Hacking Away In Fustration

[chevguy_80]

ok this is what ive done it a d16z6 obd1 in a 91 honda civic
i have a p28 ecu
i have a jumper harness with vetc and o2
i used obd0 harness
the car will start but will rev up to 3000 rpm then stall
its throwing code 4 and 5 which are crank and map
im so lost as what to do
if anyone can help it would be great and please dont reffer me to a search there are so many i cant find my way around

it sounds to me like a vacuum leak,yourmap sensor runs off of vaccum's,,you might have some of the hoses mixed up

 

[chevguy_80]

the thing is where is my map sensor

 

[INJEN78]

on the firewall,right behind the intake manifold,here are these little solenoidlooking things,,its the one with the electrical connection coming out,i believe the one all the way leftif your looking from the front of the car

 

[chevguy_80]

the dizzy is new not to say its no good but
can i just and the obd plug to the existing map sensor and use the one on the z6

 

[chevguy_80]

THANKS A BUNCH THIS HAS BEEN AN EXPERIENCE LOL

 

[chevguy_80]

OBD0 to OBD1 Distributor Wiring
OBD0 (Harness Side) OBD1 OEM Dist.(Distributor Side)
Blue w/Green Stripe-- Orange*
Blue w/Yellow Stripe --White*
Orange w/Blue Stripe --Orange w/Blue Stripe
White w/Blue Stripe --White w/Blue Stripe
Orange --Blue w/Green Stripe
Thin White-- Blue w/Yellow Stripe
Thick White** --Yellow w/Green Stripe

*Note 1: On some aftermarket OBD1 distributors, the Orange and the White wire are swapped.

**Note 2: If you confuse the two OBD0 white wires, the car will not start and could cause ignitor failure!




these are the following dizzy instuction i have are they correct

anyone?

 

[chevguy_80]

anyone have an idea

 

[chevguy_80]

bump

 

[chevguy_80]

it will turn over and fire but real low rpm and stalls soon after

 

[INJEN78]

ignition timing,,try rotating the dizzy

 

[chevguy_80]

is it true i have to do the timing with the service check on

 

[INJEN78]

you mean the check engine light???
you do ignition timing by just rotating the dizzy forward or backward

 

[chevguy_80]

the white wires are different in size so im sure i didn't plus it wasn't part of the same bundle of wires the flatter white wire was seperated from the rest
ive ordered a fuel filter the car did sit for almost 2 years before it was given to me so im guessing its worth a try
also im gonna pull the fuel line and crank it over to see if my fuel pump is working

 

[chevguy_80]

thats what i was afraid of it did it the first couple of time then since it has not
could the filter be pluged causing it not to
also when i open the gas cap it sucks for alot of air
thank again for all the help this is my first import and so far i love it
well i guess not the first i did have a 94 dodge stealth for while what a peice

 

[chevguy_80]

hey thank i had read that in another thread but they forgot to mention where it was
2.5 hour i spent looking for something under the hood
hahaha im such a noobie

come on i had to ask a buddy at work what a dizzy was
how do i feel now i get flamed at work for it lol

 

[chevguy_80]

i bought a haynes boook for 92-95 civic and have spent hours looking it
but of course its not gonna show me cause i need one for my car not the motor
duh

 

[chevguy_80]

haha not greasy but i did come home to a clean house the night i bought it
threw it on the coffee table just after the gf washed it off
so needless to say half the cover is now part of the table until i clean it so im told
