00 si ecu is for a b16. that ecu is not designed for a single cam. Get a y8 ecu and you'll be right as rain.

You definitely have check engine lights, pull them and post them. The Z6 has no knock sensor. How did you wire the secondary O2?

I'm sorry but was the question ever answered as to why a dual cam ECU is trying to run a single cam engine?

More than likely, THAT is your problem. That and the ECU is OBD2B and the engine is OBD1 as was stated.

yes, you need an obd2b to obd1 conversion harness and a p28.
also 2 wire IACV conversion, and wire teh vtec if you're using your dx engine harness.
also, what injectors did you use. y7 injectors are 190cc but p28 will want 240cc injectors.
you can use obd2 240cc(y8) or splice the clips for the d16z6 (obd1) injectors.
i put a z6 in my 97(obd2a) dx.

Are you NOT listening? You need a P28. Get one.
