i have a 1989 hf with a zc motor that spun a bearing months ago. so i finally got a d16a6 to swap in... well i finally finished everything last night and started up the motor, well it was late at night so i ran it for a minute or 2. it was throw VSS #5, and that was it. and the car idle a little weird.. like it had cams or something...
This morning, i fix the VSS -speed sensor and the valve cover gasket because apprently my buddy didn't tighten the bolt or put any silicones for the gasket.(oil bursted out of the head n valve cover ) so i try starting the car. it started for about 15 sec, and it turned off... so i figured , may be i accidentally messed with the vaccumn, possibly the map sensor. so i check my code, it did flash #5--- i think...which is MAP sensor
the odd thing was that now i can hear the CEL click as it was flashing. something relay under the left side of the dasth by the fuse box.....and now everytime i try cranking it , i hear it clicks ... and the car won't start or stay running. it started for 1-2 sec and it turns off.... GREAT!!! i was all excited to get this car running. HT expert pls help me out mang !!!
