hey everyone i searched but i couldn't find one so i decided to make one. I own a 94 dx with a B18B1 swap. ECU is a B18B1 too. I'm stilling trying to fix the raidator as its broken because 1 tube is not getting coolant. I am running a CEL. Didn't figure how to use it but now i ran a ECU check on it and it showed up as 4 CKP - crank position sensor. Does anyone know where i can locate that or how i can fix that? Lots of help with be appriciated. This is my DD, right now i have a friend coming picking me up to go to work.

find the code that the ecu is spitting out

it sounds like your timing could be off so I would check that as well as the distributor cap, rotor, plug wire, and plugs

 

i had this problem 3 days ago, couldnt go past 3.5 then i replaced my distributor cuz everything in it was messed up and problem is gone

So it dies out if you don't step on the gas, and if you floor it you are only at 3,500 is this correct? You might want to check your throttle cable, and throttle bracket. Also check and clean the sensors on the throttle body with some brake cleaner..See if that works for you!

 

I tried what the FAQ's way but i don't know if i am doing it correctly. I stick the paper clips in the plug with the 2 blue wires and put the car to start and the CEL goes on then it just dies and doesn't come back no more. The CEL will only come back if i start the car up. I just replaced my dizzy not long ago, like only 2 1/2 weeks ago only.

 

I just had mine replaced like 2 1/2 weeks ago only.

The car doesn't die out it idols perfectly and yes if i floor it it revs up to only 3.8k. My throttle cable should be fine. I will try that thanks.

 

Distributor is bad, happened to my friend's EK Si. Just replace it...

 

i have this problem currently with my turbo ls

 

i had the same problem with my em2 after i did my swap. was a bad map sensor and i was in limp mode.

 

So i would just have to replace my Dizzy?

 

if you just replaced it, i would try the map sensor. i swapped mine out and it fixed my problem. worth a shot and cheaper than a dizzy.

 

Bump because i found what the code was but still finding where it is located.

 

Bump.

 

crank position sensor is down by the crank pulley... OBD1 cars do not have this sensor... i'm assuming you're using the OBD2a/b ecu? if so, get the jumper harness and ecu to switch to OBD1 and you'll be fine... OBD2a/b also had 2 oxygen sensors i beleive....

Could you possibly get me a picture of the location?

 

TTT

 

it's your distributor, just replace it, on my obd-0 b18a, cel 4 showed up , replaced it now im been good for about 3 weeks so far.

 

I would replace it but i don't have the money right now.

 

dont go crazy and try swapping the computer cause it can be in limp mode. i had that problem..if its not that then do whatever else u have to

What do you mean switch the computer? Do you mean the Ecu?

 

yeah i mean the ECU...
