may the great gods of the four cylinder engine guide this post to the right reader.

1992 jdm prelude h22a obd1 engine being swapped into a 1996 ex accord obd2a
1. about 4 of the plugs will can plug into four different places, these are two pin style plugs, If i understand correctly i should have one extra two pin plug left over since the h22 does not have two ECT plugs just one by the housing right, are these the green plugs?????

2. I have on plug on the chassis that is two pin that did not come out with the f22 harness, does this plug into the h22 somewhere or is it the one not used??

3. there is a small unit with a vaccum line going into the intake manifold and one going to some sort of device mounted on the fuel rail. The plug has two pins in it but i can't figure out what it is and if the ecu(p13) is looking for it??

4. I know that my 1996 had two o2 sensors but i can only locat the plug for one of them, i'm pretty sure that it didn't get cut off or anything but if their are two plugs for the O2 sensor which one should i use??

5. There is a cannister mounted under the intake manifold with vaccume lines running into it and a spot for a two pin plug,. is this the IAB, and all of the hoses except one are ran alreday back to the engine, where does the extra place go to. In this case i guess i'm asking for a better diagram or explaination of how the IAB works and where all it needs to be hooked up to.

6. I've been told that i have to run 93 octane in this engine, or at least 91, and with a compression ratio of 10.6 to 1 i wonder if this is true or if i could get away with running 89?

7. after running the wires up from the drivers side crank location to the dizzy, i and hooking up all the other wires, the pin out i was using said i should have a green to green, well i had a black from my ex accord harness and a white from the h22 harness left so just soldered those together, and i'm hoping this is right but i feel pretty good about this since all the other colours matched up but i just wanted to run that one by everone.

8. i ran a wire for the knock sensor/ and i have to add wires for the IAB are there any other wires that i have to add to the ex harness??

well its quite alot when i type it out but if someone can please please help me out i'd consider it worth a six pack at least.
thanks in advance

oh yeah the link is dead in the FAQ about h22 swaps, i did get one link going to accordinly done to work, not real clear on where to post or report dead links, but if this info is already contained in a thread then spank me and send me on my way.
thanks again.

You can report dead links to either myself or -RedneckDave-

It's not exactly a dead link though. It seems it's an archived thread and you aren't able to view it until you log in.

 

thanks i'll try that. took the fuel rail thing to the dealer and got nothing but nods. it seems even factory trained techs don't know what it is? the search continues.
thanks
