UPDATE I replaced the patched hose last night and put everything back together......it brought the idle down to 1500 RPMs. Now i think i just got to check the timing. Any body got ideas about my coolant temp sensor?....I was thinking put a "T" off my heater hose with some kind of brass block...

Ok.....i put a temp sensor on the empty plug, got rid of code 6......but i have nowhere to plug it into b/c i had to rethread the original hole in the head to match the aftermarket gauge fittings. With the sensor just hooked up the car now idles at 3000 rpm instead of 2100. So do u think that...

All hoses are good.....checked with a vacuum pump. Everything is connected as shown on the diagram from the Integra....I even took the map and purge solenoid unit from the integra and hooked it up. I replaced the throttle body gasket, so all gaskets are brand new. Should i try unhooking some...

The car runs ok.....only code 1- O2 sensor and code 6- Temperture sending unit(because i put in aftermarket gauge). It just idles at about 2100 rpm and i cant figure out where the other end of the hose to the dashpot valve goes to. Im just about ready to disconnect it from the throttle...

I beat u on that suggestion brian......lol.

Yeah i checked the idle screw......didnt affect it. So it might be my throttle body gasket.....i didnt change it. All my other gaskets are brand new.....so i hope they are alright. And yesi switched the TPS wires when i had the ZC in it. Ill check it out, thanks.

On the throttle body itself......theres a diaphram looking thing that bolts to the top of the throttle body and connects to the same mechanism the throttle cables connect to. It looks very similar to the Air Boost Valve on the intake. But i dont know if because its connected to my linkage it...

From the Haynes Manual; Code 1: Oxygen content-----check O2 sensor (mine has the same code because i got open header right now) Code 4: Crankshaft Position Sensor-----check the CKP sensor Are you sure its 2 seperate codes and not a code 14?......just asking cuz code 14 is common its for Idle...

My swap is complete. '90 B18A1 in my 89 civic dx. Finally i got the engine to run on its own.....had to replace the main relay. BUT, its idling way to high...... about 2100 rpms. I've hooked all the vacuum hoses as displayed on the integra's diagram under the hood and the motor sounds good...

Ok my resistance is good on my injectors and the voltage on them starts out at around 30-40 volts when u first hit the key then levels out to 12. Normal??? Also i dont know if my pump is any good....it seemed at first like it was putting good pressure in my fuel rail, but now it doesnt. So...

I'll check everything.....everything is soldered, so i would think they are ok. Also, do you know what the voltage is supposed to be at the injector plugs. I konw its lower than 12 because thats what the resistor box is for right?

Trying to finish my B18A1 swap in my 89 Civic DX. I already have the MPFI conversion done since i used to have a ZC in the car. Im getting fire and the car will run when carburetor cleaner is sprayed in the throttle body. But I dont seem to be getting fuel through my injectors. I am getting...

Dude! It was a joke....lighten up. Yes i could call the dealer, but i thought there might be some fellow Honda guys that might like to help a guy out. I guess that would be asking too much from you. If you'd like to know the story.....I got the car from a cash advance place as a repo. The...

Ok.....this really sucks. I got a '90 Integra full car to take the motor out for my '89 Civic DX. I got the car pretty cheap, lets just say cheaper than most people pay for just the engine itself. Anyway, its missing the freakin throttle cable. Somebody must have ripped it out (hope their...

Ok....I didnt think i needed it, but i thought i'd ask to make sure. As far as the water outlet, I think i found where it goes. I got it connected to a tube that runs under the throttle body and looks like it runs into the EACV. Is this right?......
