exactly that is the most efective way of doing it what ever u do do not use a punch it will make the clip expand it has little teeth on it that tightin it so as he said just use that deep 8mm and a hammer and bang her out(i always had that problem to i got to the point of i just un bolted the whole shift linkage and dropped the trans and pulled it out connected

I didnt paint it I bought it that way, jsut looks rattle caned dont think its powdercoated. It will work for now, while I build the other block over time, gonna have doing that the right way. I cant wait til its light out so I can get this motor out, all I have left are 4 hoses the suspension stuff and that stupid pin then out she comes.

damn im trying everything to get that spring pin out I used the bolts and am beating the **** out of it and nothing it wount even move, am I missing something here?

B_CRUZ!

just keep beating it. my advice to you is to try to get the car higher in the air, so you have more room to swing the 4lbs. hammer.

JdmB16Eg6

keep on hammering

RaYnE

yeah just keep hitting it.
ive worked on that pin for like 45min before..its not cool. then my buddys dad came, took a few swings and it was out. its all luck i think..maybe i just loosened it for him. haha

2kEM1ebp

yeah I think its my fault it wasnt comming off I was using a rubber mallet and switched over to a regular hammer (couldnt find it girlfriend took it to hang up pictures nice!!!) anyway got it off in like 30 seconds, so all is comming good jsut slow, since its my first time, should have the motor out tomorrow, will post pics of progress tomorrow

2kEM1ebp

What kind of computer you gonna run now? You are going to have to disable some sensors... OBDIIB comps are gonna be looking for the knock sensor that you will not have, same with the CFS (crank fluctuating sensor) it is on the oil pump (if you swap the oil pump out then it should be alright). You will def. need a P28 and a conversion harness to keep from throwing CELs.

p.s. sorry I don't know about the oil cooler thingy...

I swaped out oil pumps, so that wont be an issue, where is the knock sensor located? i transfered all sensors from my old block to the new one, the old block is bare...

Built Beast

it is on the back of the block...near the oil filter. I will see if someone has a shot of it.

Edit: (Black plug) this may help you locate to see if you have one. https://honda-tech.com/zero...age=1 I don't think any pre-OBDII blocks had them, I could be wrong with the B16A. I <U>DO</U> know for sure that all OBDII ecu's look for the sensor, if it isn't there it will throw a code. The way around it is to get a P28 (92-95 civic EX/SI ecu) and a conversion harness. The p28 doesn't look for that sensor because the D16z6 doesn't have a knock sensor.

The back of the block totaly empty, where is the sensor, there isnt one sensor left on the block anywhere, the only thing I havnt taken off yet is the flywheel other than that its empty??? someone help me out here

2kEM1ebp

so im at a stand still i have to wait on the oil cooler and new water pipe to get things going again, I dont want to bolt the head on cuz there just isnt going to be enough room underthere to get the water pipe in right, unless I can find a shop around here that has one laying around and dont need it for a few days im done for the weekend

2kEM1ebp

heres the update, got the block swaped over got the head on and cams in timming belt on and valve lash adjustment done, had to oreder some parts so just waiting now, here are some pics of it back together.

Surebang

nice job!

2kEM1ebp

so the latest update still waiting on fedex to deliver some stuff tomorrow. I have the motor back together, tranny on and everything that can be done is done. The motor should be in tomorrow, hope to have it running by tomorrow night. Anyone have any tips for putting the motor back in??? Also how are you all filling the tranny fluid, a guy at a local shop told me to take out the speed sensor and use a long funel and fill it that way, any more tips?

2kEM1ebp

got the car running, got everything done today. runs smooth hard and perfect, very happy I did the work myself, not easy to about three weeks but very proud of the results. Thanks to all who asnwered pm's and posted up sugestions.

2kEM1ebp

so check engine light came on yesterday, just got the codes pulled. Showed slow response from the front o2 sensor, and load detector high voltage. Does this mean the front o2 sensor needs replaced? also what does that second one mean??never heard of anything like that before, any ideas
