Ive been searching, But i cant find exactly what I'm looking for. So if you know of a thread that will help me, feel free to point me in that direction.

I Recently put a Y8 in my 96 cx hatch.
The motor is a 97 ex D16Y8
The ECU is a 98 Ex auto

The Problem:
It Does idle, But not quite as smooth as it should. Then if you give it throttle, It will die unless you let off.
It Can be somewhat driven short distances (if you baby the throttle)

The head has been surfaced, Valves seated, New gaskets
Compression is good and cam timing is set

 

THere are 2 wires that I know on a integra are easy to mixup next tot he throttle that can cause that but other then that Id say TPS

 

CEL codes?

Also triple check the mechanical timing.

 

No Codes
Mechanical timing is right on (because thats what we originally thought the problem was)
The two plugs is very likely possibility. Ill swap those and see what happens

 

You have your spark plugs swapped around?

 

No Sir.
Double checked that one too

 

You aren't drowning your chambers in fuel right?

 

Try replacing the fuel filter and then check the ignition timing with a timing gun:

 

i am having the exact same problem with my b16a2... i have done all of those checks and still nothing.

 

You Sir are a genius. Such a Incredibly stupid mistake. Fixed my problem!!
Still just a little rough sometimes, Need to make a couple adjustments here and there, But overall Good To Go!

 

What two wires are these?

 

One is the Throttle position Sensor, I honestly don't know what the other is

 

Is the car auto or 5pd? I assume auto with the ecu you're using?

 

The other may be the MAF sensor, I had similar problem on my EX when swapping over

 

Yes its an Auto :-(
