First off I didn't search, but I did when I performed a swap. B18B('95) into EK('96) It worked fine for a while now its dead(somewhat). Second the situation is this, I bought the motor thinking it was a 96LS, so I bought OBDII injectors, OBDII distributor, BUT FOR SOME REASON, I bought a 95 ALTERNATOR. CAN THIS BE A SOURCE OF MY PROBLEMS??

Also I have the 96LS ECU.

 

did you use the harness off you civic motor? if the dizzy plug in you sould be fine

 

Yes I did, my civic harness is also OBDII, so for some retarded reason, I cut and soldered the OBDI plug onto the harness. So every component is OBDII except the alternator, but it does still plug in.

 

well anyone know if this setup was bound to have problems?

 

pretty sure u should have that exact engine harness and that exact ecu. other than that i dont know, just from experience those are my tips for u.

 

you are saying you put the obd-1 plug on the harrness so you can use a obd1 dizzy? if so that fine if you match the right colors up



what is it going? spark? fuel?

 

Not the dizzy, the alternator. I cut the OBDI alternator plug off an OBDI wireharness and soldered it onto my OBDII wiring Harness that I used on the engine.

 

check your batt. fuse in the under hood fuse box. If your batt. isnt charging then thats probably your problem if the alt. is connected correctly.

 

I checked the batt fuse visually and the alternator at autozone. Batt fuse looked fine and the alternator passed. My car has been out of commission for about a month now, anyone in socal can help me? I dont think the mechanics really know what they're doing.

 

Another thing, right before my car died I was only have one CEL i believe it was 14, the IACV,
