B16 ED6 Limp Mode Issues
Hey, I'm running a B16A2 motor in my 90 Civic Std. It cranks over and runs, but I have a few issues. It's throwing Codes 4 and 10(crank angle and intake air temperature), and I don't know how to fix the issue. I have the car wired correctly(unfortunately the motor didnt come with the b-series harness), but I cannot get the car out of limp mode. I know that the manifold I have DOES NOT have the sensor for IAT on it(it's OBD2), but is that why she stays in limp mode? Also, the timing belt is walking out away from the motor, and rubbing the plastic timing cover. Any input is greatly appreciated.
Also, the car has a serious positive camber problem on the right front, but the left front is fine. I had to use honda civic dx knuckles to do the swap in the first place.
Thanks!!

the crank angle sensor code is what puts in in limp mode... it could be a faulty distributor if you are sure the wiring works.
you can get an IAT sensor off almost any honda at the junkyard with mpfi i believe. but an obd0 car will have the proper wiring connector.
does the timing belt ever sit over the edge of the cam gears?

Re: B16 ED6 Limp Mode Issues
actually there should be. my friend has a b16a2 in his rex...there is a spot for one on the bottom of the intake...and if anything drill a hole in your oem intake tubing or what ever tubing you have and put the sensor in that hole. works well enough.

nvm he is running a skunk2 intake so it has the hole for the sensor. But just poke a hole in your intake tubing. its really as easy as that.

Re: B16 ED6 Limp Mode Issues
Yeah, I think that's it. The kid who sold me this **** prolly gave me one teg knuckle and one dx. Great.
Anyways, anyone have a clue as to why the car keeps throwing these codes 4 and 10? Limp mode is getting really irritating. Not to mention, I gotta figure out how to fix this IAT problem.
