Default CRX limp home mode, wont rev past 2000 rpms help!!!

as my sn shows im a nissan owner ... im here trying to help out my brother, ive hardly messed with honda's to be honest so im pretty green when it comes to honda specs , my question is can i use sohc vtec injectors on a obd1 CRX ems ? please can someone help me out ... my mom dropped my brother injectors off me roll around and broke the outer surrounding on the tip of the injector and engine wont idle for **** ... im thinking the injectors are leaking cause it to idle bad , the car had a none vtec civic 93+ engine , he ran it with not oil racing me and got rod knock so we replace the engine with the 95 civic Si engine, it ran fine before and now wont idle and has a fast idle then dies ... any help would be great ... thanks guys

95 civic si injectors are high impedance
crx injectors are low impedance

You can't interchange them without altering your resistor box setup (high impedance injectors do not use a resistor box).

thanks man ... ended up getting new injectors .... now the idles great ... the crx had a 94 none vtec single cam 1.6 and we swapped it with the vtec 1.6 off a 95 civic hb with 89k miles and now it wont rev past 2000 rpms ... checked codes and 14 fast flashes = idle control valve right ? thats what alldata says ... but would that let it run in limp home ? check map sensor readings 1.00-1.12v at idle and at wot its at about 2.80v well within spec (1.0v -1.25 idle and 2.00-3.00v at wot) changed all the sensor over , including knock sensor ... i dont know much about honda ... im a jaguar/nissan tech mostly and anyone help me out thanks

i did check about 68 post about this but didnt find anything on d16 most found b16/b18/h22

I will but t was never connected with the old engine ... I have to get a new wire harness cause the wires and connector r missing ... Would a iacv cause a limp home mode? I've seen bad iacvs before and all it does it give a erractic idle

If the iacv is completely unplugged, I have seen vehicles have driveability issues.
