Vehicle Gurus In The House Help!!!! by IBROHIM(op): 4:59pm On Feb 26, 2015
Experts please come to my aid! I bought a Honda Civic 1997 model (UK) and have been using it for almost 3 years now but I noticed that it doesn't accelerate like any other car. My mechanic looked into the engine side and screamed that the car was converted from manual to automatic!

Please what adjustment electrically must be done to accommodate the automatic gearbox and give it a normal kick down (acceleration) ?
Pls guys help cos the engine is still pristine!!! Thanks in advance!!!!

how can your mechanic know if it was a manual converted to automatic?
