Not familiar with that swap...but know its not plug and pla even with the ECU adapter. Someone will chime in who has done it...give it some more time.

If it runs for 5 seconds and dies, you dont have fuel in the lines... there is a fuel problem here...

i dont think its a fuel problem. if it runs then dies, that means the engine is getting fuel.

Trust me man, 4 wire were not in the wrong place... I have made over 200 dizzy jumpers, and NEVER once pinned it wrong... If you had a dizzy king dizzy it would look like it was pinned wrong because they use the same factory colors in the non factory locations(dont ask me why). If you didnt have my 0-1 ecu jumper, and you really had the hasport(frog) one, that could be another problem. There are 4 wires in different order for that harness as well(thats why online I ask you to verify ecu jumper when ordering a dizzy jumper). Please dont get online and say my products are wrong when they are not.

Thank you, Ryan

i didn't mean to say your products was bad , i was just saying that was the problem, i really never did an obd0 to obd1 swap before i just wanted to get the car started and i couldn't get any answers, i happy it all worked out , i didn't mean to say your products were bad.

what i actually had was an 89 crx si , i use your obd0 to obd1 ecu jumper, distributor adapter, and the stock wiring harness , no hasport , i think u got confused when u asked me about the hasport or i got confused anyways i got the motor from jazzproparts.com and they are a bunch of idioits which they screw me over not sending an ecu and other stuff i highly not recommend them, the distributor came with the engine , let me clear this up i had no complaints of rywire stuff , it's just frustating when the car don't start up thanks for the help
