apart. But if they are hard to get off. you prob in need of new wires anyways
