OK, what year and trim level. also, what are the 3 numbers in the middle of the serial number on the ECU.

it does sound like a vaccum leak, do you have any CEL? these are also symptoms of a map or O2 sensor going out.

 

man dude im at work right now but as soon as i get home i will let you know,

but the year of the motor is a 97 , im thinking the ecu says with red marker 97 civic and what do you mean by trim level ???

its going in a 96 ek hatch

 

anybody else has any ideas or suggestions

i was try to eliminate if you have swaped out the ecu, i guess i should have came out and just asked that.

anyway, just because someone wrote 97 on it doesn't mean they gave you the right one. there is a 3 digit ID # with in the serial #, also what type of motor?

 

i guees i just need to get more info on that i dont know it from the top of my head so , i will post in like 2 hours

 

i have the cu #
it

37820-P2P-A82

273-21426 LX

if theecu is from an automatic does that make a difference

yes, what motor are you using again? is this a replacement motor or are you upgrading to something more tune friendly?

yeah, i think it is for 97, but auto, don't quote me on that for sure.

 

well i was doing some ebaysearch and all the aouto ecus wre p2p-a82 or a81 were auto and the man- were p2p a43 or a41 a42 or a31 even a53

 

P2P is for a 96-00 Y8 engine from a Ex OBD2. I am positive you need a P28 ECU for your D16Z6 engine OBD1. Also I am pretty sure there is a difference in ECU with auto and manual.
