I'm having a little wiring problem.

PIC NOT OF MY CAR
the wire in the pic... first of all my car is a 91 civic dx, and i put a d16a6, but the engine did not come with the wiring harnest, so i found a wiring harnest laying around that came off a sohc zc. the plug coming from the engine has 8 wires, but the one coming for the car has 12, what do i do.

thanks in advance

Did you do the appropriate modifications for the DPFI to MPFI swap? I don't know what's involved, but that may be your issue.

Also, are you sure that you are matching up the correct plugs - not trying to plug one of the connectors from the opposite side of the bay in there?

 

no i have it going the right way, the resister box is right beside the plug. but all the wiring for the dpfi to mpfi is confusing to me, do you know a good really detailed forum ? i have a si ecu, i have the resister box, i just need to do the conversion

 

alright, i did a bit more research, and from what i read, I'm suppose to use the wire harness that came on my stock engine ?

 

Yes you have to use the dx harness and wire up the resistor box. Look up on the faq thread under DPFI to MPFI swap
