Default 89 Hatch DX w/ MPFI, Blown ZC, New D16Z6 Code 8 Won't Start HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

basically 89 dx, had an integra zc so i converted to MPFI, wit pg7 ecu

blew the zc

bought my boys d16z6 off his 94 ex. just motor, using my stock dx tranny and 92-95 clutch and flywheel. temporarily using the pm6 civic si ecu and MSD RPM window switch for the vtec (which we havent hooked up yet)

dropped in motor. everything is back together except for the radiator is still off. for the dizzy, we used the stock d16z6 dizzy which i know is obd1, but he wired to work with my harness, which he has done before with his crx si. for fuel injectors they are either si injectors or teg injectors not sure but i think they are obd1

started the car, but wouldnt completely start, kept acting like it wanted to.

not sure if it the MPFI wiring, injector problem, fuel issue, possibly spark plugs

ecu is throwing a code 8

any ideas ????

tommorrow i am buying new spark plugs and goin to the junk yard and snatchin so injectors off a 90-93 teg

you may have gotten the distributor wired to work for your car, but its stil obd1 , and the ecu is obd0. That chould be the problem, not 100% saure tho

yeah you need to use the obd0 dist.with the obd0 ecu. it does'nt exactly line up with the z6 mounts so it has to be modified. i've got some pics if you want to see them
