Re: 98EX Rough idle, New motor

I have finally exhausted all of my options at this point. It is going to Des Moines and will either be fixed or crushed into a desk ornament. I have gone over every single inch of that car along with...

Re: 98 civic sputters/shakes. help!

I had the same problem with a disintegrated dizzy rotor before. My car has a similar issue did you resolve it?

Re: 98EX Rough idle, New motor

The Idle issue has returned it's slightly more subtle now and it is a cyclic process during idle, the surge is progressively harder and softer over a course of several minutes. While the clutch is...

Re: 98EX Rough idle, New motor

Yes, however a new motor with 16 miles on it at this point shouldn't have a loud knock, and it should idle properly.

Went out and bought the gasket. It matched the one that was on there. turns out the top 4 bolts on the intake mani were loose. tightened them and now it runs, idles and drives fine. EXCEPT when you...

Re: 98EX Rough idle, New motor

As for labor, I'll have to eat that cost. 2 swaps for $750 isn't horrible though. And yes we will be replacing the 2000 gasket with a 96-98 gasket to match the 96-98 intake mani. I'll be headed out...

Re: 98EX Rough idle, New motor

OK, so I spoke with the engine supplier, and they are going to exchange them, and refund my core deposit. So I will just be swapping in a 1998 D16Y8 Block/Head. As that will solve the issue. I'll...

Re: 98 Civic flexplate bolts hitting on tin dust shield...??

Did you run into any issues during the swap? regarding the FIACV assembly on the 2000 motor?

Re: 98EX Rough idle, New motor

It looks as if the FIACV does in fact plug in to the harness... Does anyone know of a good place to start looking online, or I'll grab a chilton's guide soon with luck and it should be there. It is...

Re: 98EX Rough idle, New motor

Mostly because I'll have to bring the whole car, after it explodes, 26 hours to their shop... I'm sure the quality of the motor is top notch however.

Re: 98EX Rough idle, New motor

Injection hardware as in fuel rail? Or will the FIACV be necessary or is that something that could be bypassed? I think I may need to take it to the pro's in DMI. I'd hate to think I was already in...

Re: 98EX Rough idle, New motor

That's what I was thinking. Found a few for under $75 on ebay, so I'm looking for a 99-00 intake manifold. Probably easier that way. The issue is that I am already into just this motor swap for $3k,...

Re: 98EX Rough idle, New motor

OK, That explains the issue, its a bare block/head swap so everything else is off of the 98. So should I just replace the manifold and cross my fingers?
It would have the 98 ex harness, so if any...

Re: 1995 vtec del sol - what engine do I have?

Yeah, you're pretty much stuck man, you got the heaviest frame and body, with the lowest output vtec motor, at a measly 106HP you'd be best off doing a mini-me swap. that would at least get you a...

Re: 98 civic EX EJ8 -> EM1 Build

I'm aware it is not an EM1 it is an EJ8. It has an EM1 front end at the moment, and I hope to affix an si wing and 50/50 tails. I plan to make it look as close to an em as I can get. I'm quite...
