Ended up swapping oil pumps between the two blocks so I could use the crank sensor on the Z6. Worked well, but I had to also swap oil pans since the dipstick is on the Y7's oil pump so that pan is also a little different. I used the timing cover off the Y7 also. The motor purrs like a kitten!

Or maybe it's called the knock sensor, either way, what is the best way to handle this? Anyone?

Look at where the wiring harness goes around the intake manifold bracket next to the oil filter. That bracket rubs the harness there and causes a short that make your speedo jump, and ultimately go completely dead. It should be a yellow and black wire, if I remember right. You'll ultimately...

I guess the sensor in question is called the crank position sensor, not a timing sensor (even though I think that's exactly what it does, sense timing compared to the distributor?) This sensor is found under the timing belt cover on the crank.

Timing Sensor? Looks like my 98 bottom end has a timing sensor on it, but the 95 bottom end doesn't. I'm going to use the 98's wiring harness, so will this work? If so, what do I do with the extra plug? Also, I took both motors out with the transmissions still attached. I plan on just...

Hey guys, I think I'll forego swapping the entire motor out and just swap lower ends. That way I can not fool around with the OBD stuff. Also, from talking to the owner of the donor car, the vtec manifold may not be 100%. He said he never really felt like the vtec ever kicked in. That being...

Thanks guys.

Should I pull the motor and the transmission together? Is that easier? Or do I leave the transmission in the car?

thanks. How heavy is the motor, roughly? I'm sure it's not as heavy as a small block chevy, right?

Is there a hook/bracket available to bolt on for an engine hoist? Or do you just wrap some chains around it "hillbilly style?" Does anyone have an order of operations for pulling a motor? Which engine brackets do you do first, what do you take off first, things like those? The cars I'm...

Thank you very much, sir!

Which harness on that site do I need? I can't find anything specific on my swap.

Thanks I'll check into it. Thanks for that link too.

So.. Sorry for my ignorance, but what is 'OBD?'

I can't get over the fact that this forum exists! I feel like I won the lotto! My 98 is dead after 300,000+ miles... Threw a rod through the block. :readfaq: I have another civic available to me for next to nothing. The engine is fine. I'd like to swap motors between the two cars. The...
