Got my car started up today very surprised after 5ish months of sitting it started right up first turn of the key. i install my new corner lights and a;ll the bulbs connectors etc. put my HIDs in but they didnt work for some reason then later when i looked both the ballast fell from where i had stuck them with the double side tape i was really questioning using just the tape and now i regret it. hopfully i didnt mess anything up. if i have time tomarrow im going to wash her up and take some pick but im not 100% if ill have time im buying my mobile home tomorrow. going to start doing the mpfi swap sometime soon probably next week cuz im a be working all week. and i needa get a resistor box

my darn caer wont hold a charge for more then 3 days so im taking the alternator out and gunna have that tested. just got the resistor box in the mail so as soon as i get my car running good its time to take her apart again and so thew mpfi swap.


i got my alternator all disconnected and unbolted but i cant find a way to get it out from behind the engine the manual says to go threw the underneather but i cant get it passed my axle for the oil filters in the way
ANY HELP WOULD BE AWSOME

John The G

havent posted in a little while but i really havnt done too much.
i figured out the battery problem it was my alternator. took me alittle but londer then i thought it would but i figured out how to get the darn thing outta the engine bay and i had to cut alittle off the pivot mount cause the new one didnt quite fit in it cause it had alittle lip on in. i also lowered the rear a little bit but i havnt even gotten the front coil overs on yet lmao.

my next day off im going to replace my spark plugs and install the accel 8mm wires i bought a bit back

then i wanna get started on my mpfi swap which will be the first one ive done.

You could have just unbolted the master cylinder (with lines still attached) moved it to the side and bring it out the top.

Started doing the mpfi swap yesterday got every thing disconnected and removed but the dizzy. lost one of the intake mani bolts so i gotta go to the junjk yard some time before i continue less i can find it. the wire harness that was in the caer was terrible it looked so ratty and shitty. ill post pics later today if i can find my camera. i plan on trying to finish installing everything today but i need to get a few new hoses and like ive stated before this is the first honda ive ever wotrked on and have pretty much jus a general idea of what to do but its been going smoothly so far but that was just the easy part.

keep up the good work

John The G

still havent finished the mpfi i havnt had much time to work on it plus i snapped one of the dizzy bolt off in my head but i got it out WITH MY FINGURES how do u break a bolt that u can remove with ur fingures. also i forgot to mention that i some how put a hole in my gas tank so i ordered a new one and it jus came in yesterday. i plan on coating it with truck bed liner so that it wont rot on me again. before i start any of thet im going to get new fuel lines and a new fuel pump because mine likes to cut in and out and work somedays and not the next. im hoping that i can get the ecu plugs depinned and finish my wiring im hoping that everythings done right but this is my first time doing nethign major like this (which most of you probably its almost a everytime u buy a car thing lol) so my fingures are crossed.

havnt posted any pics because i dont have a camera anymore so that really sux lol kinda boring without pictures

John The G

well to update i pretty much got everything done with the mpfi swap. remember im a noob and this was the first time im trying it. well it didnt start it would turn over but wouldnt start. so i started looking around. spark wires were on wrong lol. put em on the write way but now the wires dont like to fit right and it looks funky but owell. i tried starting it. it started for like half a second and died but then it seemd like the battery was dead after it stopped cranking till i turned the key back. after a few more tiries i got it to start with an extremely low idle and when i touched the gas it died right away. i got it to start once again same problem so i wanted to c if it would stay wrong well it would as long as u didnt touch the gas pedal and the engine was shaking hard.

now i bought the mpfi harness premade and i followed his instructions which never said to swap the tps wires. i think im going to try that but i want a second opinion from some people that no what there doing.
