Need Help on Finishing off Swap... B18B in Ek...
Hey Guys, I'm almost done swapping in a 98 B18B into my 98 hatch. I am confused about a couple things which I couldn't find anywhere. I already did the IACV repin fix. I have all sensors connected except the TPS on the back of the IM, and the Crankshaft Speed Fluctuation Sensor. I only have 1 more connector left which is closest to the TPS. Here's the questions,
1.) The new Throttle position sensor is also a 2 pin connector much like the IACV. And the old connector on my civic harness is a three wire connector. What wire gets spliced to what?

2.) Did anybody with this setup (98 LS in 98 CX) ever have the code 91 issue? I wanna know what to expect.
3.) I currently have no secondary O2 sensor (or a cat for that matter). What do you guys suggest to not throw a code? Could somebody provide a resistor value to wire to the sec. O2 sensor connector for now?
Also, I have these two plugs left over that I just don't know where they go. They're rather large so I guess they would be needed for something. Take a look at the pic and tell me. I know it will be something obvious, but I just can't see anywhere for em to go. Edit: Oh and by the way, they are located just above the Vehicle speed sensor on the tranny towards the rear left of the bay.:

Here's a pic of her. I'm pretty damn excited about having SOME torque.

If you have any ideas for any of the above let me know PLEEEEEZ! I'll be hitting the helm's up tomorrow pretty hard if none of you know off the top of your heads. Thanks guys!!

cant really help much but i was wondering if your car was auto before or 5spd? I am doing the same swap except into my 98 dx coupe and im unsure about what mounts im gonna need right now. I know i need the drivers side engine mounts and rear SiR engine mount.

Correct. I don't know if you're in canada or what, but you can just use the <U>SI</U> rear <U>BRACKET</U>... Not the mount itself. You'll need the rear bracket which is commonly referred to as the "T" bracket. In addition, you'll also need the SI driverside post which is bolted to the motor underneath the lower timing belt cover. That is it. After that, it will fit like a glove. If you need any other help, just im me on here.
