85 FI Accord, problems with PGM-FI

    I just put a new head gasket on my 85 Accord LXi, fuel injected, auto.
    Runs fine except when I get up to about 30 mph and with a bit of
    acceleration it bogs and the PGM-FI light comes on. I let up on the
    gas and it goes back to being fine. I rechecked the timing belt but
    the marks line up fine although I suppose I could be off one cog if
    I'm not getting the mark on the pulley aligned just right with the
    head. But it seems like this might be more of a fuel delivery
    problem.

    Anyone have any insights before I go all over the thing again. It's
    not loping at idle so I don't think its an intake manifold leak.

    thanks

    Bill

    Are you sure you don't have an 86 Accord (only because there is no such
    thing as an 85 LXi) or maybe an 85 Accord SEi?

    Anyway, what code do you get from the computer?

    Found the problem; a loose ground wire. All fixed and things are fine.
