Default 00 gsr swap in 96 ls integra not running right

I have tried everything I can think of and nothing works. I got the car with the swap already done and noticed the check engine light didn't work so I replaced it and jumped the ecu with a paper clip to see what codes it was running. It threw for map sensor, tps, speed sensor and iat. It runs decent with map unplugged but sucks down gas like crazy. If I plug it back in the car idles but pressing the gas just makes the throttle jump. When unplugged it don't do that. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Do you know anything about those sensors? It's possible that they are all just bad. You can voltage-test them under different conditions to see if they are generating the correct signals. Then you test the sensor leads in the ECU connector. If there is a difference, you've got a short or a bad ground. If everything checks out, it could mean your ECU is bad.

OFC if you've got known-good sensors you should give them a try.

i find it hard to believe that 4 sensors are bad but DIAGNOSTIC needs to be done.

I'm tired of people guessing and just throwing out fixes blindly. Either aid the guy in the diagnostic process or dont post.

OP:
You need to be certain that the plugs going to the connectors are actually plugged in and that they are the correct plugs for the sensors. Plugging certain sensors into the wrong plugs will burn the ecu.

first question:
Do you have a multimeter or a voltmeter?

second question:
do you know how to use one?

3 of those sensors have a 5v constant, ignition on, power going to them (thats the green/white wire on the MAP, TPS and IAT) which is controlled by the ecu.

the VSS has a yellow/black wire which is 12v with the ignition on, make sure its getting 12v.

http://technet.ff-squad.com/wiring.obd2a.htm (ecu pin and colors for 96-99 integra)
http://technet.ff-squad.com/wiring.obd2b.htm (ecu pin and colors for 00-01 integra)

Use the above links to determine that you have the correct connectors going to the correct sensors. It will also aid you in determining which engine harness is used.

I gave you the OBD2 links because most conversion harnesses have all the wires the same color and using the OBD2 schematics will make it easier.

get to work.

The tps sensor should be a 3 wire plug & have a red middle wire.
The tps sensor is located on the back of the throttle body near the firewall.
The map sensor is on the top of the throttle body and would be the other 3 wire plug on the harness near the tps sensor.

The IAT sensor should usually have red and green wires running to it.
If you mix up the IAT with other sensors it will generally melt the iat sensor and cause it to give false readings & throw no codes...
