94 civic question!

[Akwhite18]

Yes i have a 94 honda civic sedan that had a D15B7 in it.. few weeks back i put a B16A in it. it runs ok i guess. other then i have a CEL.. thats causing me to run in limp mode. i tried pining the plug to count the flashes to kinda narrow it down. but im not gettin anything but endless long flashes over an over same time between each flash. anyone have any helpful info? anything would be great thanks!!

that would cause me to get just endless long flashes when i pin the plug?

 

[AHHVTEC]

well im not sure but it will cause it to be in limp mode,,as for the endless flash my crx did that and it was a bad distributor, but yours is a 94 civic so im not sure

 

[Akwhite18]

im sure you know more than me.. but i just thought if it was the dizzy the car would run like crap. it still runs fair though.

 

[AHHVTEC]

well if its the dizzy and its in limp mode it will run fine up to about 3000 rpm and it want go over that

 

[Akwhite18]

well the car is hitting the red line at 7K instead of 8200.. if that helps any?
