so heres the just of my story....
I bought a 88 lx civic with a d16z6 already swapped in it, in non running condition. checked compression..good. motor turns over nice. blahblahblah.
buddy was running the motor off a PM6 with a vtec controller. BOO
so I am doing this swap correctly.
I have all the correct parts I need and so on.
-ecu conversion harness
-p28
-4 wire 02
-obd1 dizzy
-etc...
I am starting this thread as I may need help along the way with certain things.
Today.... I removed the old engine harness to start by inspecting all the previous dpfi to mpfi wiring to make sure its all done correctly so I can consider it reliable. I started cutting the massive amounts of electrical tape off the harness and his wiring is the most hidious shit I have ever seen. and trust me Ive seen some bad wiring! so this is where I am starting and I am going to do the dpfi to mpfi wiring all over again and along the way do any other necessary wiring needed.
my first problemo is...
It looks like he soldered a the obd0 si dizzy plug onto the harness and I want to check if he did it correctly. My problem is the colors do not match up with what they are supposed to be. So I am going to trace the wire back further, when I have time, to see if the person who did the swap possibly soldered on new wires for some reason. I will update this thread tommorow.
