Okay so here it goes... I finished my LSVTEC swap last night around 2am: :sleep
- obd2a 99 teggy
- obd1 b16a3 head
- ECUHACKER.COM LsVtec Chipped ECU w/ conversion harness(2a - 1)
I started it up and it ran awesome!! Except when I drove it, NO VTEC!! it was overheating and not blowing any hot air from the vents, we swapped the coolant temp sensor on the head with the LS one, added alot of antifreeze(was bone dry) and I figured that would make vtec engage seeing as pretty sure vtec needed somewhere around 128 degrees to activate so I drove it, still no vtec and CEL still on, so this morning I got in it to drive it and I noticed the speedo wasnt working, I checked the VSS and BAM!!!! Plugged it in but...DAMN! Still no vtec...I decided @ this point to jump the ecu for codes and I got code 21 which I'm pretty sure is VTEC Solenoid, Right? But I'm not sure seeing that my ECU is OBDI. Is 21, VTEC Solenoid, is a OBDII code or is it the same for both I and II??
I would appreciate help from both those that have done LSVTEC's and those who havent and might still know thier shit 'bout em'
**I also had to use my stock LS TB for somereason and had to rig up 1 of the vacuum sensors that come from the IM for some reason, does anyone know from first hand experience about this particular custom sensor on 99 Teg LSVTEC's???
Thanks is Advance --- Mark {Connecticut}
