Default 91 Sedan build. Recyclers dream !

Hello, This is my 3rd actual build. I've owned a few more cars but I actually really tried on 2004 DC5 type S Aspec

1997 DB8 GSR



and 2009 FA5









But now this is a different build. Its my 1991 Civic LX I bought for $1100 bucks. Theres a long story i might explain later but what I'm doing is a craiglist honda-tech build I'm buying parts and such mostly used or good deals and building this car. Some stuff has not been installed. I'm waiting for all my suspension parts to come up at the right price to do more.

First pics



Onto the molestation !

Some VW front lip... removed now.



Greddy Exhaust



Rota Jmags



ST lowering forks



Polk Audio Speakers



I bought male and female ends and modified them like so to make my connections and easily removable if I ever have to.



This is how I made my stock cable noticeable



hiding from the b*tch *** thieves !



CRX Si Rear disc conv



CRX Si MPFI swap

After doing the MPFI I'm having a problem with my vacum lines... It's not idleing right :-/ anyone have a diagram on how to run them on our cars ? Car almost dies when moving the throttle... and I've gotten a couple back fires from the TB...

I printed like 3 different DIY's and read through them and made sure everything is right... I just don't know what I did wrong

could be a timing issue, or ignition issue.

Well my timing was fine before the MPFI, I also did a clutch kit while I had the time. Maybe ignition... The clutchkit was so much harder than I thought, but now I can probably do it in about 3-3.5 hours

I also removed the Dashpot control valve, I might try to reintall it. Also my intake manifold doesn't have a fast idle control valve. That spot is blocked off, Could that be a problem since it's a 91 ?

Any one got a idea on what would happen if I switched the A5 and A7 cables from the ECU to the injectors ? I think I might have done that during the MPFI swap... I'm kinda running out of ideas of whats wrong

well 2 injectors would be firing at the wrong time if you did, so that would certainly cause a problem.

Damn If someone can mess up a MPFI swap I can. Well I just realized I got sold a Y8 intake manifold. So the fast idle senor is not there. i guess it's the slightest of my problems. I think I ran injector 4 and 2 back wards (those are coming from A3 and A7) that was a quick fix. It starts up and runs... better but not good. it Idles at 2000 when I go to adjust it and it goes under 2 it bounces the RPMs like it want's to cut off and sometimes back fires from the throttle body. I'm have a check engine code 4 (crank position sensor),5 (map sensor), and 10 (intake air temp) !

Can anyone give any advice ?
