If it's an Si, it's a 1.6 Otherwise, it's a 1.5. It also says on the engine... D15 is a 1.5; D16 is a 1.6.

look at the motor code on the left side of the exhaust manifold about half way down the block

if it has 16 in it its a 1.6 if it has 15 in it its a 1.5 liter

or just ask in the ef/crx forum because thats where people have similar cars to yours and they would know

one says d15 (92hp), and the other says d16 (dont think there is a d16 in a 90 dx). There is one in the Si model though (108hp).
