Hi,
here's the problem. My buddies d16y7 blew up (not sure why but it's dead)
so he got a replacement motor from a local engine seller.

The seller sold him a different but similar engine, from what he CLAIMED was the same era car. He also claimed that it should bolt right up.
Motor labeled as a z15b, i've never heard of that and have a feeling it's actually something else, feel free to correct me if i'm wrong.

The problem they are running into is this:
quoted from my friend...

"So, my old engine has a crankshaft sensor on the sproket. The new engine does not. I need the sensor to send rpm info to my computer. The crankshaft is a different diameter on each motor so we can't use the old sprocket with attached crank sensor...I'm sure some honda tech peeps know what to do..."

Thanks that does it!

 

hey just a quick question about that link it says that this will trick it even tho there is no CFK sensor now i have one on my d16y8(96 civic ex coupe) and its throwing a code 1336/1337 the code is something like limited or no connection to Crankshaft speed fluctuation sensor... now i have inspection in 2 months and need this fixed dont have money to fix it now will that link you posted work with my problem so my CEL isnt on because it wont pass emissions with the CEL on...thanks when ever you have time to answer it.

 

yea it'll work for you too, it's awesome! i used it for the same reason as above (d15b7 in a 98 civic)

 

nvm got it to work im hype that i dont have to pay any more that link does work!!!
