obd1 engine from obd2
Hey everyone! i am doing an obd1 block and head in a 1997 civic with odb2 wiring. SO i have to switch out the oil pump because the obd1 engine doesnt have that crank sensor. i am going NUTS over here trying to get that crank pulley bolt off, (you know which one i am talking about 
) it just wont BUDGED. So now i am wondering, What if i just bought one of those obd2b to obd1 ecu conversion harnesses? Would i have to switch out any other sensors because i am using a obd2 intake manifold? if it would work, would i just leave the crank sensor plug, unplugged? OR could i just ground the crank sensor wires and just use the obd2 ecu? please help me. it will be the best thing in the world to me. i would EXTREMELY appreciate it. thank you so much, daveee

just use a jdm obd1 ecu and leave it unplugged. you are better off using a obd1 ecu anyway especially if you want to go turbo or just build an all motor monstor beacause any motor build has to be tuned, most company dont tune obd2 ecu's because there very sensitive, all you need is the conversion jumper harness
