so i sold a complete longblock to this kid and he never used it. when i bought it back he decided to strip it off the sensors. Yay for me (not really)


so i did some searches and figured out that the sensor to the left of the oil filter is the oil pressure sensor.. but which one goes to the right of it. its a threaded hole about the same size as the one on the left. is that the engine coolant temp?

btw the motor is B18B1 to be used in an EG

thanks in advance for the help

probably the knock sensor

i dont have any other holes on my 94 b18b block, so im assuming thats it

dizzyroc88

i didnt think these had a knock sensor...

so the 2 sensors i need are knock and oil pressure.. that go on either side of the oil filter..

can i get a confirmation

Heylookits shawn

sounds like knock sensor.
im not exactly sure, but i think all b series had knock sensors

pdiggitydogg

what yr b1 is it? Depending on that, it may not have a knock, but i dont have this other hole on mine

dizzyroc88

i thuoght only the vtec blocks had em... im not 100%

as for the year its supposed to be 94-96ish.. but i dont have the head so i cant tell

pdiggitydogg

later ones did, as far as i know...but knocks are close to m10 (or is it m8) bolt size

this is my block, a 94:

your the man for putting up a picture...


see there that plug is to the right of the oil filter that for me is open...could i just order that plug and screw it and call it a day. plus the oil pressure switch/sensor witch is completey missing

pdiggitydogg

the upper plug, with the 14mm hex drive slot?
you should have 2 of those

the lower one, is where the stock pvc breather canister goes - it is not threaded

dizzyroc88

the the oil pressure is actually wats being pointed out...


ill take a picture of mine now that i got my camera.. hold on.

dizzyroc88

ok.. so now i got to get those 2 plugs.. plus the oil pressure thing

so then... this block has NO knock sensor (ithink)

dizzyroc88

pdiggitydogg

yep
you need those 2 plugs and an oil pressure unit
theres no knock

dizzyroc88

any special tricks to the plugs.. would i be ok putting locktight on it ornothing at all or something else

pdiggitydogg

i want to say hondabond/rtv sealant, but i cant remember exactly

dealer item?

autoparts store - permatex ultra grey is exactly the same for less than 1/2 the cost
