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!!

 

bump---------> in case i run into this prob tomorrow.

I've never seen a honda tps with only 2 wires. I used to have a b18b in my hatch. It had a 3 wire tps.

Look closely. Those plugs have caps in them. They dont plug into anything. Just leave them where they are. I believe they are power and ground distribution, or something like that.

 

I got code 91 everytime i started the car up in the morning or anytime after letting the car sit for a few hours. I know for a fact that the 96-98 ecu's look for the fuel pressure sensor. So there is no way around it unless you convert to obd 1. To solve the problem just run an obd 1 ecu with a jumper harness and your set

Interesting. I'll be sure to check this again.

That's awesome news. If I didn't get an answer, I would've just tried to start it without doing anything with those anyways. Thanks

Anybody else for the O2?

Swap to obd1 or o2 simulator.

actually you can get around the fuel pressure sensor deal by using a potentiometer.
theres a chance a code could still come up at some time because the voltage wont be varying, but i wired one in on a buddy's car and havent had a problem in a couple of months...

yah, that's the route I was gonna take if i got the fuel pressure code.

thanks.
