Did you check the harness and dizzy? What ECU are you using and with what harness?

The 2000 ITR harness is OBD2B. Your p28 ECU for a 98 ITR would be OBD2A. Maybe that is the problem?

I understand the oil pressure issue, however, that does not explain that fact that his tach isnt working. Thats why I thought it might be the OBD2A ECU with an OBD2B harness issue. The ECU wiring is a wee bit different between the two.

Not only is it a wee bit different, I don't even think that the plugs will work! Make sure you have the right conversion harness between obd2a and b and the P28.

As far as the Male/Female ends of the harness/ECU, I always thought that the OBD2A will fit OBD2B, but it has a different wiring schematic. A OBD2 harness will not fit an OBD1 ECU(such as the P28), but since he had it on his OBD2A 98 ITR configuration, he either had the OBD2A-OBD1 conversion harness, or ordered the hondata or similar ECU with the OBD2A female sockets.
