*HELP*

- Mon Jul 21, 2008 7:45 am #62762 few problems in my 1995 civic coupe dx that was a 1991 HONDA INTEGRA xsi motor (japanese)

The other day I was driving and my alternator belt snapped and the alternator fell off believe it or not. I replaced the mounting bolts and belt it didnt want to turn on, I checked all the fuses and reset the ECU and tried again and it started charing it but the battery already went to hell completly, So I replace the battery too and as im driving on the way to pick up then new battery in first and second gear at around 2k RPM it feels like it wants to die out for a second then comes back and torques (cuz your foots on the petal) basically it hesitates to accelerate for one split second, im sure it is nothing with the intake system the throttle body I always keep clean along with the fuel system. Also to add in my idle is sitting at 1,500 now and it normally sits at 800-900, Meaning the idle changed after all this happend. Im just trying to find out what can be wrong i'v tried checking for any unusal air leaks around the map sensor and all that but I couldnt get anything. Does anyone have any ideas what this can be? :x
