Default need help... dohc zc obd0 in a obd1 del sol... wont stay running.

i have a 93 del sol (obd1)... the swap currently in is a dohc non-vtec zc (obd0).

ive rewired the distributor according to what ive read and i have spark but it seemed alittle weak... its a brand new dizzy cap, a brand new set of ngk spark plugs... etc...

the car cranks eventually but wont stay running it shuts off... it seems as tho the car doesnt respond to the throttle. the only CELs im throwing are 19 and 21 for auto something and vtec b/c its a automatic p28 ecu. i dont have nething else except a d15b7's ecu. my cars a 5spd.

i tried swaping out TPS sensors (complete throttle bodies replaced from a d16a1 i believe out a integra). and im using an external map sensor from a z6 manifold just with a vaccum line going to the throttle body. can anyone help me?

i either need to know if its the wiring or if some sensor or somethings making it not crank if some ones been in this problem before.

also if anyone knows the wiring for a dohc zc's obd0 distributor converted to an obd1 ex wiring harness for a 93ish car please tell me or post a picture so i can go over the wiring once again. any input is greatly appreciated

dude, use your stock obd1 d15b7 distributor, and drill out the top ear on the distributor, and only use one bolt to hold it on - thats how i did it, and got a d16a1 to run in my **** :D
