obd1 dizzy in it? and what ecu are your running?

Elitesky

i have a obd 1 dizzy in it with the connector on it soldered and heat shrinked i beleive they are all the right wires going to plug but i put back in same place as i pulled apart.
and the ecu is a p28 that was chipped but i tried with chip in it and with out

1990hondacrx

sounds like a dizzy issue to me make sure your wires are pinned correctly if you have to do a continuity test from wire to wire to the ecu

Elitesky

if it was a dizzy issue it would have a rought start and/ or wouldnt start at all correct?

it starts up fine and idles perfect but the like i said its sluggish all the way to 3500 and wont go past 3500 rpms at all

Elitesky

looking around on the web could this be a tps problem? i know there are two plugs on the driver side that are exactly the same i beleive... not near the car now will check later when im done here at work.. but if they are/ can be pluged in worng will it cause this problem? and can this be causeed from timing being off by two tooth making it not go over 3500 rpms?

most things that cause it to go into limp mode will cause a Check Engine Light - do you have codes showing from the ECU?

Elitesky

well i wish it was that easy but i ordered the p28 ecu from a guy on honda-tech market place but no glass were a light flashes threw and no were to see a code... the evap canister not hooked up because the the plug on TB is broken off so imma have a check engine because of that..

1990hondacrx

p28 ecus dont have the lil glass window u have to jump the ecu off the jumper harness if there isant a jumper you will have to research which ones will jump it to read check engine codes threw the check engine light on the dash

jlicrx

with OBD1 ECU like P28, you don't check codes by looking at the LED on the ECU like OBD0 ECUs - you need to jumper across the Service Check Connector (ignition timing adjusting) on the harness which will cause the Check Engine Light on the dash to flash - you count the flashes of the CEL

Elitesky

okay i wil have to check into it because the one on the dash doesnt flash at all

Elitesky

any pictures on this? im new to hondas as u can tell and i only use the determinator and modis which i use on my other vehicles but like i said obd1 way different

I just did a Mini Me swap as well, Make sure your TPS sensor is good, or your ecu could be bad as it was chipped and some retards fawk them up and sell them. If you can get a hold of someone with a vigin p28 try putting it in and if works fine you know your problem. If not I would move on to the TPS sensor.
