those motors didnt come with a crank angle sensor,thats your problem,you have to get a jumper harness and an obd 1 vtec ecu,that obd2 ecu is calling for the crank angle sensor and there isnt one there,that will make it rev to only 3 k,its in like a safety mode

actually there is a second option were u can keep the ecu you have you wire the wire that usually plugs into the crank angle sensor and you wire into to your dizzy or directly to the ecu

what you mean reset the cel? we unplugged the battery then did the trick and then plugged the battery back in but heres the thing the trick is to use the signal from the ckp to trick the computer into thinking theres a ckf but the motor has no ckp i dont think how is it going to get a signal
