hey whats up guys i have an 89 crx si and i dropped a d16z6 motor in it and used the dizzy off the z6 motor well my motor will start but then stops immednitely
any help

 

Is the Z6 you have out of an automatic or manual car?

 

its out of a manual civic

 

Is it converted from OBDO to OBD1?

 

did it start doing this immediately after you did the swap?

 

it has an obo ecu and i used the obd1 dizzy jus connected my plugs to it, and yes it stared doing it immediately after the swap

 

If it actually starts up then just dies a second later, that's a problem I had once too on my stock motor.

I was also noticing a distinct smell of fuel when I smelled around my injectors. This was because my injector O-rings were deteriorated. I replaced them and the fuel filter as well, and the problem went away.

I suggest you look into a fuel related issue as well, and replacing the O-rings and fuel filter is only like $15 of parts and one afternoon of tinkering.

 

yeah cuz it jus starts up then dies right after i took the line off the fuel rail and had plaenty of fuel shootibg out the motor had beem sitting for A WHILE BEFORE I GOT IT

 

Just a hunch, swap out your main relay and see if it still does it. I had a similar problem where my car would just die as I'm going down the road, I would stop and crank it over and it would start and run for 1-2 seconds and then die, if I tuened the key off and on a few times it would start and run fine til the next time. I just replaced my main relay and the problem went away.

BTW the main relay was fairly new too!
