and engine shakes, when the swap was just put into and started up car ran smooth, then a few minutes later it started shaking and jerks. can't keep rpm constant. its weird
double check your wiring again.... # 4 & 9 are what controls ur firing, 10 is ur Intake air temp. 14 is ur idle air control valve and 20 is eletronic load detector sound like you have a bunch of wires crossed..... be care ECU are hard to find

i was told it could also be a bad distributor thats y the firing is off. i need to test that out. the thing is , the harness i m using rite now was converted from a DX to a B16a. Does it work for a Si D16a6???

ok now if i remember right the idle air and the intake temp sensor have the same plugs and due to there new location on the si intake. the idle air plug is easier to plug into the intake temp so switch thos and should take care of those 2 codes. and the electric load usuall is the ground on the thermastat housing.

i rewired the dx harness but code came up, then i got a SI harness to see if it fits but it doesn't. Plug from the engine harness to the body harness does match. So i m really confuse.
