I ran into a few issues while doing a swap in my girls car this weekend. I posted here before with preliminary q's and followed instructions but this is new ****. The front mount (front of engine to drivers fender) does not fit. There is no MAP sensor anywhere on the B16A where my old civic EX motor had one right on top of the throttle body. Also on the back of my old motor on the back of the intake manifold there is a sensor moutned by a single screw with a vacuum line going in on the side and a 2 wire connector on the bottom. it is small and looks like a fuel pressure regulator (you know how they are all big and round at the top). I am wondering what to do about the MAP sensor (is it possible that the motor my B16A came out of had it mounted to the firewall?), and this "Mystery Connector" described above. I am also curious if anyone can give me help on what to do about this front mount??? Do I need a special one from liek Place racing or something? I am totally lost and anyone in my area that does hondas is a ******* putz. I have nowhere else to go.


Please Help.
Thank You.

1) you need the b sreies mount for that
2) the JDM engines dont have map's on throttle bodies, you need to get some small vacuum line and use the one off the stock engine. there is a nipple on the top of the TB for a vacuum line.
3) i dont have the slightest what you are talking about for the mystery connector

take a picture.

where do i get a B series mount for that car? noone around me can give me a straight answer!!!! So if I take the MAP out of throttle body on the stock motor it will have a nipple on ity that would accept a small vacuum line? I seen the vacuum line i need to hook it up to on the new motor, i just wasn't sure that map sensor would work! As for the mystery connector, if you look at the back of the stock engine, it is on the top left hand side of the rear or the intake manifold. Right underneath that is another connector in which the plug goes into a white thing that is attached to a runner on the intake manifold. It is held in by two screws. I do not know what it is for, but the new motor has that one as well and I have connected it ok - I am just using this plug to better reference the location of the mystery connector.

I believe you can use any 94-up b-series front mount for your swap. Just reuse the rubber mount that mounts to the frame.

The mystery connection doesn't need to be plugged in if it's what i'm thinking it is. Just make sure all the vac. connections are going somewhere or plugged and your good to go. Also on some 94-95 B16's the map was located on the TB but most are mounted on the firewall.

ok thank you. if i took the map sensor out of the throttle body of trhe old motor can i use it on the new one if i mount it to the the firewall or will it not accept a vacuum line?

Yes you can just zip tie the old MAP to the fuel filter bracket and run a hose to the TB. Will work fine.
