get urself a helms manual or one of those books from ur local auto parts store, look up what those sensors are left on the motor, switch over to the wireing digram and find out what those left over plugs are and figure out which ones go where

Ek's were only sedans and hatches, and NEVER sold in the u.s.

Do you have an LS harness? Use that.

Or get one.

The reason you have plugs left over is you're using an obd2 harness on an obd1 motor.

Make sense?

Okay, then you need the obd2 ls harness either way. You're right, they would both be obd2a

All I remember on the b18b swap I helped with was we used to Ls harness, anthony had to do some wiring, but it ran with no codes.
