I have already searched and couldn't come up with anything. I have a 1990 integra, with a B18A1 block, I was starting to install the Endyn kit today when I ran into a problem. The kit supplies you with two fittings with replace the plugs in the back of the block.
After taking the black box out, I can only find one plug back there.
What do I do now????

I believe honda sells the fittings for the back of the block, you might be able to search and find the part number.........

you altso have two big umbraco plugs needed to be screwed out...

The hole from the blackbox is just plugged with the plug from the kit..

hangac1093

No...I have the fittings, Endyn supplies you with them, I am talking about on the back of my Block, where the fittings are supposed to go. There are supposed to be two allen head plugs on the back of the block. From pics I have seen, they are on both sides of the Oil filter. On my block there is only one allen head plug, directly behind the black box.

I only have one. I can't figure it out.

On the early b18a stuff the other thing that needs to be removed is the oil temp sensor. It is a 2 wire sensor that is fitted into a bung in the block. You need to remove the sensor and the bung and the endyn fitting fits into where the bung was. Don't worry about removing the sensor, it will not throw a code.

hangac1093

Thank you, it all makes sense now, so I can just get rid of the temp sensor?

I thought the coolant temp sensor is by the thermostat housing.

Do you have a Breather Can set up Chris?

Coolant temp SWITCH is on the back of the block on the A1's. You should still have the two large allen head plugs back there. Can you post pics?

On my car? Sorta on the stock B18b...but I have a custom one going in on my new setup here in a couple of weeks.

hangac1093

Ok I'll get pics up tomorrow night, I'm just lost, I figure it out, the back of my block does not look like pics I have seen online.

On the earlier B motor, there is a coolant temp sensor like stated.

Just use the one plug you do have to the right of the oil filter, and then have a fitting welded to your valvecover, or get a bulkhead type fitting and take off valve cover drill and put the fiting in, bam, there is the other vent for the catchcan.

Front or back of valve cover, doesnt matter.

hangac1093

I could, but I was reading a post by Z10Jim and says that the drivers side port, the one I don't have should not be used, when running a catch can.

check this out and scroll down to where he posted.

If it worries you then just run off the valve cover.

Ive just used the one on the back and the valve cover.

I changed setups made more power and now I run one catch can to the fittings on the back, and another can to two more -12an fittings off the valvecover.

look up tony1's setup. 4 large lines to a catchcan where his battery would be.

ps....its not really what would any of us do.....you need to create enough ventilation to relieve the pressures inside the motor and not to **** oil out everywhere. The diameter of the hoses you run has a big play in it too.

hangac1093

I think that one to the block and one to the valve cover will be my best bet.

Do you know if I will still be able to drain the oil back to the single passage on the back of the block?

It is a oil temp switch , just take it out and install the endyne fitting

That is a very good write up, but it doesn't slove my problem with the oil temp sensors in the way of my driverside plug

hybrid_KJ

Just remove the oil temp switch and bung like I said and you will be fine. That switch isn't even used. And just for everyone this is NOT the coolant switch that is located above this sensor/switch and runs a two wire nipple plug.

I have done this exact same thing many times on this block. That sensor/switch was only on b18a motors.
