Swapped in a 2001 Prelude SE H22A4 into 97 Civic Hatch.

A majority of the wires matched and the innitial wiring went pretty straight forward and it seem obvious what I had to ad.

Now I tried to wire it up exactly like the prelude because I originally expected to use the P5M computer. After my Honda dealer told me they couldn't remove the key emmobilizer I just went ahead and bought the AEM Computer.

Now after downloading the proper programme and looking over everything the motor will not start.

From what I can tell the only thing that is not wired in is the Electric Load Detector(I think it is the last wire in the D Connector) and the evap canister and Ptank sensor are plug in but not hooked up to the vaccum lines.

The motor makes an attemp to start(Kicks a couple times), and when I remove the number 1 spark plug it will barely run. the number one spark plug also floods.

Cylinders 2 and 3 seem to run(warm header) and the 4 cylinder doesn't run but it shows to get a little gas because the spark plug is blackened(But not wet like cylinder 1)

Now I hot wired the coil to make sure it had addiquet power and all injectors are getting the same power before turning it over.

So I am going to rewire the injectors completely today but can anyone give me an idea what I should also check?

 

sounds like your firing order might be wrong?

 

Okay, checked everything and all cylinders fire(Header is warm just trying to start it).

Hot wired the fuel pump(using the prelude one) and still won't stay idle.

It start smooth but as soon as it gets to 700 rpm it dies(like the fuel is cutting out) and yet when I remove a spark plug it will barely idle and die when I touch the throttle.

This motor only has 40 000 km on it(and surprising enough cylinder 1 is 20psi less then the rest) so I just need a little idea if certain sensors would shut it off if not wired properly. My wiring consisted of everything getting soldered, shrink wraped and taped so I am sure I wired something wrong.
