Default 89 CRX B18C1 Install issue: Distributor wire problem

Ok Im about frustrated as expletive, background history: bought a uncut 88-91 CRX SI Ef harness which got shipped from germany. I had my OBD1 harness from my 92-95 hatch B18c1. We hooked everything up including jumper harness to P-72 but I have 2 wires left over from the OBD1 dristributor that I cant find out where they go. the wires are blue/green and blue/yellow and there is no crossover on the harness. all the other wires are hooked up but there is no other wires. I will have pictures up tomorrow showing it but if you know anything please help me out, i need my car up and running by the weekend. Thx.

that is one of the ckp or tdc, cyp sensors. distributor sensor wires..

without that motor don't know wtf is going one and will not start!

look at the helms where it goes I think b14, b15 don't quote me on that look for yourself. I did this about 4 years ago..since then I moved on.

if your car was a dx you should have done the mpfi and got a obd1 conversion.. what you did is more work..

i have done this before so I know from experience.. using a si harness on a dx is a big non no..

sounds like you didn't get the Si harness because the Si harness has the blue/yellow and blue/green wires at the distributor - has a round 7-wire connector - is your distributor connector round?
