i just finished my swap this is what i did. i have a 93 del sol 1.5sohc non vtec i put in a jdm b16a u took the harness of the b series and put the 1.5 harness on (i have not wired vtec or knock sensor yet i was told by a lot of people that they are not needed for the car to run) plugged everything in put the motor in extended the map sensor wires put all the vacuum hoses on put everything together and went to start it and i have no spark and no fuel pressure any ideas

 

can you hear the fuel pump working? did the car run before the swap? check the main relay.

 

the car ran fine 3 days ago pulled the motor replaced with b16 and now no spark no fuel this sucks the main relay is fine tested it checked the fuses

 

how are you checking for fuel? is the dizzy on 180 degrees off?

 

pulled the injectors nothing shoots out and the dizzy is on correctly.

 

hard wire your fuel pump to battery see if it works, if it does then you have electrical problems. IMO both things sound like electrical issues if your car worked fine before the swap.

 

any ideas as to what type of electrical probs then im buggin already due to all the bs ive gone through for this wrong parts getting new ones that are still wrong it sucks

 

yeah run a wire straight from battery to fuel pump.......pull out a spark plug wire and stick a flat screw driver in it while trying to turn the car over and check for spark. how did you check the main relay? had a similar problem, turned out it fried my computer and igntion coil

 

stop buying new parts and just test everything by hardwiring first instead of replacing it.
As for what type of electrical proble i have no idea, could be anything cause i don't have anythig to work of but i say maybe check grounds both block and tranny as well as inside and see if your things that aren't workig are getting power.
IMO i think your problem is the fact you can't use a non-vtec 1.5 engine harness on a 1.6 w. vtec and don't understand y u would cause with a d16z6 engine harness everything will line up and work fine, get rid off your POS 1.5 engine harness and buy a 1.6 obd1 engine harness out of a 92-95. I have a d16z6 engine harness if you want one, it came out of a 95 civic ex 5 spd

 

have you checked all your grounds the ground on the thermostat will really expletive you up if its not a great ground trans ground bat ground altenator ground valve cover ground so many grounds check em all

so true. disconect the fuel line at the fuel rail then turn the key to on see if it shoots out have some one watching it though so you dont get too much gas everywhere. if you got gas there then it could be your injectors. probably your wireing though.

 

i swapped the b16 harness back in got it running but i have a missfire only at idle when its cold i think it is the ecu everything else looks good new plugs wire cap rotor
