I just put a B16A into my 90 CRX DX and it has been the swap from HELL!!!! We finally got the car running, but it wont idle. I can start the car, but as soon as I take my foot off of the gas it stops running. Then when I put the new 90-93 integra axle in, and tighten down the axle nut the wheel stops spining like the brake is on, but only on the driver side. What the hell am I supposed to do?

 

The axle problem is probably the dust ring. Its a little metal ring inside the hub. Did you take them out? You can pop them out with a screw driver.

The idle problem might be the idle adjustment screw or your throttle cable.

 

hey guys having the same problem it starts but once I gas it wants to cut out umm if you guys got a wire diagram for the 3 plugs where the ECU goes would be great..


ECU throwing a 5-6-7 if you could help me out would be great

 

ECU is throwing a 14. Do you think that were going to have to get the integra intermediate shaft also? I just seems like the axle is going to be to short and its pulling in the hub an when we tighten down the axle nut it is tightening the hub to the nut. Then I found out that its really hard to put the car in Reverse everyother gear is great just reverse? SOMEBODY HELP ME FAST I NEED MY CAR BACK!!!!!

 

You have just switched two sensors in wrong, your IACV sensor (on the back of your intake manifold) has the same plug as IAT sensor (which is on the top of one of you your intake runners) just swap them and it should run fine (code 14 is for your IACV) i did the same thing when i put my ls motor in my 4dr, as far as axels in my CRX I use everything from a 90-93 integra, including the intermediate shaft, and take the dust rings out of your spindals, it'll wear you axels prematurally, good luck

 

Now we got the engine running great... it is a little sluggish around 3000 RPM and jerks then, when it gets past there its great. Now it is throwing a 10 14 21 and 23 as the codes its a b16A obdo what am I supposed to do? Then I cant find 5th gear I have J1 transmission is that only a 4 speed? WTF SWAP FROM HELL somebody help me fast!!!

 

Code 10 is your air intake temp sensor and code 14 is your IACV. Did you switch the plugs around like it was mentioned in an earlier post? Code 21 is your VTEC solenoid. Do you have that plugged in as well as grounded? Code 23 is your knock sensor. Got that one plugged in? Don't forget to reset the ecu after you fix these problems.

whats a code 6?...i have a smal problem in my b16a swap when i put in reverse i bog and the rpms bounce then shoot up...nothing major but any ideas?

Yeah I can take out the two sensors and it doesnt do anything... How do I reset the ECU after I fix everything? And why dont I have 5th gear, I got a new shift linkage for the Bseries CRX off of Ebay, every other gear is easy to get to, but 5th and reverse. Is the J1 tranny only a 4 Speed?

To reset the ecu, you need to either disconnect the negative on the battery or pull the ecu fuse in the engine compartment fuse box. Do either step for about 30 seconds to a minute then reconnect. However, if you keep pulling out the plugs for the sensors while the car is running, it will keep throwing a code and you will need to reset the ecu. The J1 tranny is 5 speed. Where did you get your swap from? I assume you put fluids into the tranny? Hopefully it's not an internal problem with the tranny.

 

Ok I'm gonna go reset my ECU and yeah I put in the tranny fluid its just really weird I"m gonna try to tighten the clutch cable.

 

I got almost the same problem like you, but now everything is resolve..I WISHED i had never swap my car should of kept it SOHC D16a6..

 

How did you resolve the 5th gear and Reverse problem?
