So i got a dizzy for my ef i put it on and when i crank it the dizzy wiggles does anyone know what the problem could be and if it is repairable the car won't start just turns over but wont run.

 

Bolt it down? Your description is hard to follow

 

did you remember to put a rotor inside...!!!

 

You have the dizzy 180 out, the thingy that drives it is offset so if its backwards it will make it move around.

 

@crxguy it is bolted down hahaha
@ chorizo ya bro it has a rotor
@ turbostd what do you mean I have it 180 out I was checking it out and noticed the gear at the end of the shaft has some play to it I'm talking about the gear that connects the dizzy shaft to the crankshaft is that normal because it slides side to side and wiggles a little bit up and down

alright guys so i got it started and it is misfiring like crazy adjusted the dizzy still misfiring but not as much drove it around the block and the check engine light came on giving me a code 4 this is the second dizzy the ecu gives me a code 4 what are the odds that two dizzy'swould have thee same issue I had to redue my wiring because it was stolen and the dizzy plugs on the side of the engine harness were cut

 

who did the wiring double check that ****!

 

I did bro I thought if you mess something up on the harness it wont allow the car to even start especially on the dizzy side I was looking at another harness to make sure i didn't mess it up but im gone double check it

 

The two prong thing on the dizzy only goes on the head one way

 

yes. the dizzy drive gear being lil loose is normal. and it connects to the CAMSHAFT lol

 

The dizzy and crankshaft are not near each other. Post pics because you're confusing lol but I'd bet on wiring. Plus code 4 crank position sensor. its not dizzy related that would be code nine. I assume you have an obd1 b series in you car? Or no

 

Okay my bad I meant camshaft I'm just frustraded with this **** and no its a d15b2 stock engine it was stolen and the dizzy plugs on the harness side were cut

 

Okay guys checked the wiring its good I got another dizzy from a friend checked spark plug wires ran it and its still misfiring and check engine light came on and the same code from the ecu which is code 4 can someone please help!!!!! I need my car running today

 

Look up code 4 and find out where that crank sensor is located and how to fix it. Sputtering/misfire s usually electrical or fuel related. All th wires on both dizzy plugs connected to the right wire? Like yellow to yellow and what not (just an example of colors said).

Is the b2 converted to mpfi and what dizzy and ecu are you using?

 

All the wires are correct and its a stock b2 so its dpfi I'm running a pm5 ecu with a td01 dizzy

 

Where in the hell is the crank sensor located on a d15b2 has anyone ever had the problems i have been dealing with

 

Okay so i found out that all early model civic had the ckp in the dizzy, is this correct? If this is true what are the odds that 2 distributors have the same damage and also I used my friends dizzy which is only like a week old and i am getting the same problem and code I need help solving this problem guys I need my car up and running by this weekend please help!!!!

 

Check this page out and run through the flowchart. More than likely since it's happening with 2 different distributors and 2 different ECU's then it's a wiring issue itself. Hope this helps you out. Good luck.

I had this same issue with my car and it was a connection that goes into the ECU that was missing it's other wire. Took me around 5 months to figure it out.

 

Alright thanks i have only been using my ecu. does anyone think it could be a bad ecu?

 

Use the flow chart that I attached, it will tell you if the ECU is bad or what the issue is. Just so you don't go out and buy a new one and figure out a wire was in the wrong place or disconnected.

In my case my car was converted to OBD-1 so I converted my whole car back to OBD-0 to figure out what my issue was lol.

 

Usually a bad ecu or something wrong it would be a code zero where the red light will just stay lit and wont blink and wont go off.. But which knows at this point it check everything. Of if worst comes to worst take it to a reputable tuner shop nearby they will get you straight

 

Alright thanks for the help im gone check it all out and let you guys know the outcome

 

Okay so i checked out the ohms on the dizzy side and all the areas that the guide told me and it was all good so I take it I have a bad ecu I found 1 for 20 bucks im gone buy it if the problem gets fixed than good if it continues im just going to have to take the car to a shop but thanks for all the help guys

 

i dont think your problem lies in the dizzy...sounds like more of a wiring problem...!!!
