Re: Idle Wandering

Sounds like your IACV(Idle Air Control Valve) to me since it is surging in that RPM range after the engine is warmed up. I have a link below that will show you how to clean it. Its easy to do.

Re: 95 Civic A/C Problem

If everything else in the system is in working order(IE:Compressor, Expansion Valve, etc). And you have the correct amount of Refrigerant in the system, but haven't pulled the Vacuum, then that is...

Re: 95 Civic A/C Problem

Pull a deep vacuum like Ron said. Until you do this don't complain about having an A/C system that doesn't blow cold air. Pulling a deep vacuum as already mentioned is VITAL, without a deep vacuum...

Re: b16 jerks while just cruising

I had this issue with my LS when I first swapped it in. It drove me insane for a while before I finally read about adjusting the TPS. I adjusted it to spec and I've never had an issue since.

Re: Are all 92-95 a/c compressors the same?

Glad you figured it out. R134A and R12 A/C lines are not interchangeable. The Compressors are the same on the inside and how they function. IE: Any 92-95 Compressor will compress both R12 and...

Re: Another Security Feature to Think About

I'm with you. I would want to do the same. I think this concept is very cool. Just got to keep power to it so it doesn't have to be charged.

Re: I/H/E combo for b16a2?

X2!

I have an LS in my EJ1 and I'd take it any day over a gutless B16A even though I don't have VTEC. I really liked my old buddies B20 he had in his 5th gen Hatch. That was fun.

Re: ac problems in 94 dx

This is what I believed as well.

OP, how hot is it right now where you live? If its 80 to 85 degrees then that amount of Refrigerant may be ok..but you will find out once it gets hotter and...

Re: I want a tachometer!

Just do what 94EG8 said and you will be fine. I have done it quite a few times on cluster swaps. There's really nothing to it at all. You would be more likely IMO to crack the dash bezel getting...

Re: loose shifter

The shaft that comes out of the tranny, where the Linkage slides on. Do you have a bolt slid through that with a nut on the other side? If so this will cause the shifter to be loose and flop around...

Re: any ideas for engine swap for a 95 hatchback si

First thing that should be on your list regardless if your going to mod the car or keep it stock is a good "Stealth" installed alarm system.

And you can make that D16Z6 fast....with Boost. ...

Re: ac problems in 94 dx

In all honesty I would just keep it in. Even though you don't use it. Your really not going to make enough money off of the system IMO to worry about taking it out and selling the parts. And if...

Re: ac problems in 94 dx

There is a lot of things wrong with what you did. Going about it that way will never give you desired results which is cold A/C.

Re: How much does an a/c go for?

My Civic is a 93 so it had the R12 setup. Instead of retrofitting it to R-134a I found a complete A/C system out of a 95 that had been hit in the side. I got the whole setup for $75 IIRC.

I...

Re: LS or B20??

I'd go B20 and hope they stand behind that warranty if anything goes wrong. I'd be sure to throw a new Timing Belt/Waterpump on either one you buy.
