screw taking the pin out :o!

damn after like an hour of trying to get the damn pin out of B2 to move to b10 for my mpfi swap, i gave up and just shoved the damn wire through the empty whole and shoved the harness back onto the ecu

i usually dont get up but theres only so many angles and so many tools you can shove into a hole that size

You need a tiny screwdriver, like the ones that come in the kit of like 7 at autozone.. probe the hole, and when you feel the bump, get over it and push... works every time.

Re: screw taking the pin out :o! (shivern)

i normally just cut and solder the wires. this way you dont have to try too hard and end up messing up the pins

The pick set I bought from them is not listed but those should work. And go to the junkyard and take some clips and practice so you can master it and get the clips out in seconds.

They could work but the autozone set is still cheaper after shipping.

You just gotta angle the Screwdriver 1.0mm towards the wire you want out and a pair of tweezers will work every time....

Just found this from Honda, thought it was pretty funny that even Honda knows how big of a problem it could be

Re: screw taking the pin out :o! (kid-honda)

Where are you guys buying this Honda tool at. My Honda does not carry them, so if someone can get me one I'll pay you. Any my question is usually your suppose to stick something in the middle, but in the pic I posted above, it actually looks like the tool goes in the above hole. Anyone know for sure ?
