I bought a motor and tranny, which was a B16A2. what I want to know is how can you tell what if a motor is ODB1 or OBD2 ? I need to buy a harness for this motor is why am asking.
thanks

 

One way is to look for a green vin plate on the motor. I think obd1 motors did not have knock sensor, so you should look for that also it should be a round sensor under the intake manifold, Not the oil pressure switch either.

 

well since it was more then likely stolen from a 99-00 Si I'm going with obd2b

X2, anything made by honda after 1995 is OBD-2. Anything made in 1995 or lower is OBD-1.
Correct me if I'm wrong haha.

Wow... lets fix that one

 

lol noone has answered this guys Q...
for one thing 0BD1 bseries have a knock sensor as well. really one of the only differences to the eye right off is crank trigger on the harmonic balancer pulley.

and it does teh guy no good to list what year cars go with which engines he has no idea what year it is..

but as far as I know B16A2 came in the 99-00 Civic Si as stated above.

 

...holy incompetents at its best...
your engines OBD2

the distributor plugs are different thats how I always tell.

obd-o has round white plugs
obd-1 has 2 grey plugs
obd-2 has 1 big plug

 

there is a green vin number plate on the the transmission, starts with "1HG". which ODB would this be? thanks for the help...

 

transmissions dont have OBDs

 

so how can I tell what year the motor was built , cause ODB goes by years right. Is there something on the block some where at where is shows something, help please.....thanks

 

On the head there is aseries of ltitle circle thing casted onto it that has numbers. The first circle with the numbers tells you the manufacturing year of the motor. Which will also tell you what OBD the motor is according to the posted years above.

 

round sensor under the intake manifold (bottom left side) as if you were behind the motor. the sensor is round and is about 1-2" away from the intrake manifold. Does this mean that it is an ODB1 motor? thanks

ok my motor is an ODB2 , what motor mounts do I have to use. Can I use the stock ones from my del sol? * 1994 honda del sol SOHC non-vtec... what about axels & shift linkage? thanks

 

i would search around. read through the faq's and stuff. that info can be found in there.

you will be annihilated here if you dont at least give a shot at finding the info yourself. you shouldnt have a problem finding that stuff.

ill even point you in the right direction...

1HG means your honda was built in the U.S. If you know what OBD came in the different years the 10th letter/number in your honda VIN # will tell you the year of the engine...A=1980, B=1981, Y=2000 etc. Except letters: I, O, Q, U & Z are not used. In 2001 it changed over to 1=2001, 2=2002 etc.

 

i have a 95 hatch and it is obd1 anything befor 92 is obdo anything 92 and higher is obd1 96-2000 is obd2 of some sort or another
