I have a OBD1 b18c1 dropped in a Civic 93 SI right now , stock harness and all. I checked all my sensors , firing order , fuses and connections in the engine, they all check out . When I try to start the car it just cranks but doesn't catch. Help? I'll be glad to provide any info you guys need or pics to help you guys help me start the car.

 

You need to be more SPECIFIC around here man.

Lets start with do you have
Fuel
Spark
Compression
Correct Mechanical TIMING

 

GROUND.

 

Sorry, finally got time on the weekend to do anything, checked fuel , spark and compression all checks out. Still got to do timing.

I have some loose wires on my harness right now i need help i'd-ing maybe one of these wires are keeping my car from starting? My first swap bare with me!

Under the Dash:
a.
These should connect am I right? they have the same color wire pin pattern but the plugs don't connect correctly.

Driver side engine bay:

c.
d.
e.
f.


Passenger side engine bay:

Thanks a ton! any help highly appreciated.

 

Yea what harness are you using?

 

Check to see if your getting fuel.

Check to see if your getting spark.

**Cant tell what most of those plugs are. The 3 wire white plug (c) is your Corner Light. The small plug (b) looks like a/c compressor. (e) Is going to be EVAP or Coolant Temp.

 

stock harness from SI.

Anyone have any input on plug A?

 

what injectors? and ecu?

Ground on tstat housing?

 

p28 , tstat ground is good, not 100 % sure on injectors, but they plug up perfectly.

 

Injectors were my problem with my swap. Car turned over, had spark and everything was hooked up and looked sound. If they've sat for awhile they may be plugged up with ethanol poisoned gasoline.

 

I'm going to try and buy some new injectors today.

Still no start guys. I just recently removed fuel tank and cleaned , forsure the gasoline has been sitting it looked yellow , kinda like **** to be honest , any idea what that might be. BTW This was a shell that was sitting . Replaced fuel pump, forsure getting fuel. Spark still there. Going to fully crack down on the compression today.

Also does anyone have the wire diagrams for all the electric under the dash?

 

check to make sure the distributor rotor is pointed at cylinder #1 TDC
