i had the same problem i put the b16a into my 95 hatch and i was throwing the same code. what ecu are u running?? i was running a p28 chipped for an sohc si and my check engine light was on and i had no vtec. switched to the stock p28 and the check engine light was turned off and my vtec engaged. then i put in a chipped p28 for the b16a and it was perfect.

USDM vtec solenoid valves have to sensors, while the JDM vtec solenoid valves only have one. If you running a USDM ECU and a JDM vtec solenoid valve you will throw a code.

i bought the motor from h motors online jdm b16 a 92-95.
im useing the harness from my 94 obd1 gsr motor and the p28 mugen chiped ecu.
now the ecu was remaped to a p28. but i tried my friends p72 computer and still
have the same problem. oh and i swaped vtec sylonoids with my gsr motor because i thought that was the prblem before my check engine light came on.

Try switching the plug from the pressure switch with the plug from the water temp. sensor. I know I had them switch around when I swapped in my B16A, but i'm not sure what code I was throwing.
